To live a better life: A preserved leaflet, a promise kept

.

Nestled deep within the mountains, Yunxi county in Hubei province was once gripped by extreme poverty. Today, however, its innovative industrial model is recognized by the United Nations as one of the global best practices in poverty reduction. This year marks the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China and the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Long March. In this episode, our host journeys to Yunxi to discover how the spirit of the Long March, forged nine decades ago, drives the dramatic transformation of this mountain region today. And the story begins with a single Red Army leaflet.
