More targeted method aims to help balance regional development, build a well-off society by 2020

The government has decided to further target poverty alleviation by developing appropriate and suitable industries to boost economic growth and raise income in the least-developed areas.

The plan is a way of precisely alleviating these regions from low income conditions and poor living standards, part of a five-year program for poverty alleviation that was approved at a State Council executive meeting, which was presided over by Premier Li Keqiang on Tuesday, according to a statement released after the meeting.
