China to raise poverty standard to 1500-dollar poor will return to 100 million

According to the new "Twelve-Five" plan, the next 5 years, China's poverty reduction standards will be raised. As a effect, the total number of poor people in some central and western provinces will increase significantly compared with last year, and the incidence of poverty is likely to rise sharply.　　To this end, our reporter interviewed the CPPCC members, China International Charitable Foundation consultant, China Poverty Alleviation Development Association executive vice President Linjia. Global poverty Reduction Achievement 70% The latest figures released by China's World Bank show that around 70% of global poverty reduction efforts over the past 25 years have come from China.　　If it does not include China, the world's poor have actually increased by 58 million people. Linjia, as a member of the Chinese Government's Committee of Experts on South–south Cooperation, proudly said that the Chinese government has always attached great importance to alleviating and eradicating rural poverty and has explored a path of poverty alleviation with Chinese characteristics. The reform of rural management system, which began in 1978, lays a foundation for alleviating rural poverty. 1986, the implementation of a planned, organized and large-scale poverty alleviation and development, so that the rural poor people's food and clothing problems are basically solved.　　Since 2002, the Chinese government has coordinated urban and rural development, and gradually formed a "big poverty alleviation" pattern which integrates industry policy, regional policy and social policy. In the past 5 years, the national poor population from 64.31 million to 26.88 million, the main county farmers per capita income increased to 3273 yuan, an annual increase of 10.28%, the country took the whole village to promote, support industrial management, the organization of labor force Transfer training, migration relocation, continuous development,　　To the depth of the poor areas of the continuous focus on such measures. Higher standards can result in poor people up to 100 million Linjia said that this year's poverty standards may be raised to annual per capita net income of 1500 yuan, compared to 2008, 2009 1196 yuan of poverty standards increased by 25%, the total number of poor people will increase, and then back to more than 90 million or even billions are possible.　　In addition, we must consider the serious threat of natural disasters, development imbalance and other factors, the next 10 years, the task of poverty alleviation is arduous, the pressure of return to poverty is still large. Although the new 2011-year standard for poverty reduction has risen sharply, it is still relatively low compared to the international level, even below India. India's poverty-reduction standards are roughly close to the average per capita consumption of $1.2 a day (at purchasing power parity).　　China, in 2008 and 2009, measured at purchasing-power parity, at a level of $0.89 a day.　　Linjia stressed that China's anti-poverty standards are to make the poor live better, not to solve the simple problem of food and clothing. In the next 10 years, the basic elimination of absolute poverty Linjia revealed that the next 10 years, the Chinese government will be the basic elimination of absolute poverty as the primary task, focusing on the special difficult areas as the main battlefield, and strive to 2015, the poor population significantly reduced to 2020, the basic elimination of absolute poverty. In addition, it will focus on the overall planning of the special hardship areas including Tibet, the four provinces and the three counties in Xinjiang. Beginning this year, through the launch of a continuous comprehensive pilot of the special hardship areas, centralized implementation of a group ofPeople's livelihood projects, such as education, health, culture, employment and social Security, strive to solve the bottleneck problem of restricting development.
