On the afternoon of October 12, a donation ceremony was held in Dongyang Ethnic Village, Lingxi Town, Cangnan County. In the early stage of this activity, Cangnan County Association for the Promotion of Ethnic Unity and Progress was connected with Zhejiang Xinlong Construction Engineering Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Zongchuan Holdings Co., Ltd., and the main leaders of the two companies, as representatives of the village’s rural sages, jointly donated 1 million yuan for the construction of Dongyang Ethnic Village project. Ye Xindi, member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and Minister of the United Front Work Department, relevant leaders of the County Religious Affairs Bureau and Lingxi Town attended the ceremony.
At the symposium, the main person in charge of Dongyang Village reported the basic situation of the village in detail. It is understood that Dongyang Village is one of the three ethnic villages in Lingxi Town. The population of the She nationality in the village accounts for more than 60%. It has a superior natural geographical environment and profound historical and cultural heritage, including stone generals, centipedes playing pearls, seven stars dancing on the moon, tigers jumping off the wall and other attractions. Since the construction of beautiful countryside, Dongyang Village has further explored the culture of She nationality, and has done a lot of articles on the entrance archway, cultural square, dike fence, facade decoration of private houses, etc., adding auspicious clouds, phoenix and other elements with beautiful meanings to attract many tourists to visit.
Representatives of rural sages have said that rural revitalization is the No.1 project of people’s livelihood at present. We will continue to take “helping the poor and helping the poor and passing on love” as the purpose and “material assistance, spiritual assistance and spreading charity” as the responsibility, and continue to make contributions to rural revitalization and work hard to build our hometown into a happier and better place.
After listening to the report, Ye Xindi fully affirmed the development of Dongyang Village in recent years, and put forward opinions and suggestions on how to develop and strengthen the village collective economy and increase villagers’ income. He pointed out that pairing to help ethnic villages is an important measure to promote the revitalization and development of ethnic villages. Dongyang Village should fully tap its own advantages, make good use of assistance funds, and make more efforts to achieve the prosperity of the whole village in projects such as enriching tourism resources and wholesale marketing of agricultural products, so as to turn the true feelings of the two assistance companies into their strong confidence to get rid of poverty and become rich, and lead the villagers to become rich with practical actions.
