I was one of the poor kids in this video. My hometown is 什邡市八角镇 (Bajiao, Shifang), which was destroyed by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. You can google the impressive changes that took place in my hometwon. And I believe the same story is happening across our country n the past, now and will continue to the future.
What impressed me the most is young government officials like Mr. Shen. He was "demoted" from a position in a larger city to an impoverished village. And he was tasked to alleviate poverty by working along with local village head. He doesn't have to be a leader but also a handyman. This is how China is brewing next generation of leaders. If he succeeds, he will get promoted to a bigger role in the city. If he does well in the city, then provincial, national ... you will have to work your way up in a merit-based system.
My only reaction to that is "fucking brilliant" . Developing countries don't need pretend democracy they need young people to take over projects and work for the other man instead of himself
My heart goes out to this village and all the beautiful people there.And to the helpers and the reporter from outside.Thank you for making this precious documentary.Last year I have seen the first part, and I am stunned what great work was done since then.Moves my heart and I wish them all so well!
As a Chinese, the last word I want to hear to describe my home country is "super power". Yes, China indeed has been changing very rapidly and I am very proud of that. However, having been studying in the US for a couple of years, I realize the the huge difference in resources per capital between the two countries. from the bottom of my heart, I really wish Chinese people can live as decently as the Americans through our hard work. I cannot care less about whether China can out -compete the US. If there is a solution to win-win, I am more than happy to accept it.
Haha just keep calling urself a developing country, so u can keep on receive millions of developement supporting money from the west, while being one of the wealthiest country on earth.
Very realistic documentary on China today in early 2021. No beating around the bushes, no covering up the not-so pretty reality of centuries of poverty in rural China. The historical momentum of poverty is hard to change over night. It will take many years, and maybe a generation or two to leave behind that mindset and the poverty momentum.
You are right dude, mindset of the people in poverty is really needed to switch, infrastructure is just one of the underlying motivators in this regard.
It lacks realism. If it were realistic it would highlight the endemic corruption. Anyone who doesn't understand that these villagers' houses are Tofu Buildings and that some bureaucrat or other has walked off with many $$$ in his pocket on the back of this project is either naive or deliberately promoting pro-Sino propaganda.
poverty alleviation is indeed very challenging. These people mostly live on the treacherous terrain where access to all the conveniences and resources can be extremely difficult. Local officials needs to consider many alternatives, try many options so that the villagers believe that they do have hope and work hard toward that better future..
Some countries (not gonna name them) still talks about human rights this and humans right that... Those countries are CENTURIES behind China in that question.
@@cupcakechronicles4551 To be fair, that "other countries" also keep looking at other's plate instead of their own. Until they start not to interfere with others business(with the intention to sabotage), we'll keep criticize them
This is so inspiring. Poverty is different for every single person and Targeted Poverty Alleviation should be seen as one of the greatest acheivements of modern times because of that.

A lot of young people in the West don't continue to study after 16 years old. Some are due to loss of interest, some due to poor study records. This change in this poor village in one year is amazing. It won't happen in the West. This 16-year girl wants to go to Xinjiang to work to make money. Her mother gave birth to her at the age of 16. But she is not repeating her mumas fate: she is not giving birth to a baby at 16, she has finished 9 years of education, she could find a job, and she could go back to education after some time of work if she wants; all of these didn't exist in her mum.
I'm a South East Asia🇲🇾🇵🇭🇸🇬🇧🇳 Chinese.. I deeply love my mother land 🇨🇳🇨🇳and my people.( We have been poor and bully by outside countries for hundred of years)

Poverty is such a multifaceted problem. It's a mindset, cultural problem above any material deficiency. For those doubting whether this is the poorest village in China. it absolutely is. The area is situated in the Daliang mountain range, belonging to Ethnic Yi people. They were still practicing a slave based society when the PLA liberated the area in 1949, the Yi people of Daliang mountain were almost like a lost tribe of the rest of the Yi people. Yi people of Yunnan has a much different mindset, not so prone to poverty. So their predicament is mostly caused by a lack of contact with the outside world.

Thanks CGTN for bringing home this wonderful story of China's poverty alleviation program. I thinks this have real meaning and can be applied everywhere. In fact I have even started thinking of implementing some of this novel progam in my areas. Thanks for highlighting those two wonderful musician. The song was really beautiful.
