China has accomplished its poverty alleviation target of the new era as scheduled and achieved a significant victory that impresses the world. Through eight years of sustained work, China has lifted all rural poor population under the current standard out of poverty and nearly 100 million poor people have shaken off poverty. China has removed all poor counties from the poverty list, and eradicated absolute poverty and regional poverty. China will work to beef up follow-up support for relocated people to ensure that they can settle down, stay employed and steadily get rich. With the existing social security system providing basic support, the country will also help families with semi-able-bodied members find jobs nearby so as to ensure their basic livelihood.
