I. Guiding ideology
Hold high the great banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics, take Deng Xiaoping Theory and the important thought of Three Represents as the guidance, thoroughly apply the scientific outlook on development, make clear the objectives according to the requirements for poverty alleviation and development in the new era, strengthen relevant measures, increase investment, assign responsibility, effectively strengthen high-level talent team construction for poverty alleviation and development, comprehensively improve the ability to study theories on poverty alleviation and development, the ability to practice and summarize, decision-making ability as well as the implementation and management capabilities under the grand pattern of poverty alleviation, aiming to provide strong personnel support and intellectual guarantee for the full implementation of the "Outline".
II. Basic principles
-Reality-based and future-oriented. Facing the reality of a relatively weak foundation of high-level personnel team construction for poverty alleviation and development, focusing on the integration of existing domestic and international high-level human resources in social science and natural science research area, to meet the requirements of the "Outline", we should focus on training reserve force of high-level personnel team for poverty alleviation and development to meet the long-term need of the cause of poverty alleviation and development, make overall planning, take all factors into consideration and make scientific arrangements to strongly promote the high-level personnel team construction for poverty alleviation and development.
-Not seeking ownership but use right. Based on this sector, facing the whole society, combine training and support and make organization and mobilization complement each other.
-Use-oriented, highlight the key points. To meet the needs of anti-poverty work under the grand pattern of poverty alleviation, in accordance with the poverty alleviation and development theory with Chinese characteristics, and to satisfy the demand for practical innovation and development, we should establish the concept of great talent, focus on the main task of poverty alleviation and development in the new era, recruit a large number of relevant talents, organize personnel training, make good use of the talents and establish a platform for high-level anti-poverty personnel to participate in poverty alleviation and development and realize their own value.
-Improve the system and make mechanism innovation. Grasping the law and characteristics of anti-poverty personnel development, focusing on the training of high-level theory and practice research talents, administrative management decision-making personnel and high-end innovative talents, we should explore the establishment of an incentive mechanism to attract, train and make use of talents, improve relevant systems and gradually establish a sound institutionalized mechanism for high-end talent development, use, management, training and update to promote the development of high-level personnel team for poverty alleviation and development.
-Social participation to promote development. Attract and tap social elites of research institutes, universities and all sectors of society to jointly participate in the theoretical research, practice summary, high-level personnel training and innovative practices for poverty alleviation and development. While increasing financial input of governments at all levels, we should mobilize various social forces to sponsor and support the theoretical research and high-level personnel training for poverty alleviation and development to actively promote the high-level personnel development for poverty alleviation and development.
III. Scope and objectives
The overall objective of high-level personnel team construction for poverty alleviation and development: By 2020, the high-level personnel team for poverty alleviation and development is expected to be gradually expanded with adequate back-up personnel reserve; poverty alleviation and development theory research capacity must be improved significantly, the policy level, decision-making ability and implementation capacity of the party and government leaders for poverty alleviation and development and the cadres of poverty relief departments must be enhanced steadily; and the lack and outflow of high-level personnel in poverty-stricken areas are expected to be addressed significantly. The scope of the implementation plan consists principally of the following three aspects:
-Poverty alleviation and development theory and practice research personnel. Integrate high-end theory research resources for domestic social sciences and natural sciences, establish a poverty alleviation theory and practice expert database with an appropriate scale to support the theoretical and practice research on poverty alleviation and development with Chinese characteristics, gradually expand the expert team and strive to achieve the goal of an annual increase of 100 in the number of researchers in the areas related to poverty alleviation and development.

（III）Transfer of employment of labors in poor areas. Mainly referring to trained migrant workers from poor families. The main targets receiving medium- and long-term trainings are young and middle-aged poor labors from needy families who have the desire to transfer employment but still stay in the countryside due to the lack of employment skills, or have the desire to enhance professional skills after employment transfer.
（IV）New workers from needy families. Mainly referring to the current and previous graduates under 25 years of age from needy families who have received nine years of compulsory education but not continue high school study or have completed high school study but not enrolled to universities.
III. Objectives and tasks
By 2020, to cultivate and foster high-quality grassroots leaders, entrepreneurial talents and practical talent teams with an appropriate scale, optimized structure and rational layout for poverty-stricken areas; to significantly improve the overall quality and self-development capacity of labors from needy families; and significantly enhance the employment competitiveness and entrepreneurship development capacity of the labors in rural impoverished areas. The specific tasks are as follows:
—Training of leaders of grassroots organizations and leaders for becoming rich. At least 300 leaders of grassroots organizations and leaders for becoming rich shall be trained per year for impoverished areas, and averagely at least 1,000 people shall be covered by the trainings of each province (autonomous region and municipality) every year.