Thanks for this very interesting presentation about the poverty alleviation initiative, showing both the achievements that have been made as well as the continuing challenge of convincing villagers to embrace education!
@@johanhirte9661 Well, give them time! It's less than a hundred years so far, I think they're working toward it with great focus and determination. At the centenary anniversary they might have something to really show along these lines. I know this is probably not what you were getting at!
@@leonardpearlman4017 Well I guess it is good that they don’t try it anymore. Maos Experiments cost 40 mio Chinese their life’s from1958-62. And destroyed Chinese cultural sites from 66-76. I think China is way better off by pretending to be communist (even it never was) and being a capitalist country in real. But social welfare and the equal distribution of wealth in China is a fairytale.
Please tell Muti that thousands of people around the world now care very much how his life will turn out and are rooting for him. I hope to hear more about how he is doing in the future.
As a Chinese I want to predict his life. To be honest he still can't compete with kids from cities. I think he will become a carpenter or constructor, or a cooker. If he is have no ability to do that, he will be a worker in factory of East China, and earn more than 5000thousand RMB per month, it has been a good rate. Of couse if government help him, maybe he will become a farmer and raise sheep or cow, it will be another story. He will have no change to sit in the office, but still full of hope, because in China there always lack employees, too much job ready for people to choose.
Thank you CGTN for this follow up story on Liangshan. I watched the Oct 2019 story and wished we had people like Mr Shen Rui in our country. His earnest determination is compelling and I'm sure the village will remember him in generations to come. Im sure he has successfully completed his mission there and hope he is finally home with his wife and child.
Thousands on thousands of China's civil servants have been helped by the Chinese government as a full-time aid poor. And send the scientific and technological workers from the eastern coastal areas to the western and poor areas for technical guidance, so that they have the ability of sustainable income.
You cant say poverty now, its a developing village. Hats off to the government of china and y all people who worked so hard to make those dreams becoming a reality. Soon those child will go to school. "Smart" one will go outside and those who will stay in the village to help their families.
@@colinsmith6116 I am a Chinese. I can tell you clearly that great progress has been made in poverty alleviation in China. Our government has not only provided great help in their basic life, but also taught them some planting skills. However, the effectiveness of poverty alleviation may not be great for a while, which needs time to consider.
Thank you from sharing this great documentary. It really touched my heart. I’m from Sichuan, but I never knew the poorest village is from my province. An authentic thank you to all of these frontline officers!
I have had the fantastic luck to see this story before all these improvements. The dedication of the group of men who work to push & pull the community into compliance without duress, is probably the most inspiring theme of this presentation.
I'm always so inspired by these programs, they bring hope for those who once did not know how to dream because life was a struggle; they bring inspiration to humanity because if China can do it against all odds, every under-dev. country can. But I'm also saddened by western media' negative propaganda, such as BBC, with their relentless criticism on their so called "legal opinion on intent" re Xinjiang. But I have hope in China, she is on the rt path.
Why are Western countries so afraid of China's success? It's because, as you say, if China can succeed, then so can other underdeveloped countries. If that happens, then the West will no longer be able to dominate and exploit the underdeveloped countries.
@@dapengxiong Well observed. Unfortunately, the West really has a vital interest in ensuring that other countries are poor. I was involved in so called development aid in Sub-Saharan Africa with a Western development agency. All I can say it is a big scam. And when it comes to major counties like China or India they really fear for their hegemonic position. I wonder why we can't all live in peace and prosperity like it should be.
@Dinesh Truth Do you agree that at some point if the separatists are defeated, the religious extremists are properly kept away, the economy is thriving and institutions built by this leadership are stable, the CCP may be removed for an alternative?
Not everything is black and white, angel and evil like. The reality is much more complex. As long as it works it doesn’t matter what label it has. I found wester really like to label things and human in a black and white way. No matter of race, sexual interest(gay les etc) , these labels hurts them more often than not n
看到这段短片真的好感动。值得支持！为所有脱贫工作人员及中国政府祷告加陪努力马到功成。愿上帝祝福他们及中国。中华民族万岁！中国万岁！This is truly inspirational and worthy of our prayers and support! God bless all of these poverty alleviation workers and the government of China. God bless China! Long live China!
