摘要

China has achieved a complete victory in its fight against poverty. In December 2020, President Xi Jinping announced that all remaining rural poor population had moved out of poverty under the current stan-dard. That means 98.99 million im-poverished rural residents shed absolute poverty in just eight years. Up until the late 1970s, more than 770 million people were living below the poverty line, according to World Bank data.