—Practical talents training. To significantly increase the proportion of various types of practical talents for rural areas of the key counties, and train about 100,000 practical talents every year for poverty-stricken villages.
—Labor transfer training in poor areas. Through skills training, more than 600,000 persons in the central and western poor areas are expected to be transferred every year, and the employment stability shall continue to improve.
—Training of new labors from poor families. Through various types of vocational schools, to train 200 new labors of poor families averagely every year for each key county for national poverty alleviation and development and each contiguous poor area.
IV. Training methods
Under the system characterized by "overall deployment by central government, overall responsibility assumed by provincial government and implementation by counties", to meet the needs of different regions, different objects and different trainings, we should adopt different organization and training ways to carry out trainings based on local conditions.
（I）Leaders of grassroots organizations and leaders for becoming rich
Mainly develop talents with the ability to guide local villagers to implement pro-poor policies, develop local specialized industry and collective economy, and help them increase income and become rich through central government demonstration, provincial government organization, municipal and county governments' cooperation, social participation and centralized training, etc.
1. In cooperation with the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and other related departments, LGOP will select several demonstration training bases (points) nationwide and organize excellent tutors to carry out inter-regional demonstration trainings based on summarizing the training experience of various regions. About ten trainings will be organized every year for at least 300 person-times.
2. Provincial poverty alleviation department shall develop annual training plans (including the personnel development plan for national training and the training plan for local organizations) in accordance with actual situation and needs of local area, arrange training funds and organize the implementation.
3. City and county-level poverty alleviation departments should select and send relevant persons to take part in the centralized trainings according to the provincial training program.
4. Attract and make use of social educational resources to participate in trainings. Through joint school running and entrusted training, relevant poverty alleviation departments shall select specific training agencies from all levels of Party schools, administrative colleges, vocational schools and other relevant organizations to implement the training program, giving priority to representative industry demonstration zones, and develop individualized plans to ensure the effectiveness of training by means of theory explanations, interactive seminars, field research and live demonstrations.
（II）Practical talents and entrepreneurial talents
Focusing on improving the technological quality, professional skills and management capacity of the trainees, we should develop their ability to guide the development of local specialized industry and lead the local poor to develop production, participate in market competition, increase income and become rich, and enhance their ability to engage in the secondary and tertiary industry as well.
Specific methods: The provincial poverty alleviation departments develop the annual training plan based on the actual situation of the entire village advancement, centralized contiguous development and industrial development, combined with the development needs of local specialized industries. In accordance with various industry development needs or entrepreneurial development directions, divide the trainings into several types, including farming skills training, township enterprise management training, specialized cooperative organization training and rural brokers training. Through jointly school running with colleges, universities and research institutes, centralized training in industry demonstration zones, organize various types of professional trainings, determine different training contents and arrange the training funds. Through theory explanations, interactive seminars, field research and live demonstrations, enable trainees to master scientific knowledge and update ideas, thus develop their entrepreneurial skills.
City and county-level poverty alleviation departments should select people from poor villages to attend the centralized training.
（III）Employment transfer of labors from poor families
Support and organize labors from poor families to participate in job skills training to obtain intermediate qualification certificates or above, and organize job skills trainings for the employed poor to enhance their qualification level. Main methods: selecting training bases and organizing order-oriented trainings and directional output of employment.
Relevant poverty alleviation departments publicly select education and training agencies with professional qualification, a strong sense of social responsibility and good reputation as the employment transfer training bases, and announce the list of training bases and their enrollment scale, professionals, study periods, subsidy standards and employment destination every year according to the actual needs. Under the guidance of the poverty alleviation departments, the training bases hold order-oriented trainings and arrange jobs for trainees. Labors from needy families should accept the training agencies and professionals within the announced scope. The subsidy standards are reasonably determined by provincial poverty alleviation departments and financial departments according to the degrees of difficulty of different jobs, training time and consumer price levels, and adjusted according to changes in the actual situation. Subsidy approach is determined based on the actual situation of local area. In the regions with certain conditions, subsidies are directly delivered to poor households. In other areas, however, subsidies may be delivered through reimbursement of training agencies. Poverty alleviation departments are responsible for the supervision and guidance of the trainings and employment work in training bases.
