Naming of rural roads puts county in Shandong on path to progress

JINAN — As the Spring Festival break drew to an end, migrant worker Guo Diancai prepared to bid farewell to his beloved home, perhaps for another year.

Before leaving, he opened a satellite navigation map on his mobile phone to confirm once again that the country road leading to his doorstep had a name, which he believes provides a tangible link to his cherished memories.

"The next time homesickness strikes, I'll find solace in recalling a place with not just a village name, but also a road name and a doorplate number," Guo said. "Having all these details in one place gives me a 'location' to anchor my longing for home."