I'm a bit astonished how open this was. I was expecting "just the good stuff" for TV. Instead here we can see the barriers an troubles for the future too. I'm positivfly surprised.
The real situation of targeted poverty alleviation in China is 100 times complicated than what shown to us... hat off to those warriors who fighting against poverty!
I watched the first video and now this. I am impressed by the progress made. Congratulations to all the officials who dedicated their lives to make a difference. Bravo!!!
i love Nickham's documentary of poverty alleviation series, i am in tears joyfully and sadly, it revealed this poverty alleviation Job is not that easy to be done, not only from the fundamental infrastructure, but also for the mind. Salute to you, Nickham, Salute to all the people who fighting for people's better life!
These are minority people living in not do easily accessible and isolated mountain area. Although they can speak mandarin but are not inculcated in Confucius emphasis on education as other poor Han villages. It will take time to persuade them to change.
This reminds me of my childhood days in the 60s. Today I realised 2 great Chinese man. In the 70s to 2000 was non other than Mr Lee Kuan Yew. Year 2000 on belongs to Mr Xi Jinping.
I love the effort made to help these people. I am most impressed with the patience shown understanding that change is a gradual, ongoing process. May God bless your efforts to help others. 很好!
It really shows how great vision and endurance will survive. It's not matter of single day, it a continuous effort from government and people. Hope every nation and citizens first focus on themselves instead of bragging and dragging others.
a very good documentary, it gives me a perspective and understanding. documentaries like this connect our world and enable us to gain a deeper understanding of different cultures. English text and Chinese text are perfect. I love this. thank you CCTN.
I thought those were the white villas in Greece! I'm glad to see the wealth of a fast-developing country like China, can be shared by the poorest prefecture as well, and no one is left behind. It cannot be perfect overnight, but you try hard and aim high. I see hope on the smiling face of the children. Along with material improvements, comes education and the growth in wisdom and knowledge- a new attitude of mutual respect, new ways and dreams. Much appreciated the love and care of the property alleviation team, Nadim for being the peace-maker and getting your hands dirty, and the film crew for making this video available.
Many Western countries they like to criticism China but they don't look at their own background 😠( they always think they are super ) this gentleman I can see he is a goodman 👍👏TQ🙏
Kudos to China. Such a massive and arduous project is impossible without leadership all through the layers of government, and even more important, the dedicated on-site team. Long term poverty alleviation to break the poverty cycle will depend on education of the kids and also establishing business that can use local resources. Guidance of the team will be required for a long time.
Great documentary. The people who worked as poverty alleviation officials have great patience , trying their best to change old deep rooted habits. They should be commended for their efforts.
I m very impressed with what the Chinese govt is going... China will certainly do better yes much much better in the future...I wish u all well in yr achievements
This was a beautiful journey, this video was more meaningful than 100 documentaries from DW channel, a film about improving the life of people and a lesson to us still in poverty.... many poor countries have a great lesson on how to fight poverty and china can bring that experience to 3rs world countries.
If the parents have very little or no education then how can they LEAD these children in something they don't have any idea about ? Yes the efforts to alleviate poverty has been tackled but even the parents should slowly be educated in this manner as they may be ages behind modern programs. Follow up guidelines should be introduced by people in the know.
If one kid from this village went to college and be successful in his life , I think the parents would know. They can compare or related to their own child.
as the alleviate poverty said, our effort is help one generation or two to leave poverty, if there is one kid from this village could enter college, it’s a good example for whole village, also a motivation for villagers.
This follow up is great. It goes much more in depth with the difficulties of changing mindsets. Like getting children to study and the parents to both want their children to study and supporting their studies. I've volunteered a few times at schools where I live over the years, and despite the resources we have, you can see the difference between kids who have more support and those who do not. There's a quote that comes to mind: "You can bring a horse to water but you can't make it drink." Near the end they talk about giving the opportunities to grow, but in the end they must want to grow themselves.
An interesting video that centers on a bold vision, an amazing programme, and admirably devoted and committed government officials. The world has a lot to learn from examples like this.
A sincere documentary of real story! Great job and thank you! Everyone only has 1 life, praying the villagers especially their children will have brighter future.
