Rediscovering their roots







With the drive for common prosperity expected to be comprehensive and long-term, the country is set to pursue it in a gradual and progressive manner, involving suitable areas that can offer replicable practices and models.
Zhejiang, one of the country's most developed provinces, has been designated a demonstration zone to forge a new path for inclusive growth.
The province aims to achieve common prosperity by 2035, with its per capita gross domestic product and the income and standard of living of urban and rural residents reaching those of developed countries.
As a key indicator of balanced development, Zhejiang's income ratio between urban and rural residents fell to 1.96:1 last year, significantly lower than the national level, according to provincial authorities.
Digitalization is set to become a major driver of growth in the province, empowering poverty reduction, public services and grassroots governance toward economic efficiency and social progress.
