ANSHUN, Dec. 24 (Xinhua) -- Five years ago, six-year-old Ji Xue and her family of Miao ethnic group started a new life. Thanks to the poverty alleviation efforts, they were relocated to a new home from inhospitable mountainous and remote area.
Supporting facilities in the relocation community where Ji lives now have become better and better over the past five years.
It used to take Ji more than two hours to walk to school by mountainous road, while it only takes less than ten minutes to walk from her new home to school now.