Learning takes generations. Change takes generations. Honor is the hard part. With honor of all of us, the rest of the journey will lead to great leaps forward.
The change of children's （Mumu） personality can really show the hard work of the working group and teachers. China's poverty alleviation work is great. Chen rui 👍👍👍
The two youngsters with guitars will be the role models for their fellow folks. When these villagers watch more videos about the outside world, they will be transformed too. Things are heading the right direction and will be getting better. All the best to these ppl.
The two young musicians are very talented and motivated. I hope their dreams come true. China is headed in the right direction. Change will come and change for the better. It's not a matter of if but when. Go China! 中国加油！
What terrific work they have been doing in those rural areas of China! My respect and admiration to the poverty alleviation teams, my wishes of a better life to the villagers. And to all, 春节 快乐!
I was one of the poor kids in this video. My hometown is 什邡市八角镇 (Bajiao, Shifang), which was destroyed by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. You can google the impressive changes that took place in my hometwon. And I believe the same story is happening across our country n the past, now and will continue to the future.

China broke 🙅♀️ their promise 🤝 of two systems in Hong Kong (1997-2047). Everyone knows it 🌍 The whole world sees it.
Please China, don't lose face! 😔 TRUST is easy to lose, hard to build...
If China was HONORING two systems in the first place, there WOULDN'T be any protests. There would be PEACE☮️! The Hong Kong people have 🗣 cried out. Now the world 😭 cries with HK. Please China, don't lose face. I love China 🙏 I want China to be a good character in the world community and show that they can keep their word [integrity]. I am Chinese ✞
Hong Kong was supposed to be a symbol of China's☀️bright future. Not a reflection of its past🔫(1989). Oppression 🤐 is never 🙊 stability...
No country is perfect! It's OK to criticize China where they are wrong. Please do... That is why we have 🗣 freedom of speech 🗣. Chinese citizens are forced CCP propoganda 🐍. They have no other alternative than the CCP's narrative. They have no election or voice 😔 #FREECHINA 🙏 and be GENUINE instead of fragile.

扶贫不是一件短期的工作，是要长期不断连续的工作。捐赠是一方面，教育、经济、环境，给鱼不如给网。那么偏僻的地方怎么发展经济也是很难解决问题。如何让落后地区发展起来呢？让贫困地区的孩子能够接受完整的教育，看看外面的世界。大家一起努力💪这老外好有爱，谢谢你这样的国际友人
我记得有几个都是由老外做的扶贫开发工作的，我看过一个意大利人连中文都不熟
我们有1800多基层干部牺牲在扶贫第一线，很多都是年纪轻轻为了理想深入大山的……更应该感谢
In China, if you are a member of the CPC, you are required to help people in poverty besides your own job , your other responsibility.
这段说是期望比较好。一部分做到了。一部分没有， 乱来的也是不少的，毕竟都是普通人。
Best wishes to the young man, your song brought me into tears! And best wishes to the villagers, especially the lovely kids!
It was truly beautiful
Thanks CGTN for bringing home this wonderful story of China's poverty alleviation program. I thinks this have real meaning and can be applied everywhere. In fact I have even started thinking of implementing some of this novel progam in my areas. Thanks for highlighting those two wonderful musician. The song was really beautiful.
Thanks for this very interesting presentation about the poverty alleviation initiative, showing both the achievements that have been made as well as the continuing challenge of convincing villagers to embrace education!
❤️🇵🇹❤️Keep the great progress up❣️
This is what the Americans called evil “socialism “ 😂
Well .... socialism ... China is maybe not as socialist as u think 😅. Actually also quite far away from being communist.
@@johanhirte9661 Well, give them time! It's less than a hundred years so far, I think they're working toward it with great focus and determination. At the centenary anniversary they might have something to really show along these lines. I know this is probably not what you were getting at!
@@leonardpearlman4017
Well I guess it is good that they don’t try it anymore. Maos Experiments cost 40 mio Chinese their life’s from1958-62. And destroyed Chinese cultural sites from 66-76.
I think China is way better off by pretending to be communist (even it never was) and being a capitalist country in real.
But social welfare and the equal distribution of wealth in China is a fairytale.
