Tibet to build on recent successes to raise residents' living standards

The autonomous region relies on localized policies and environmental protection to boost wages, as Cheng Si and Daqiong report.

This year, more than 140,000 people will be lifted out of poverty in 1,705 villages in 25 districts and counties in the Tibet autonomous region, official projections suggest.

Meanwhile, a work report released by the Tibet Leading Group Office of Poverty Alleviation in November said relocation and resettlement programs in the region will be completed by the end of the year.
