Delivering a lecture on the Successes and Experience of Poverty Alleviation in China in Changsha, Hunan province, Song Xiaoping, from the Hunan International Business Vocational College, said his country had adopted a multi-pronged approach in fighting poverty. “Poverty is a major problem that plagues human development... It is an unprecedented achievement for China to fulfil the task of getting rid of poverty in the new era on schedule, achieving the largest poverty reduction in the history of human poverty reduction,” he said. Song said China had instituted institutional reform, social relief, and system reforms to alleviate overall poverty. He said the measures had resulted in a significant improvement in the living standards of poor people in his country. “The government adhered to the precise strategy, making policy according to individual and local conditions, and making policy according to the types of poverty, ensuring that by 2020, poor areas and poor people could enter a moderately prosperous society in all respects together with the rest of the country.” Song said education was the best way out of poverty and that preventing students from dropping out of school at the compulsory education level in poverty-stricken areas had realised the dynamic halting of dropouts. “People in poor areas can now receive treatment for minor illnesses in the villages as well as treatment for common and chronic diseases within their country. The comprehensive security system in poverty-stricken areas has gradually improved,” he said. “China’s poverty-reducing population accounts for more than 70% of the global poverty-reduction population in the same period, achieving the poverty reduction goals set out in the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 10 years early.” Song said China had also implemented tailored policies such as water conservation to 28.89 million people who previously did not have access to safe water and providing electricity to the whole population, among other interventions, to lift its citizens out of poverty. –NewsDay 📰 ‘𝗣𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁’ — 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀𝗗𝗮𝘆 🔗 ꜰᴏʟʟᴏᴡ ᴏᴜʀ ᴄʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ ꜰᴏʀ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇꜱ: Eliminating poverty is the common aspiration of people all over the world and the goal of governments and international institutions engaged in development work, a Chinese professor has said.