（IV）New labor force of poor families
Through propaganda, capital subsidy and centralized training, the government should guide, encourage and organize new labors from needy families who are about to integrate into society to continue their higher or secondary vocational education or receive preparatory skills trainings for at least one year, aiming at enhancing the employment competitiveness and sustainable development capacity of the rural poor. The following two methods are mainly implemented:
1. Issue subsidies to guide trainings. For registered students from needy families receiving higher (Grade I, II and III) and secondary vocational (Grade I and II) education and preparatory skills training for at least one year (excluding the students in the internship stage), in addition to other subsidy policies, the central government issues a certain amount of subsidy to guide the junior middle school graduates not admitted to high school and high school graduates not admitted to the university from poor families to choose schools and majors by themselves and return to schools for professional education or training. Encourage local government to enhance subsidy standards based on the state-funded grants according to the actual poverty situation of the local poor and the actual consumption level of secondary and higher vocational schools, and the additional subsidy is issued by local financial department. Subsidies are mainly issued directly to poor households, not in cash.
2. Organize centralized trainings. Provincial poverty alleviation departments select vocational education institutions with good conditions and professionals with good job prospects and, by entrusted or joint training, under the premise of voluntary registration, organize the previous and current junior and senior middle school graduates from poor families to receive centralized secondary or higher vocational education or take part in preparatory trainings for at least one year. The government arranges jobs for them and provides follow-up services. The subsidy standards and methods are determined reasonably according to the degrees of difficulty of various jobs, training time and consumer price levels.
V. Safeguard measures
(I) Strengthen organizational leadership. Governments at all levels should strengthen leadership and management, include personnel development for impoverished villages into the overall planning for poverty alleviation and development and the target responsibility assessment system, and clarify the responsibilities of various departments to ensure that the objectives and management measures are implemented. Poverty alleviation departments at all levels should prepare annual plans based on local actual situation and actively coordinate human resources and social security, education, technology and agricultural departments to cooperate with each other to jointly promote the practical talent and labor force trainings in rural poor areas.
(II) Increase capital investment. The central government will gradually increase capital investment. Various provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) should also gradually increase investment according to the situation of local financial growth. Local governments should allocate a certain proportion of funds to support trainings according to local work needs and relevant regulations, actively attract social capital to support anti-poverty personnel development, broaden the financing channels and gradually increase investment in training.
(III) Strengthen advocacy. We should step up publicity and guidance. Through various media and in various ways, we should make comprehensive propaganda on relevant policies concerning rural practical talent training and labor transfer training in poor areas, popularize local experience in human resources development and the basic knowledge for labor transfer, development of modern agriculture and getting rich by entrepreneurship, publicize and study successful cases of shaking off poverty of impoverished villages and entrepreneurship in poor areas, mobilize and guide the cadres, masses and all circles of society in poor areas to pay attention to, support and participate in the rural practical talent training and labor transfer training in impoverished areas so as to create a favorable social environment for the realization of the goals.
(IV) Strengthen regulatory supervision. Provincial (autonomous region and municipal) poverty alleviation offices should establish the supervision and inspection system and organize regular inspections on the rural practical talent training and labor transfer training work in poverty-stricken areas, establish the statistical monitoring system for real-time monitoring and evaluation of effectiveness of the anti-poverty work, do a good job in monitoring the management of training funds, list the important contents of anti-poverty funds auditing, include it into the institutional management, and accept the special audit by relevant audit department. We should conscientiously implement the announcement system and regularly announce the use of training funds to the public to accept mass supervision.
(V) Actively explore new ways of training. We should strengthen the study of human resource development in poor areas, summarize and explore its objective laws, and gradually improve related policies and measures. We should continue to strengthen the study of labor market demand for talents, seize the new opportunities for employment and development brought by emerging industries, and choose industry development and human resources development projects that are not only consistent with the general direction of China's industrial development but also suitable for popularization in poor areas for key recommendation and support. Meanwhile, we should timely summarize, exchange and popularize new work experience of various regions to promote the work through demonstration, actively carry out various kinds of beneficial pilot work, earnestly study new ways for development of labor resources of poor families in minority areas, border regions and special impoverished areas, and actively explore new ways for trans-regional cooperation in vocational education and skills training to promote the education and training resources and job resources sharing between the east and west areas.

Set up under the principle of open recruitment, voluntary enrollment and selection according to relevant standards, the anti-poverty volunteer team mainly consists of experienced, skilled volunteers with knowledge advantage, including young volunteers, middle-aged volunteers (both from society or enterprises), healthy aged people and various types of experts as well. The above volunteers all have a deep understanding of the volunteer activities and have mental preparation and adaptability for their hard work.
