In June 165438+1October16, the government of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region announced that Xiji County in Guyuan City had withdrawn from poverty-stricken counties. This marks that the Xihaigu area, once known as the "bitter world", has all taken off its hat and bid farewell to absolute poverty. The long-cherished wish of generations of Xihaigu people to tear off the poverty label has now come true.
Xihaigu has always received much attention. 140 years ago, some people lamented that this place was "miserable and barren." Forty-eight years ago, after visiting the Xihaigu area, United Nations experts concluded that there were no basic conditions for human survival. ''

The poverty in Xihaigu affects the CPC Central Committee. In the 1980s, the state launched the poverty alleviation and development plan for the Three Western Regions, and Xihaigu, as one of the three western regions, took the lead in poverty alleviation in a planned, organized and large-scale way. Over the past 40 years, the state has invested a lot of poverty alleviation funds in Ningxia to help improve infrastructure and industrial development such as transportation and communication, and opened up the channel of "internal communication and external communication" in poverty-stricken areas.
With the concern of the CPC Central Committee and the people of the whole country, the per capita disposable income of farmers in poverty-stricken areas in Ningxia has increased at an average annual rate of 1 1%. The poverty-stricken people who set up the file card to drink' safe water' and live in safe houses will be fully covered by the standardization construction of administrative village clinics, and children of poor families will drop out of school due to poverty in compulsory education.
