As the Communist Party of China celebrated the 95th anniversary of its founding on July 1, the State Council Information Office has invited eight Party cadres to share their experiences working at the grassroots level.

As the deputy director at a poverty relief office in Hebei's Hengshui city, Li Shuangxing has introduced greenhouse growing to 152 poor villages over the past two decades. As a result, more than 67,000 farmers' incomes have been boosted to about 5,000 yuan ($769) per month from the previous 600.

"Greenhouse growing was a new concept when I started my work in Hengshui, most farmers were not willing to switch to the new technology from their old traditional farming styles," said Li. "My colleagues and I had to visit them house by house to teach them about greenhouse growing and persuade them to change."

He believed that if farmers could plant corn, they could also plant greenhouse vegetables that fetch a much higher price.

"All the visiting was difficult, but it was the only way to help local people rid themselves of poverty," Li said.

Du Jiazhu, Party chief of Fujian's Chixi village, has also dedicated his career to poverty relief. He said the mountainous village, with less than 2,000 residents, has suffered from a lack of transport for generations. Du said building roads not only helps bring the outside world to the village, but also gets people out of the mountains.

He has taken more than 80 village representatives to visit prosperous coastal cities, including Wenzhou, and developed a tourism business model to improve their situation.

"Our village doesn't have coal or a port, but we have beautiful views," said Du, adding that as the village's economy improves, he has encouraged young people to return. One of them established a tea factory in the village, which made more than 400,000 yuan profit last year.

Feng Cuiling has been the Party chief at Tianjin University's School of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology for 13 years. She said the school's CPC organization plays an important role in administration and development. "In addition to my work, I also talk to our students and the faculty to make sure they are happy working or studying in our school," she said, adding that she is a certificated psychological consultant.

The State Council Information Office has also invited cadres from the Tibet autonomous region and Heilongjiang province to share their experiences.

Nyima Gyaltsen, Party chief of a Tibetan village named Shoktong, leads local farmers to build roads and plant trees. In 2015, the average income in the village increased to 2,000 yuan.

"Helping people to live a better life, that's what a CPC member needs to do," he said.
