carried out 30 years ago, China has made tremendous progress in poverty
alleviation. The progress we have made is the result of a sustained
economic growth, a series of social policies for equitable development and
special programs for poverty alleviation taken by the Government. The
fundamental experience is that the Chinese Government has adopted and
formulated a series of strategies and policies suited for the country‟s facts
in poverty reduction in different development periods, shaping a unique
poverty reduction mode with Chinese characteristics.
