China News Service, Ruili, April 10th, title: "There is a beautiful place" under the new crown epidemic
Author Miao Chao
"There is a beautiful place in Luo, where the people of the Dai people grow up; dense stockades are connected there, and the crooked rivers are rippling with green waves."
This lyric comes from a folk song that has been sung for half a century-"There is a Beautiful Place". With the melodious accompaniment of Hulusi, countless singers sing it over and over again, sing the customs of the Dai Township. After people hear it, they all yearn for Dai Township.
What is rarely known is that this song extols Ruili City in the Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province, which is located in the southwestern border of China and is connected to the Muse City in Myanmar.
On March 31, Ruili informed the outside world about the sudden import of new coronary pneumonia. The reporter walked on the empty streets and alleys of Ruili for days and heard the sound of "There is a Beautiful Place" from time to time, and there was a trace of comfort in my heart. .
In the 1950s and 1960s, military composer Yang Fei was sent to Dehong to work and experience life.
One day, he came to Mengxiu Mountain and looked at both sides of the mountain. One side is the hometown of Gongmi, Zhefangbazi, and the other is the beautiful Ruili countryside.
Feeling sentimental, wrote "There is a Beautiful Place", which was later designated by Ruili as the city song.
The 62-year-old Duan Xuehui grew up in Ruili. She retired and re-employed to work in the Ruili Xing'an community. These days, she has been fighting the epidemic day and night.
When she grew up listening to "There is a Beautiful Place" when she was a child, she said that Ruili is "beautiful", with tall banyan trees, dense virgin forests, beautiful golden peacocks, uniquely shaped Dai bamboo buildings, and ancient Buddhism. Culture, unique national customs, and the jubilant Ruili River...
The reform and opening up has turned the beautiful but unknown Ruili into one of China's first open-up cities along the border, attracting a large number of gold prospectors.
Later, Ruili established the Jiegao Port Frontier Trade Economic Zone, developed border tourism, and explored the model of "inside customs and outside customs", which was a pioneering move in China.
After a series of actions, Ruili and Myanmar exchanged information, goods came in and out, and outsiders were bustling.
Created the miracle that China's border trade looks at Yunnan and Yunnan's border trade looks at Ruili.
Today, Ruili is a famous border trade and border tourism city in China, and its city scale has expanded nearly 20 times.
The prosperous border trade has brought intensive goods circulation and cultural exchanges.
When the new crown pneumonia broke out and spread rapidly around the world, Ruili was under unprecedented pressure to prevent and control the import of overseas epidemics.
On March 31, Ruili attracted attention due to the sudden import of new coronary pneumonia.
The reporter has been interviewing in Ruili for several days and has witnessed school suspensions, express delivery suspensions, bus suspensions, shops suspensions, live broadcast suspensions...a bustling Ruili instantly presses the pause button.
At the same time, we also witnessed citizens actively cooperating with home quarantine, all staff actively accepting nucleic acid testing and sampling, medical staff fully treating patients, guards on duty around the clock to prevent smuggling, the government fully ensuring the supply of daily medical supplies, and caring volunteer services on the front line of the fight against the epidemic. ......A Ruili who "fighted the epidemic" with one heart in the city.
There are still two days before the Dai Lu New Year Songkran (April 12).
In previous years before the epidemic, Ruili was a happy city. The whole city and tourists from afar gathered together to splash auspicious water and wish each other health and safety.
After 11 days of Ruili's fight against the epidemic, a turning point is ushered: April 9th, 0 to 24:00, 0 new!
The reporter saw on the short video platform that the Ruili people who were preparing to welcome the Songkran sprayed disinfectant alcohol on their bodies. They were quarantined at home for 11 days and shouted "Ruili, come on!".
More optimistic in calmness.
Today, China is speeding up COVID-19 vaccination in a safe and orderly manner, giving priority to ensuring that people in border areas such as Ruili can be vaccinated as soon as possible.
Duan Xuehui hopes that his hometown will get better as soon as possible, and that the people of Ruili will be vaccinated to build an immune barrier; hope that next year's Songkran Festival will sweep away the haze of the epidemic and reappear joy and harmony; hope that Ruili can restore the beauty and prosperity of its border trade city as soon as possible.
