The Communist Party of China (CPC) on Tuesday reiterated its determination to fight against poverty, pledging to step up financial support to impoverished areas in the next five years.
Ridding the rural population of poverty is the most arduous task for China's ambition to build a moderately prosperous society, according the proposals released by the CPC Central Committee on formulating the 13th five-year plan (2016-2020) for national economic and social development.
