Yuan Shilan (L) and Wei Peishui of Miao ethnic group shows their ethnic embroidery work in Jige Village of Danian Township in Rongshui Miao Autonomous County, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, June 15, 2017. Jige village focused on the Miao embroidery industry to help local people to get rid of poverty.Due to harsh environmental conditions such as the stony desertification and mountainous landform, Guangxi has long been a less developed area in China. In recent years, local government carried out many measurements for the poverty alleviation work. Tens of thousands of officials and staff members helped local people build roads, repair houses, improve education and industry development. In 2016, more than 1.11 million people were liberated from poverty. The poverty-stricken population in the region has declined from 10.12 million in 2010 to current 3.638 million.