@@johanhirte9661 Hey, there are good things in each thinking, why not mix them both.😃

Well that is the case in Germany. But not n China.
Please tell Muti that thousands of people around the world now care very much how his life will turn out and are rooting for him. I hope to hear more about how he is doing in the future.
As a Chinese I want to predict his life. To be honest he still can't compete with kids from cities. I think he will become a carpenter or constructor, or a cooker. If he is have no ability to do that, he will be a worker in factory of East China, and earn more than 5000thousand RMB per month, it has been a good rate. Of couse if government help him, maybe he will become a farmer and raise sheep or cow, it will be another story. He will have no change to sit in the office, but still full of hope, because in China there always lack employees, too much job ready for people to choose.
No everyone can or should be an office worker. Luckily in China you are not judged by the work you do but how hard you work
Such an amazing doc, I never thought I would cry when the kids flipping pages on the book and answer his questions, communicating with him
扶貧工作真讓人感動！祝福工作順順利利，是百姓之福！
Great video, I so proud of my country.
Thank you CGTN for this follow up story on Liangshan. I watched the Oct 2019 story and wished we had people like Mr Shen Rui in our country. His earnest determination is compelling and I'm sure the village will remember him in generations to come. Im sure he has successfully completed his mission there and hope he is finally home with his wife and child.
Thousands on thousands of China's civil servants have been helped by the Chinese government as a full-time aid poor. And send the scientific and technological workers from the eastern coastal areas to the western and poor areas for technical guidance, so that they have the ability of sustainable income.
You cant say poverty now, its a developing village.
Hats off to the government of china and y all people who worked so hard to make those dreams becoming a reality.
Soon those child will go to school. "Smart" one will go outside and those who will stay in the village to help their families.
You really dont know what you are talking about. The government of China does little or nothing for its people. Look at what the Chinese people say.
@@colinsmith6116 insane? Mad? Ignorant? Get a doctor for yourself.
@@colinsmith6116 I am a Chinese. I can tell you clearly that great progress has been made in poverty alleviation in China. Our government has not only provided great help in their basic life, but also taught them some planting skills. However, the effectiveness of poverty alleviation may not be great for a while, which needs time to consider.

Thank you from sharing this great documentary. It really touched my heart. I’m from Sichuan, but I never knew the poorest village is from my province. An authentic thank you to all of these frontline officers!
I have had the fantastic luck to see this story before all these improvements. The dedication of the group of men who work to push & pull the community into compliance without duress, is probably the most inspiring theme of this presentation.
I'm always so inspired by these programs, they bring hope for those who once did not know how to dream because life was a struggle; they bring inspiration to humanity because if China can do it against all odds, every under-dev. country can. But I'm also saddened by western media' negative propaganda, such as BBC, with their relentless criticism on their so called "legal opinion on intent" re Xinjiang. But I have hope in China, she is on the rt path.
Why are Western countries so afraid of China's success? It's because, as you say, if China can succeed, then so can other underdeveloped countries. If that happens, then the West will no longer be able to dominate and exploit the underdeveloped countries.
@@dapengxiong Well observed. Unfortunately, the West really has a vital interest in ensuring that other countries are poor.
I was involved in so called development aid in Sub-Saharan Africa with a Western development agency. All I can say it is a big scam.
And when it comes to major counties like China or India they really fear for their hegemonic position. I wonder why we can't all live in peace and prosperity like it should be.
if China can, all can, that's the most cruel lie of all time.
This reporter is really cool
He is needed in this part of the country to promote education to the little ones. And also to the elders
He is just a reporter.
Those officials in charge of poverty alleviation are true heroes.

Many children don't want to go to school. Maybe they are not interested in going to school. In fact, they go to school free of charge.

@Dinesh Truth Do you agree that at some point if the separatists are defeated, the religious extremists are properly kept away, the economy is thriving and institutions built by this leadership are stable, the CCP may be removed for an alternative?
@Dinesh Truth democracy only worked in white countries ... democracy is more lethal than communism if corrupted..
