Summary: Simply looking at GDP cannot reflect the economic strength of the two provinces. The provincial conditions of Shanxi and Tibet are quite different and are essentially not comparable. In the five autonomous regions, including Tibet, due to backward infrastructure and prominent ethnic problems, the central government's fiscal budget tilt towards ethnic minority areas has objectively boosted the GDP of these areas. Since the reform and opening up, Shanxi Province has not received much support from the central government, and its geographical environment is the worst among the six provinces in central China. The current situation that Shanxi's economy is backward and will remain in the backward stage for a long time cannot be changed in the short term. Problems such as a single economic structure, brain drain, and political corruption have seriously restricted Shanxi's economic development. So friends from other provinces can definitely visit Shanxi because there are really too many black spots. But I cannot agree with the view that Shanxi people are backward in thinking, content with the status quo, and unwilling to go out of Shanxi. When it comes to the drain of highly educated talents in various provinces, our large coal province ranks second, and I am afraid only the three northeastern provinces dare to rank first. The answerer is a poor student who started skipping school in kindergarten, a half-baked master's degree who graduated from the eighth-rate 211 program, and a student whose academic qualifications were demolished every minute in a state-owned enterprise with an annual income of 600 million, but his academic qualifications are at the top of the world. If the truth-clarifying respondent hadn't been for the fact that his father had been seriously ill for many years and needed someone to take care of him, he might not have been willing to return to his hometown to work.
Disadvantages: The original answer was slightly ridiculing, which had a critical impact on the hearts of some Tibetan brothers. I hereby apologize. It’s not that I don’t know who was responsible for incidents such as March 14 and 75, nor do I want to blame all these incidents on the Tibetan brothers. I just want to explain from the side that Shanxi Province does not have too intense ethnic conflicts, so it is difficult to obtain special “care” from the central government. . This is why the per capita GDP lags behind that of Tibet.
