Dedication story
"If we leave, there will be no one in this land!" Zhuo Ga and Yang Zong remembered the words of his father for a lifetime.
Yumai Township belongs to Longzi County, Shannan City, Tibet, on the border of China and India.
In the decades before 1995, Zhuoga, her younger sister Yangzong, and her father Sanjay Tuba were the only residents on this land.
A house is both the township government and their home.
To this day, Zhuoga still remembers the scene where his father went through the boxes and found the red and yellow cloth used to make clothes, carefully cut and hand-stitched the national flag.
The father told them: "This is the most precious thing in China."
On that day, a five-star red flag fluttered in the wind with a border area of 3644 square kilometers.
In order to guard the border, Sanjay Tuba has served as the mayor since Yumai Township was established in 1960, and he has worked for 29 years.
In 1988, Zhuo Ga took over the baton from his father and served as the head of the township for 23 years.
There is no vigor, only to stand silently.
There is no rhetoric, only pure feelings.
For the sake of the peace and integrity of the country, they performed the most sacred mission with the simplest actions.
This is the background color of devotees.
On November 29, 1994, when Kong Fansen died in the line of duty, he had only two relics-8 yuan and 6 dimes, and 12 suggestions for developing Ali's economy that he wrote before his death.
Today, in the Ali Martyrs Cemetery, next to Kong Fansen’s tomb, clusters of red willows stand tall and tough.
In 1954, when 110,000 soldiers and civilians built the Qinghai-Tibet and Sichuan-Tibet highways, nearly 3,000 road repairers turned their lives into the eternal cornerstone of the highway to Tibet.
It is precisely with countless silent devotees, selfless strugglers, and builders who dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky. In just 70 years, Tibet has achieved historic progress that spans thousands of years.
At the Seventh Central Tibet Work Forum, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that the majority of cadres, especially Tibetan cadres, should carry forward the "old Tibetan spirit."
They are the creators, practitioners, and inheritors of the "Old Tibetan Spirit."
This spirit, in the continuation, glows with power across time and space.

Green story
Qiongnu rode a motorcycle, galloping on the vast Qiangtang grassland.
"I met Tibetan antelopes, Tibetan wild donkeys, and wild yaks today. There are a lot of them." As a field guard in the Qiangtang National Nature Reserve, he and his colleagues will patrol the reserve for more than 100 kilometers the next day.
It is their job to monitor and record the number of wild animals and rescue injured wild animals.
"In these years, the wild animals in the nature reserve have rarely been disturbed by humans, and the number of many animals has increased year by year." Qiongnu said with a smile, "protecting the lives and ecology of the hometown is a very meaningful thing."
During the calving season of Tibetan antelopes, Qiongnu and their patrols will be more frequent.
The Tibetan antelope, the "Highland Elf", has been endangered since the 1980s, and its population has increased from about 50,000 to about 300,000 in the past few decades.
In July, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during an inspection tour in Tibet, "We must firmly establish the concept that green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains, and ice and snow are also golden mountains and silver mountains."
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Tibet has accelerated the implementation of the ecological security barrier protection and construction plan, and issued the "Regulations on the Construction of National Ecological Civilization Highlands in the Tibet Autonomous Region" to promote the transformation of ecological construction from focusing on protection to proactive measures. So far, more than 12.1 billion yuan has been invested.
The country has always attached great importance to the ecological protection of Tibet. Over the past 70 years, 47 nature reserves of various levels and various types have been established, and 22 ecological functional protection areas of various types have been built. More than one part.
Green is already the vivid background color of the vast plateau.

Unity story
In front of the weathered Jokhang Temple, there is a monument of the Tang-Tibetan Alliance with a history of more than 1,000 years.
Professor Cidan Tashi of Tibet University said that the monument of the Tang-Tibetan Union is one of the important ancient documents in Tibet. The inscription reflects the Han-Tibetan "idea of happiness will never end" and bear witness to the long history of national unity.
Every day, many believers devoutly dedicate Hada in front of the 12-year-old Buddha statue of Sakyamuni that Princess Tang Wencheng enshrined in the Jokhang Temple. Many tourists go to the village to follow the customs and hold Hada in their hands, praying for the prosperity of the country and the people.
The white and flawless Hada is like a bond of national unity, connected to history on one side and the future on the other.
Nowadays, it is an indispensable etiquette to greet cadres who are sent to aid Tibet.
When inspecting Tibet in July, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that Tibet was jointly developed by all ethnic groups, and the history of Tibet was written by all ethnic groups. The exchanges between Tibetans and other ethnic groups run through the historical development of Tibet.
Xiong Hai, a 55-year-old cadre of the West China Fourth Hospital of Sichuan University, has assisted Tibet for two consecutive years. He organized and led a team to carry out free consultations in high-altitude remote agricultural and pastoral areas in seven cities in Tibet, benefiting 17,000 people.
In 2020, during a free clinic in Nagqu City, Xiong Hai’s team discovered that a 3-year-old child named Stiuta had congenital cataracts.
In order to allow the child to receive treatment as soon as possible, Xiong Hai immediately contacted the West China Fourth Hospital to assist the child to undergo surgery in Chengdu as soon as possible, so that he could see the light again.
"Dean Xiong Hai is our savior," said Styuta's father.
Since the 1990s, 9682 cadres like Xiong Hai have successively supported the construction of Tibet, contributed wisdom and strength to the development and stability of Tibet, and strengthened and consolidated national unity.

Harvest story
In the early autumn, all parts of Tibet welcomed the "Wangguo Festival", a traditional festival that lasted for thousands of years and changed fields to pray for a good harvest.
Lobu, a 79-year-old old farmer in Xietongmen County, Xigaze City, stood on the ridge, looking at the barley land that was about to mature and harvested, with great joy.
"I'm old, my legs and feet are not good, so I can't go to the field. Standing here and smelling the smell of barley, it's really fragrant!" said the old man.
The taste of highland barley is the taste of happiness.
At the moment, in the barley fields in the Tibet River Valley, the breeze blows the waves of wheat, and it is golden, like ripples of happiness in the hearts of farmers.
In July, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during an inspection tour in Tibet that the good days of the folks benefited from the good policies of the party and the state, and it was created by your own diligent hands.
It is necessary to implement the Party Central Committee’s policy of supporting Tibet’s development and comprehensively promote rural revitalization.
Over the past 70 years, the income of Tibetan farmers and herdsmen has maintained double-digit growth for 18 consecutive years.
In 2020, the per capita disposable income of rural residents will reach 14,598 yuan, which is 135 times that since the statistics were available in 1965.
As the only contiguous provincial-level poverty-stricken area in the country, by the end of 2019, Tibet has historically eliminated absolute poverty, and 628,000 registered poverty-stricken people have all been lifted out of poverty.
Today, together with the whole country, the Snow-covered Plateau will enter a well-off society, which will also open a new chapter in long-term stability and high-quality development.
