The development of Sanhe Village benefits ordinary villagers, demonstrating the vitality of urban-rural integrated development.

Chinese-style modernization puts people’s livelihood first. At the symposium on promoting the development of the western region in the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly put forward the major requirements of “six persistences”, one of which is “to persist in promoting the organic integration of new urbanization and comprehensive rural revitalization, and to ensure and improve people’s livelihood during development. “. By the end of 2023, the urbanization rate of my country’s permanent population will reach 66.2%. The urbanization of the agricultural migrant population has achieved remarkable results, and the urban and rural landscape has taken on a new look. At the same time, it should be noted that there is still a big gap between the western region and the eastern region, and the integrated development of urban and rural areas still faces many difficulties. There is a long way to go to implement the rural revitalization strategy in depth and consolidate and expand the results of poverty alleviation.

On the one hand, we must ensure an orderly connection between consolidating and expanding the results of poverty alleviation and comprehensive rural revitalization to ensure that no large-scale return to poverty occurs. As early as 2022, Chongqing introduced 23 hard measures to form a working system that links up and down, requiring village cadres to ensure that they spend more than 2/3 of each month eating, housing, and working in the village. The purpose is to resolutely prevent large-scale disasters from happening. The bottom line of returning to poverty. On the other hand, we should make good articles about rural “native products” to help farmers increase their income and find employment at home.

This is all a dream, not real, just a dream! “Except for dreams, she couldn’t imagine how her daughter could tell such a difficult experience.

From the perspective of regional economic layout, the county economy is the basic unit of the national economy and the link and bridge that adheres to the organic combination of promoting new urbanization and comprehensive rural revitalization.

In Shiquan County, Shaanxi Province, the local area has given full play to the cultural resource advantages of the land where gilded copper silkworms were unearthed and an important birthplace of pre-Qin culture, and has embarked on a new development path of “breakthroughs in tourism and leading the integration of multiple industries”. In Puge County, Sichuan, “Plateau Mugwort” leads the development of the traditional Chinese medicinal materials industry. As of the end of 2023, the county’s mugwort planting scale has reached 15,000 acres, with more than 650 participating farmers, and the average household income has increased by about 12,000 yuan. Only by basing ourselves on our own reality and giving full play to our comparative advantages can we develop county economies with unique characteristics, cultivate a number of strong agricultural counties, major industrial counties, and famous tourism counties, promote nearby employment and increase income for farmers, and promote the urbanization process according to local conditions.

Inner Mongolia regards the grid mediation model as an important starting point for grassroots social governance work, and establishes a “grid + mediation” working mechanism to stop conflicts at the grassroots level and let the “Maple Bridge Experience” burst out in the northern Xinjiang of the motherland. Strong vitality. Aksu City in Xinjiang is exploring the implementation of the “Civilized Practice Points Supermarket” model, where points earned in areas such as the living environment, changing customs, and volunteer services can be redeemed for rewards.