（III）Establish volunteer stations. Volunteer station is an important organizational unit of the "Action Plan". To promote the establishment of volunteer stations by stage and gradually expand the area based on classified research, pilot program and experience summarizing, striving to basically cover 22 central and western provinces and autonomous regions during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period. The "Volunteer Station" is not only the base for anti-poverty volunteers to carry out relevant activities, but also the main source of information for grassroots poverty alleviation services and a window to make propaganda for advanced concepts in impoverished areas and among the poor.
（IV）Mobilize volunteers to carry out activities in poor areas. Earnestly make propaganda and provide guidance for the work, and strive to mobilize at least 10,000 people every year to participate in the poverty alleviation and development and provide the relevant services in poor areas in accordance with the "National Poverty Alleviation and Development Talent Development Plan (2011-2020)".
IV. Implementation mode
（I）Investigation and research. Based on summarizing the poverty reduction experience of existing volunteer organizations and individuals, select several counties, towns and villages in impoverished areas for classified research and pilot program implementation, make clear the situation and demands, find out the starting point and further enrich and improve the implementation plan of the "Volunteer Action Plan" from the perspective of feasibility and operability.
（II）Training and dispatch. Carry out targeted trainings according to the types of volunteers, including: 1. General trainings: volunteerism, volunteer groups, civil society and non -governmental organizations; 2. Project trainings: project description, the concept of anti-poverty volunteers, volunteer management system, project management, etc.; 3. Professional trainings: basic knowledge for rural poverty reduction, rural development methods, disaster prevention and relief skills, emergency preparedness and risk management, basic knowledge for government work, etc.; 4. Job trainings: job content and responsibilities, basic situation of the destinations, the history and overall situation of the anti-poverty work, NGOs and ethnic customs in the destinations, etc.
After receiving trainings, volunteers will be dispatched in a planned way through different channels.

【Assessment of poverty alleviation and development work】 On January 6, 2012, the "Methods for the Assessment of Poverty Alleviation and Development Work (Trial)" was printed in Document No. 1 of LGOP (hereinafter referred to as the "Assessment Methods"). According to the "Assessment Methods", we set up the Central Leading Group for the Assessment of Poverty Alleviation and Development Work (hereinafter referred to as the Leading Group for Assessment) composed of relevant persons from the Central Organization Department, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Education, the State Ethnic Affairs Commission, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Health, the People's Bank of China, the National Bureau of Statistics and Poverty Alleviation Offices. In March 2012, the Leading Group for Assessment, for the first time, carried out an assessment of the anti-poverty work of various provinces in 2011. In mid-October, the member units of the leading group for anti-poverty work assessment including the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee were divided into five groups to conduct field verification on the assessment work in 10 provinces and autonomous regions, including Inner Mongolia, etc. In December, in name of the State Council Leading Group for Poverty Alleviation and Development, we publicly praised six provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) winning Grade A in the assessment, namely Chongqing, Inner Mongolia, Guizhou, Hubei, Sichuan and Zhejiang, and 12 six provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) winning Grade B, namely Shanxi, Jilin, Guangxi, Shaanxi, Xinjiang, Yunnan, Jiangxi, Hainan, Heilongjiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong and Liaoning, and interviewed with relevant principals of the provinces with Grade C or below and put forward requirements for their future work.
According to the assessment results, various provinces attached great importance to poverty alleviation and development work, earnestly implemented their responsibility, actively mobilized local resources to participate in the anti-poverty work and increased local investment to promote the work. In 2011, there was a significant decline in the number of rural poverty reduction targets, the average growth rate of per capita net income of farmers in contiguous poor areas and the key counties was higher than the provincial average, and impoverished regions witnessed rapid economic and social development. The situation of infrastructure construction and equalization of public services, however, still cannot meet the needs of impoverished areas and more investment and support should be provided.

