According to Wang, the acting governor, the problem of absolute poverty that had plagued Yunnan for thousands of years has been solved. The province lifted its remaining 442,200 impoverished people out of poverty in 2020.
The 11 ethnic minority groups in the province with relatively small populations, or which transitioned directly from primitive society to a socialist order after the founding of the People's Republic of China, also bid farewell to poverty, said Wang.