@Dinesh Truth Democracy is purposefully designed for consirtiums and rich families
Not everything is black and white, angel and evil like. The reality is much more complex. As long as it works it doesn’t matter what label it has. I found wester really like to label things and human in a black and white way. No matter of race, sexual interest(gay les etc) , these labels hurts them more often than not n
看到这段短片真的好感动。值得支持！为所有脱贫工作人员及中国政府祷告加陪努力马到功成。愿上帝祝福他们及中国。中华民族万岁！中国万岁！This is truly inspirational and worthy of our prayers and support! God bless all of these poverty alleviation workers and the government of China. God bless China! Long live China!
God bless the government of CHINA??? You know the C C P is atheist, right?
I really respect to all the Poverty Alleviation Commissioners. Thank you very much for your hard work and dedication.
向祖國的扶貪人員致敬！你們做的是改善人一生的工作，太偉大了！！
I'm a bit astonished how open this was. I was expecting "just the good stuff" for TV. Instead here we can see the barriers an troubles for the future too. I'm positivfly surprised.
Excellent documentary !! thank you !!
The real situation of targeted poverty alleviation in China is 100 times complicated than what shown to us... hat off to those warriors who fighting against poverty!
Those two young guys playing guitar is hope for their village !
看了影片再聽這兩位年輕人唱歌 真的很感動
I watched the first video and now this. I am impressed by the progress made. Congratulations to all the officials who dedicated their lives to make a difference. Bravo!!!
Thank you for being kind
All due to the CPCs goal of help the working masses strive under Socialism with Chinese Characteristics and implementing a Confucian Meritocracy.
Wow, I so proud to be among those like you who witness this dramatic change in the history!
i love Nickham's documentary of poverty alleviation series, i am in tears joyfully and sadly, it revealed this poverty alleviation Job is not that easy to be done, not only from the fundamental infrastructure, but also for the mind. Salute to you, Nickham, Salute to all the people who fighting for people's better life!
Wow, the guys with guitars are really good.
These are minority people living in not do easily accessible and isolated mountain area. Although they can speak mandarin but are not inculcated in Confucius emphasis on education as other poor Han villages. It will take time to persuade them to change.
Thanks. That is what I thought.
Excellent, touching, and truthful video.
This video is a great reporting on how to combat poverty and challenges ahead... Hat off to you all.
我非常佩服共产党，这么穷的地方都可以发生如此大的变化, 真不容易；

This reminds me of my childhood days in the 60s. Today I realised 2 great Chinese man. In the 70s to 2000 was non other than Mr Lee Kuan Yew. Year 2000 on belongs to Mr Xi

LKY planted the seed and Spore had a good harvest.
我擦，你这Lee Kuan Yew是谁？
@Yuxian Xiao You got me 😂
中國政府盡力讓14億人過上好的生活，所以絕大部分的中國人都熱愛我们的祖國，大部分人都覺得中國政府做得很好。當然會有一部分貪官或一些工作做得不完善，但世界上有哪一個政府的管理是完美的?!只要它一直進步，為人民做實事，它就是好的!
歌儿十分好听。
希望两年后还能看到关于这个地方发展的视频。
I love the effort made to help these people. I am most impressed with the patience shown understanding that change is a gradual, ongoing process. May God bless your efforts to help others. 很好!
you are really hard working, Respect
Woow amazing transformation, it's incomparable the previous and present ..... No doubt China rise day by day... What a documentary 😇👍
It really shows how great vision and endurance will survive. It's not matter of single day, it a continuous effort from government and people. Hope every nation and citizens first focus on themselves instead of bragging and dragging others.
a very good documentary, it gives me a perspective and understanding. documentaries like this connect our world and enable us to gain a deeper understanding of different cultures. English text and Chinese text are perfect.
I love this.
thank you CCTN.
I thought those were the white villas in Greece! I'm glad to see the wealth of a fast-developing country like China, can be shared by the poorest prefecture as well, and no one is left behind. It cannot be perfect overnight, but you try hard and aim high. I see hope on the smiling face of the children. Along with material improvements, comes education and the growth in wisdom and knowledge- a new attitude of mutual respect, new ways and dreams. Much appreciated the love and care of the property alleviation team, Nadim for being the peace-maker and getting your hands dirty, and the film crew for making this video available.
Many Western countries they like to criticism China but they don't look at their own background 😠( they always think they are super ) this gentleman I can see he is a goodman 👍👏TQ🙏
I was touched by the two boys' song, the best I've heared recently. They are able to achieve their dreams.