【Industrial Poverty Alleviation】
1．Formulated and issued the "Guiding Opinions on the Preparation of Industrial Poverty Alleviation Planning for Contiguous Poor Areas with Special Difficulties"
To effectively promote the industrial poverty alleviation and accelerate the implementation of the regional development and poverty alleviation planning for contiguous poor areas with special difficulties, on December 12, 2012, LGOP, the Ministry of Agriculture, State Forestry Administration and China National Tourism Administration jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on the Preparation of Industrial Poverty Alleviation Planning for Contiguous Poor Areas with Special Difficulties" (hereinafter referred to as the "Opinions"), which is divided into seven parts, mainly including:
（1）Purpose and significance
Contiguous poor areas with special difficulties are a key problem in building a moderately prosperous society. The preparation of a planning for industrial poverty alleviation in contiguous poor areas is conducive to the implementation of the plan for regional development and poverty reduction in contiguous poor areas; and helps handle the relationship between industrial development and the benefits of poverty reduction objects and lift the objects of poverty reduction out of poverty; helps guide the investment of financial anti-poverty funds with industrial poverty alleviation as a platform; helps coordinate special poverty alleviation, industrial poverty alleviation and social anti-poverty forces to jointly promote the industrial poverty alleviation work; and helps explore the development of differentiated supportive policies for the objects of poverty reduction as well.
After the implementation of the industrial poverty alleviation program, the poor got involved in industrial development and achieved income growth through the "one project for one family". As a result, their operating income and asset income were significantly increased with income growth rate above local average, laying a solid foundation for the substantial reduction in the number and the income doubling of the objects of poverty reduction.
（2）Basis, coverage and duration
Basis: In accordance with the general requirements of the “Outline”, the regional development and poverty reduction planning for contiguous poor areas and the provincial implementation plan must be converged with the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" of industrial sector and the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" for local economic and social development.
Coverage: The coverage of the industrial poverty alleviation program for contiguous poor areas is the same as that of the overall planning. The preparation of industrial poverty alleviation planning for the key counties outside contiguous poor areas can refer to the "Guiding Opinions", which is under the responsibility of the provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities).
Duration. The duration of the industrial poverty alleviation planning for contiguous poor areas is the same as that of the regional development and poverty reduction program.
（3）Basic principles
① Government-led, market operation;
② Adjusting measures to local conditions, classified guidance;
③ Highlighting key points, improving mechanisms;
④ Guidance of science and technology, capacity building;
⑤ Ecological construction and sustainable development;
⑥ Risk prevention for steady progress
（4）Industry selection and regional distribution
Focusing on planting, breeding, processing, traditional industries with ethnic characteristics and rural tourism which are highly related to poverty reduction and widely participated by the poor, making them effectively converged with the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" developed by the agricultural, forestry and tourism industry, we should select the species of planting, breeding and processing or the categories or rural tourism in accordance with the distribution and resources situation of poor villages.
To maximize the number of poor villages covered by the program, implement the industrial poverty alleviation projects mainly in the areas concentrated with impoverished villages and people, develop planning for contiguous poor areas with villages as the basis and make progress step by step to gradually cultivate specialized competitive industries with regional characteristics for poverty reduction.
（5）Construction content
Focusing on the industrial development widely participated by the objects of poverty reduction, adjust measures to local conditions and design the construction content of the planning.
① Industry base construction;
② Facilities construction;
③ Development of economic cooperation organizations;
④ Capacity building of poverty reduction objects;
⑤ Technology support system building.
（6）Funding sources and the measurement of investment scale
Financial funds: Including financial anti-poverty funds, sector funds and matching funds of local governments. The central, provincial and county financial anti-poverty funds should meet the requirements of "two 70%" in principle: More than 70% of the financial anti-poverty funds for each county in the contiguous poor areas should be put in industrial development, of which about 70% should be used to directly support the objects of poverty reduction to participate in industrial development.
Credit funds: Including discount loans for poverty alleviation and commercial bank loans, mainly used to support poverty alleviation leading enterprises, base construction, the construction of cooperative economic organizations, etc.
Self-raised funds and labor contribution of the masses: Includes bank loans and other funding sources of the masses, mainly for base construction-related small facilities.
Others: Various inputs for social poverty alleviation
Financial funds increases by 15% per year, credit funds should be five times the sources of financial funds, while the self-raised funds by the masses and social poverty relief funds should be determined based on actual situation.
（7）Job requirements and organizational leadership (omitted)

【Pilot project of poverty alleviation in contiguous poor areas with special difficulties】
1. Pilot project of poverty alleviation in border areas of Xinjiang. In 2012, in accordance with the requirements and plan of the "Guidance on the Expansion of Pilot Areas for Poverty Alleviation in Border Areas of Xinjiang", focusing on the pilot work in the frontline, taking entire village advancement as the platform, we further implemented the "Planning on the Expansion of Pilot Areas for Poverty Alleviation in Border Areas of Xinjiang (2011-2015)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Planning") and the overall operation situation was good.
