Hangzhou village earns good neighbor points

Villager Zhu Lihua, 50, said at the peak, her account had more than 300,000 points, which she earned mostly through strict garbage sorting.

"I also earned some through voluntary work during the COVID-19 lockdown," said Zhu, who runs an excavator leasing company.

Wei Laifa, who runs a packing business at the village, said: "With the points on offer, fewer and fewer villagers would neglect sorting through their garbage."
