China says it has eradicated extreme poverty from country
China declared that it has eradicated extreme poverty in the country. According to Chinese media, China lifted nearly 100 million impoverished rural residents out of poverty in 2020 after an eight-year effort in this direction. Chinese media, which often plays the role of Beijing’s mouthpiece, said poverty plagued China for thousands of years and this achievement was a ’victory for humanity.’
Yes they have eliminated extreme poverty by lowering the line of what they define as extreme poverty. Good job!
"CHINA HAS STOPPED ALL POVERTY IN OUR COUNTRY" (we just killed them and sold their organs).
Poverty is relative, as what China and the US consider the standard for their impoverished is not the same.
This is clearly false. It's a ploy by the state to set the stage for becoming the model with which all other countries adhere to
News: China abolishes poverty out of tin air. Also the News: China's biggest public billionaire seemingly dissapears. I see a pattern here.
This may be a translation error. What they really mean is that they "eradicated the impoverished" or made it politically incorrect to be in poverty officially.
Ye we eliminated poverty... Covid 19 is under control.... We only have under "100k" cases.... The math works here but not as China intended.... But I suppose in one way they might be telling the truth ....
When you kill of entire impoverished cities of course theyre not poor anymore; theyre dead.
What about the food shortages and blackouts from coal shortages?
"Mmmm... Papa, this rice is good. I have more today than I did last year. Why? Oh, and while you're answering that, where did all of the old people go?"
There IS a standard definition of extreme poverty, its 1.90USD a day. Its NOT relative at all. Half the people in extreme poverty in the world live in India, I read.
What a government spreading half truths and lies? Guess they figured if you can't beat em join em.
Capitalism lifted them out of poverty, not the Chinese communist party.
Eradicated or lowered their standard of poverty? I wonder if the Uyghurs, Tibetans, Taiwanese or Hong Kongers would agree
Ok. China also blamed Italy and the US for the wuflu
Bahahahahahaha!! Or was this the point of Wuhan-flu all along?
If like to believe it. But this is china news we are talking about.
Don't post articles we can't even read....
China is on that good stuff again.
This is total BS. What about all those abandoned kids & families in the mountains??