（1）Capital project operation and overall progress in the implementation of the "Planning"
In September 2010, LGOP and the People’s Government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region held the work conference on poverty alleviation and development in Xinjiang and decided to expand the pilot area of poverty reduction in border regions to 17 key counties (cities) in the frontline. 2012 is the second year for the implementation of the “Planning” for poverty alleviation in border areas. During the three years from 2010 to 2012, the state and the autonomous regions allocated 19.1 billion yuan of poverty relief funds for the 17 key counties (cities), of which 1.46 billion yuan was financial anti-poverty funds, including 510 million yuan of special funds for pilot poverty reduction in border areas, covering 298 poverty relief projects; 12.6 billion yuan was industrial poverty alleviation funds; 4.51 billion yuan was poverty relief funds for Xinjiang and 530 million Yuan was social poverty alleviation funds.
In 2012, the state and the autonomous regions allocated 170 million yuan of poverty relief funds for 136 pilot projects in border areas, including 63 livestock breeding projects, 21 agricultural projects, 4 water conservancy projects, 2 household handwork projects, one traffic project and 45 residential building and other projects. The projects were launched in 125 border impoverished villages. In 2012, entire village advancement projects were implemented in 55 border impoverished villages and consolidated in 70 border impoverished villages. As of the end of November, 170 million yuan of funds had been issued for the pilot project, 100% allocated; and the reimbursed funds was actually 169.52 million yuan, with a reimbursement rate of 99.7%. 136 projects were launched and136 projects were completed, each accounting for 100% of the total; and 130 projects passed the examination and were accepted, accounting for 96% of the total. The project directly benefited 19,500 poverty-stricken households and 82,000 poor people in border areas and indirectly benefited 31,000 poor households and 131,000 poor people.
As for the leverage of the pilot funds for poverty reduction in border areas in 2012, 170 million yuan of funds was issued for the pilot poverty reduction in border areas that year, which encouraged the investment of 7.55 billion yuan of other funds, of which 610 million yuan was special poverty relief funds, 4.71 billion yuan was industrial poverty alleviation funds, 130 million yuan was social poverty alleviation funds and 2.1 billion yuan was Xinjiang-supporting poverty relief funds.

【Disaster response in poor areas】
1．Review of the compilation of the “Records of Wenchuan Earthquake Relief of LGOP”
According to the requirements of timely preparation of the "Records of Wenchuan Earthquake Relief of LGOP" (hereinafter referred to as the "Records") after the compilation of the "Records of Wenchuan Earthquake Relief · Records of Post-disaster Reconstruction" put forward by the executive meeting of LGOP held on July 27, 2011, on September 28, 2011, the compilation of the "Records" was officially launched. After one year of efforts, the compilation studio successfully completed the compilation of the "Records". As the first Records independently compiled by LGOP, the "Records" fully presents the outstanding contributions made by poverty alleviation departments in Wenchuan earthquake relief.
（1）Compilation process of the Records
The compilation of the Records is divided into five stages:
1st Stage: Data collection and collation. After the first plenary session of the Records Compilation Studio on September 28, 2011, the compilation studio began to collect relevant data on Wenchuan Earthquake relief and the post-disaster reconstruction. As the Records increased the chapter of "Advanced Models", after the meeting, the compilation studio immediately issued the "Circular Concerning the Information on Advanced Models Needed by the Compilation of the 'Records of Wenchuan Earthquake Relief of LGOP'" (Guo Kai Ban Si Han No. [2011]125) to the poverty alleviation offices (bureaus) of Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi, requiring relevant materials from the three provinces. As of the end of November 2011, the data collection work had been basically completed.
2nd Stage: Drafting and revising. From December 2011 to the end of May 2012, in accordance with the division of labor for Records compilation, while doing their own work, all the compilers sacrificed holidays and spare time to concentrate on writing the first draft. At the end of February 2012, they initially completed the first draft of 350,000 words. After that, the compilation studio successively organized all the compilers to review and revise the records chapter by chapter, section by section and word for word, and check leaks for proofreading. After the revisal, at the end of May, the Records content has been reduced from 350,000 words to more than 200,000 words (4 parts, 10 chapters, 27 sessions).
3rd Stage: Draft polishing. From June to September 2012, the compilation studio submitted the revised draft to relevant leaders, experts and the records compilation advisors for polishing, and the director of the compilation studio finally summarized the opinions for revisal and formed the draft for comments.
