At this year's Two Sessions, CGTN's Li Jingjing met three National People's Congress deputies from villages in southwest China's Yunnan Province. Their stories tell you everything. One is a teacher who spent 40 years alone in a village that once housed many leprosy patients. He helped 126 children get an education and see the world outside of the isolated mountains. One is a young entrepreneur who led his fellow villagers to turn pig farming into a modern industry, earning much more income than before. One is a village Party secretary, known among villagers as the leader to solve their long-standing water shortage. They are ordinary people rooted at the grassroots. And there are millions like them, quietly and persistently improving the realities of rural China, one day at a time. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Mon, 27 Apr 2026 14:30:12 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/50c26e8e-a593-4298-a213-47afc006028f All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
