Looking down from the clouds, the planet is charming and splendid.
During the multiplication of human beings, known as the primates of all things, splendid civilizations have been created, but in the history of each civilization, poverty always follows.
For thousands of years, the struggle between mankind and poverty has never stopped, nor has it been completely won.
According to the World Bank’s absolute poverty standard of US$1.9 per person per day, there are still more than 700 million people in absolute poverty in the world.
Today, humans can launch deep-space probes to explore the mysteries of the universe, and discover the gene spectrum to explore the magic of life, but poverty, this "silent crisis" still seriously hinders the development of human society, and is also the spread of regional conflicts and terrorism. And environmental degradation.
Is there no better solution to this stubborn disease that has always plagued mankind?

[Concurrent] Bai Yating, Representative of the United Nations Development Program in China
China's poverty alleviation is based on a top-down targeted poverty alleviation approach.
This requires people to fundamentally understand the nature of poverty at the grassroots and families, and find specific measures to solve poverty.
I think this is an experience worth learning for other countries.
【Commentary】
According to the "Millennium Development Goals 2015 Report" released by the United Nations, in the global poverty reduction actions, some countries and regions have been slow to advance and even have repeated iterations.

The reason why he received such a high courtesy was because his team of Chinese experts brought a local Juncao planting technology that would benefit PNG farmers. The widespread promotion of this technology benefited from the attention and support of Xi Jinping, then governor of Fujian Province, in 2000.

Juncao technology was invented by Lin Zhanxi in 1986. It uses grass instead of wood to grow mushrooms and solves the world problem of "fungus and forest contradiction".
In 1999, Xi Jinping, then deputy secretary of the Fujian Provincial Party Committee, gave instructions in the "Report on the Comprehensive Ecological Management of Small Watersheds in Ningxia". Encouraged by the instructions, Lin Zhanxi led the team to Ningxia to develop and use Juncao technology. In cultivating edible fungi, the average annual income of growers increased by 8,000 yuan, and a total of 17,000 farmers completely got rid of the hat of poverty. As a result, the fate of tens of thousands of people changed.
After that, the Juncao technology was extended to more than 500 counties in 31 provinces across the country, and thousands of farmers benefited from this. Under the recommendation of Xi Jinping, this planting technology, which has successfully benefited the Chinese people, went abroad in 2000. Came to Papua New Guinea.
In Juncao technology, the giant Juncao used as a culture material can be harvested continuously for at least 20 years after being planted in a year. Using it as a culture material instead of wood can cultivate 49 kinds of edible and medicinal fungi such as shiitake and ganoderma.
Juncao is particularly suitable for the relatively arid climatic conditions of Paxin East Highland Province.
However, it was a challenge to promote Juncao cultivation technology here.

I measured the ground, and measured it everywhere, how deep the surface of the ground is, and how hot it is. After I measured it, I found that the temperature was 23 to 25 degrees Celsius between 5 cm and 1.5 meters, which was very suitable for the growth of this mushroom, so I dig A planting ditch is placed in it for cultivation, and a piece of plastic film moisturizes it.
One two, one two.
【Commentary】
The villagers’ suspicion, anxiety when Juncao did not take shape, and half a year’s hard work, finally, the cultivation of the first batch of more than 20,000 bags of edible fungi was a great success, with a yield of 99%.

Carry out a three-year village-level poverty reduction demonstration.
In the three countries of Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar in the Mekong River Basin, there are six villages like Bansuo Village, which are carrying out poverty reduction demonstrations in accordance with China's precise poverty alleviation model.
At present, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar have completed the project expectations, and the lives of most villagers in the six villages have undergone tremendous changes.
Three countries and six villages, although the scale of the project seems to be small, it has played a very good demonstration effect.
These villages have now become a base for poverty reduction exchanges among Southeast Asian countries.
Subsequently, the three countries have successively proposed to continue this project, hoping to expand the scope.
At the 23rd ASEAN and China, Japan and South Korea Leaders’ Meeting held on November 14, 2020, it was formally determined to continue to implement poverty reduction cooperation projects in these three countries.
