Luhe county allows nature to lead it to prosperity

By LI WENFANG in Luhe, Guangdong | China Daily | Updated: 2020-10-26 00:00

The mountainous county of Luhe in Shanwei, Guangdong province, did not have access to a freeway before January 2017, and only 10 percent of its 1,000 square kilometers of land can be used for farming.

Without significant manufacturing and commerce, many young people have migrated to cities in the province's Pearl River Delta region to work-mainly on construction sites-since the early 1980s, shortly after the nation's reform and opening-up started.

People were very poor, barely able fill their stomachs with the food they grew back then, said Chen Zhuangyong, Party secretary of Luhe.
