Cross-Strait joint interview held in Sichuan


They found it unimaginable that locals on this fertile land in the Sichuan Basin suffered from starvation from the late 1950s to the late 1970s.
It was due to a shortage of food that Xiangyang, then a people's commune, tried the household responsibility system in the late 1970s and became the first in China to abolish the commune in 1980, heralding the country's rural reform.
Sun said reform in China began in Sichuan and new opportunities for reform and development were also in the province.
Sichuan is creating multiple strategic opportunities for development, such as the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle, the Belt and Road Initiative, a new round of western development and opening up, and a national strategic hinterland, and continues to provide a high-quality business environment for Taiwan businessmen and enterprises, Taiwan compatriots and young people to come to Sichuan, he said.
