For thousands of years, the Chinese nation has been fighting against poverty. However, even in the "prosperous age" in history, people have never been far away from poverty. Before the founding of New China, China was the country with the largest number of poor people in the world.

After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the Chinese Communist Party led the people to declare war on poverty. Generations of Chinese Communists followed suit, leading the Chinese people to write the latest and most beautiful pictures on this land. In just a few decades, more than 700 million rural poor people have been lifted out of poverty.

In 2012, the baton of national rejuvenation passed into the hands of a new generation of Chinese Communists! At this time, there were still 98.99 million poor people in China. Not only were they huge in scale, they were scattered in places where traffic information was blocked, economic development was lagging, natural conditions were harsh, and mountains and rivers were blocked.

Xi Jinping said, this is our military order to the people, and this is also our solemn promise to the people. This is a battle. It requires a new theory, a new system, and a new method for 98.99 million people to take off the hat of poverty. The scale and difficulty of China's poverty alleviation development are unique; and the results achieved are huge enough to be recorded in the history of human development. The proportion of people living in poverty in China's rural areas dropped from over 60% in 1990 to 4.2% in 2014. China's contribution to global poverty reduction exceeds 70%. For every 10 people lifted out of poverty in the world, 7 are from China. China's development path for more than 30 years has contributed to the modernization of the world the "Chinese path"; and China's poverty alleviation path has also accumulated "Chinese experience" for mankind's anti-poverty. Helen Clark, Administrator of the United Nations Development Program, once said that China has pulled her people out of poverty at an unprecedented speed. “We call on all countries to share China’s experience in poverty reduction.” China’s precision poverty alleviation experience and wisdom, Make a positive contribution to global poverty reduction.

At the end of 2020, China has historically and completely got rid of absolute poverty, realized the dream of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, and fulfilled the solemn promise of the Chinese Communist Party to the Chinese people.
