Qingzhen has good record over past 5 years

Over the past five years, Qingzhen city in Guiyang, Southwest China's Guizhou province, has been unremittingly committed to the causes of poverty eradication, improving people's livelihoods, and common prosperity.

It established the Red Maple National Agricultural Park, adjusted its agricultural structure to focus on red maples, vegetables, fruit, tea and livestock, and has been elected as a national modern agriculture demonstration zone and a major vegetable production county, with the average revenue of its 181 administered villages hitting 1.4 million yuan ($218,400) annually.

The housing security problems of 1,344 households in Qingzhen have been dealt with, and the rural-urban water supply coverage rate has surpassed 94 percent. There are 1,966 poverty-stricken residents arranged to move from mountainous areas to urban districts and 17 impoverished villages removed from the poverty list.

A number of leading aluminum-based industrial enterprises have been introduced in the city, which now boasts 122 industrial firms above designated size. The total industrial output last year topped 37.5 billion yuan, doubling the 2016 figure. An advanced manufacturing sector dominated by the eco-friendly aluminum industry is taking shape in Qingzhen, with logistics and automobile trade thriving.