4th Stage: Asking for comments. From October to December 2012, the draft for comments was submitted to relevant departments, party committees and affiliated institutions of LGOP as well as four mass organizations under the supervision of LGOP for comments and suggestions. The relevant units put forward 44 amendments in three categories. After careful screening and verification, under the principle of accepting suggestions as many as possible, the compilation studio adopted 36 amendments and formed the records manuscript.
5th Stage: Printing for publication. At the end of 2012, the compilation studio submitted the "Records of Wenchuan Earthquake Relief of LGOP (draft for approval)" approved by the executive meeting of LGOP to Chinese Workers Press and is expected to be published in the first half of 2013.
（2）Range, structure and content of the "Records". The areas covered by the "Records of Wenchuan Earthquake Relief of LGOP" are mainly the hardest and heavily hit areas (51 counties in total) identified by the "Circular Concerning the Announcement of Assessment Results of Disaster Areas of Wenchuan Earthquake Issued by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Land and Resources and China Earthquake Administration" (Min Fa No. [2008]105). The scope of the two chapters –"Earthquake Relief" and "Advanced Models" is not restricted as above.
The Records is divided into inscription, preface, legend, overview, events, four special records, appendix, afterword and photos. The chapter of Events mainly records major events of LGOP in organizing and leading the earthquake relief and post-disaster reconstruction. The four special records are divided into 10 chapters and 27 sessions, respectively objectively describing the disaster situations of impoverished areas, earthquake relief and post-disaster reconstruction of poor villages as well as the advanced models of poverty alleviation departments in the earthquake relief and post-disaster reconstruction. Appendix I is a collection of the important speeches by LGOP leaders in guiding the earthquake relief and post-disaster reconstruction work of poverty alleviation departments; Appendix II is a collection of main policy documents issued by LGOP in the process of earthquake relief and post-disaster reconstruction; the photos vividly and intuitively reflect how LGOP leaders guided the earthquake relief and post-disaster reconstruction of poor villages.
2．Completed the analysis report on disasters in impoverished areas in 2012. Carried out 2011-2012 field survey on the disaster situations of impoverished areas nationwide and, through vertical and horizontal disaster information collection and analysis, formulated the "Analysis report on disasters in impoverished areas in 2012", which provided an important reference for the allocation of central financial anti-poverty funds kept in reserve and a basis for effective disaster response in future.
3．Conducted mid-term assessment of the post-disaster restoration and reconstruction in Yushu of Qinghai and Zhouqu of Gansu. From late September to late October, the relevant experts were organized to conduct research and mid-term assessment on the post-disaster restoration and reconstruction in Yushu of Qinghai and Zhouqu of Gansu, and completed the mid-term evaluation report.

【Anti-poverty funds and the management of anti-poverty funds】
In 2012, the central and provincial governments further increased the investment of financial anti-poverty funds, taking the contiguous poor areas as the main battlefield for poverty reduction, highlighted the development of competitive featured industries, made innovations to the supportive mechanism for anti-poverty funds to be delivered to specific households and standardized the use and management of poverty relief funds to improve the efficiency.
Stable growth of financial anti-poverty funds: In 2012, the central and provincial anti-poverty funds amounted to 49.66 billion yuan, 12.36 billion Yuan more than that of the previous year, up 33.1%; of which: 33.2 billion yuan was from the central government, with an increase of 6 billion yuan more, up 22.1%; 16.45 billion yuan was from provincial government, with an increase of 6.36 billion yuan, up 62.4%. In addition, the government actively expanded sources of anti-poverty funds and strived for central special lottery funds of 900 million yuan.
Concentrated investment to highlight key areas: In accordance with the requirements of the New “Outline”, the government made overall arrangements for the use of various anti-poverty funds according to the planning for poverty alleviation and development, giving priority to key areas, key work and key objects of poverty reduction.
1．As for the investment areas, the anti-poverty funds were mainly issued to national contiguous poor areas with special difficulties, key counties and poor villages, and the central financial anti-poverty funds were mainly used for contiguous poor areas. According to the submitted data of various provinces, in 2012, 33.2 billion yuan of financial anti-poverty funds was issued to contiguous poor areas and key counties by the central and provincial governments, accounting for 68.4% of the total; 26.8 million yuan of the central financial anti-poverty funds was invested in the contiguous poor counties and key counties, accounting for 82% of the total; and the increased funds used for contiguous poor areas accounted for 81.7% of the total increased amount (based on 2010 figures).
