Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture is one of the main battlegrounds in China’s fight against poverty.Since taking up office in Sichuan Province last year,I have visited Liangshan six times to check up on the state of poverty alleviation work there.On this trip,I decided to conduct in-depth investigations of Butuo and Jinyang counties,which have the highest poverty rates in the province.This experience has given me some new thoughts regarding our efforts to win the fight against poverty on schedule and according to high standards of quality.
