2019年CRI 两会代表致力于改善农村居住环境

Yu Liufen is an official working in a remote village in a mountainous area in Guizhou Province. She said that the living standard of local residents has improved thanks to new roads leading into the village.

"We started the project to build a beautiful village four years ago. Now I'm proud to say that you can see cement roads leading into every village in Panzhou county."

Yu became an official at Yanbo Village in 2001. Back then, the village was blighted¹ by poverty, and each villager only earned about 800 yuan a year.

Thanks to concerted government efforts to build new roads in the region and industrialize agricultural production, in 2018 the villagers each earned around 18-thousand yuan. Apart from economic growth, Yu also stressed the importance of improving the local environment, and said that local leaders had invested huge efforts into making the village more livable.

"Today, 80 percent of Yanbo village is covered by forest, there's a sea of flowers, and countless² springs run through the mountains and plains. What's happened in Guizhou is not an accident. Local leaders took responsibility for it, and have been working really hard to achieve these goals."

Zhou Jianmin is an official who has submitted a proposal on environmental governance. He said that many challenges remain when it comes to improving the environment of the country's vast rural areas.

"The system of ecological³ agriculture and green agriculture has not been fully⁴ established. The excessive use of pesticides⁵ and fertilizers has not been properly controlled."

China's government has vowed⁶ to reduce the number of people living in rural poverty by over 10 million in 2019. To achieve that, the central government plans to allocate⁷ over 120 billion yuan to fund poverty alleviation⁸. China has set 2020 as its target to finish building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and to completely eradicate⁹ poverty.

Guizhou, a relatively¹⁰ poor province, is at the forefront of the country's campaign to eliminate poverty.

Official data shows that the province lifted 1.2 million people out of poverty in 2017.

For CRI, this is Guo Yan.

余留芬是贵州省一个偏远山村的干部。她说，由于修建了新道路，当地居民的生活水平有了显著提高。

“四年前，我们启动建设美丽村庄的项目。现在，我可以自豪地说，盘州市每个村都是水泥路。”

余留芬在2001成为岩博村的干部。那个时候，整个村子都非常贫困，村民年均收入只有800块钱。

中央政府努力在该地区修建新路、实行农产品产业化后，2018年，村民年均收入达到了1.8万元。除了经济增长，余留芬还着重强调了改善当地环境的重要性，她说当地干部努力让村庄更加适宜居住。

“今天，岩博村的森林覆盖率达到了80%，漫山遍野的泉眼，一片花海。在贵州发生的变化，不是偶然的，是必然的。这是因为有这么一批愿意吃苦，愿意承担责任的好干部。”

政协委员周健民今年提交了有关乡村环境治理的提案。他表示，要改善中国农村广大地区的环境，仍然任重道远。

“生态农业，绿色农业体系还没有完全建立起来。肥料、农药的用量还没有完全得到控制。”

中国政府承诺2019年实现农村地区1000万人脱贫。为了实现这一目标，中央拨款1200亿支持脱贫攻坚。中国的目标是2020年实现全面小康，彻底消除贫困。

贵州作为一个相对贫困的省份，正处在脱贫攻坚前线。

官方数据显示，贵州省2017年实现120万人脱贫。