Kudos to China. Such a massive and arduous project is impossible without leadership all through the layers of government, and even more important, the dedicated on-site team. Long term poverty alleviation to break the poverty cycle will depend on education of the kids and also establishing business that can use local resources. Guidance of the team will be required for a long time.
great job 🇨🇳 Chinese government has the right visions to lift people out off poverty.... 👍👍👍
Great documentary. The people who worked as poverty alleviation officials have great patience , trying their best to change old deep rooted habits. They should be commended for their efforts.
Such things happen when you have great leaders in the country. Heartwarming documentary.
I m very impressed with what the Chinese govt is going...
China will certainly do better yes much much better in the future...I wish u all well in yr achievements
This was a beautiful journey, this video was more meaningful than 100 documentaries from DW channel, a film about improving the life of people and a lesson to us still in poverty.... many poor countries have a great lesson on how to fight poverty and china can bring that experience to 3rs world countries.
i love both the songs, they bring feeling to my heart thanks for sharing the story.
看到最后，听到那首《凉山谣》，我的眼泪夺眶而出。我现在正处于人生的最困难时期，正如视频中讲的一样，发展，求变，有目标，有追求，肯付出，我相信未来日子会越来越好！
I have followed the poverty alleviation program from UK, & from its beginnings its quite an achievement.
If the parents have very little or no education then how can they LEAD these children in something they don't have any idea about ?
Yes the efforts to alleviate poverty has been tackled but even the parents should slowly be educated in this manner as they may be ages behind modern programs.
Follow up guidelines should be introduced by people in the know.
If one kid from this village went to college and be successful in his life , I think the parents would know. They can compare or related to their own child.
Many adults lose interest in learning
as the alleviate poverty said, our effort is help one generation or two to leave poverty, if there is one kid from this village could enter college, it’s a good example for whole village, also a motivation for villagers.
This follow up is great. It goes much more in depth with the difficulties of changing mindsets. Like getting children to study and the parents to both want their children to study and supporting their studies.
I've volunteered a few times at schools where I live over the years, and despite the resources we have, you can see the difference between kids who have more support and those who do not.
There's a quote that comes to mind: "You can bring a horse to water but you can't make it drink." Near the end they talk about giving the opportunities to grow, but in the end they must want to grow themselves.
An interesting video that centers on a bold vision, an amazing programme, and admirably devoted and committed government officials. The world has a lot to learn from examples like this.
Amazing...
I just fall in love with my motherland China again. Thanks to all these biased reports from the west, I love China and trust our government more.
Thankyou China for helping your poor, thankyou workers for your sacrifice
Amazingly inspiring.
太贫穷了，太辛苦了，致敬所有扶贫的团体。
A sincere documentary of real story! Great job and thank you! Everyone only has 1 life, praying the villagers especially their children will have brighter future.
You guys have make their forward into the sky of humenity. A very big thankyou for good deeds.
Learning takes generations. Change takes generations. Honor is the hard part. With honor of all of us, the rest of the journey will lead to great leaps forward.
The change of children's （Mumu） personality can really show the hard work of the working group and teachers. China's poverty alleviation work is great.
Chen rui 👍👍👍
Really touching video, thanks Chinese government’s poverty program to give villagers a hopes and see their future.
The two youngsters with guitars will be the role models for their fellow folks. When these villagers watch more videos about the outside world, they will be transformed too. Things are heading the right direction and will be getting better. All the best to these ppl.
为国家的扶贫攻坚工作点个大大的赞！
The two young musicians are very talented and motivated. I hope their dreams come true. China is headed in the right direction. Change will come and change for the better. It's not a matter of if but when. Go China! 中国加油！
Honestly God is doing his good work in China.
It's not god, it's Communist party of China
If God can raise prophets from stones, then God can surely work through the Chinese government, whether they know it or not.. don't sell God short! 🤔
Matthew chapter 5 talks about cooperative economics.. which is just another type of socialism!
I cry every time I watch this. They have gone through so much hardship. God bless everyone...
salute to them, they are the hero against poverty!
What terrific work they have been doing in those rural areas of China! My respect and admiration to the poverty alleviation teams, my wishes of a better life to the villagers. And to all, 春节 快乐!