2．As for the investment direction, the financial anti-poverty funds were mainly used to develop competitive featured industries and improve the basic production and living conditions of the poor. In accordance with the requirements of the New “Outline”, local governments increased efforts on the development of competitive featured industries and further adjusted the investment structure. In 2012, 21.23 billion yuan of funds from central and provincial government was directly used to promote the development of industry, accounting for 50% of the total investment; 16.34 billion yuan was used for infrastructure construction, including farmland, water conservancy, village roads, drinking water and biogas projects, dangerous house renovation projects, etc., accounting for 38.3% of the total. 15.97 billion yuan and 11.97 billion yuan of central financial anti-poverty funds were respectively put in for the above two fields, accounting for 51% and 38.3% of the total investment of the central government respectively.
3. As for the key work supported by the funds, we continued to conduct entire village advancement of impoverished villages, capacity building, industrialization poverty reduction and immigration-based poverty alleviation, and implemented various pilot projects of poverty reduction. The anti-poverty funds were mainly used to develop competitive featured industries, enhance the self-development capacity of the poor and promote the key anti-poverty work. In 2012, 26.71 billion yuan was used in entire village advancement, Rain Plan and relocation-based poverty reduction, accounting for 64.4% of the total; and 9.65 billion yuan was used for pilot work of technology poverty reduction, mutual funds, contiguous development, border poverty alleviation and post-disaster reconstruction and restoration, accounting for 20.7% of the total.
4．Increased efforts on providing anti-poverty funds for specific households and made innovations to the support mechanism. To meet the requirements of the “Outline”, local governments made innovations to the mechanism for anti-poverty funds to be delivered to impoverished households, gradually increased direct support for specific households in various forms, made full use of the results of the effective convergence of pro-poor policies and the rural minimum living security system, established and improved the poverty reduction object identification mechanism and implemented the household poverty reduction measures to ensure the objects of poverty reduction obtain effective, direct support.
Innovate mechanisms to improve capital efficiency. To maximize the effect of financial anti-poverty funds, the government made positive exploration on the innovation of the mechanism for the use of anti-poverty funds.
1．Implemented pilot projects of mutual funds for poor villages and established the long-term mechanism for the use of financial anti-poverty funds. According to incomplete statistics, as of the end of 2012, the pilot projects of mutual funds had been implemented in 17900 poor villages of 1286 counties in 28 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) across the country. A total of 4.498 billion yuan of mutual funds was issued, of which 934 billion yuan was anti-poverty fund from the central government, 2.389 billion yuan was provincial anti-poverty funds and 955 million yuan was farmers’ mutual funds and other funds. A total of 1.6668 million rural households participated in the mutual funds, accounting for 27.8% of the total rural households in the pilot villages, of which 909,900 were poor households, accounting for 54.6% of the total poor; a total of 7.63 billion yuan of loans was issued, of which 4.256 billion yuan was issued to the poor, accounting for 55.7% of the total; a total of 1.6 million people obtained loans, of which 915,000 were poor farmers, accounting for 57.3% of the total. In order to further standardize the operating procedures, LGOP and the Ministry of Finance jointly issued the "Circular on the Implementation of Pilot Projects of Mutual Funds for Poor Villages in 2012" and completed the "Study of Poverty Reduction Effect of Mutual Funds of Poor Villages" and the "Performance Evaluation and Study of the Operating Rules of the Pilot Projects of Mutual Funds". On the whole, the pilot work has entered the stage of consolidation and improvement from the stage of coverage expansion with fixed points, the operation of mutual funds is becoming increasingly standardized, the management is more orderly, the risk awareness has been enhanced and the income of farmers has increased significantly. The mutual funds played a positive role in facilitating the loan obtaining of the impoverished regions, especially poor farmers.
2．Implemented entire village advancement and contiguous development based on local conditions and built the resource integration platform. Entire village advancement is an important way and carrier for new rural construction in poor areas. In accordance with the requirements of state for entire village advancement during the “12th Five-Year Plan” period, local governments increased efforts on resource integration through entire village advancement. According to incomplete statistics, in 2012, the ratio between integrated funds and financial anti-poverty funds was 2:1 and averagely 3.34 million yuan was invested for each village. From 2010 to 2012, contiguous development was implemented based on entire village advancement and 10-12 million yuan of financial anti-poverty funds was put in for each pilot county. Through integration of funds and policy and mechanism innovation, it attracted the agriculture-related funds of relevant departments to be invested in industrial development and supporting projects, which promoted the economic development of poverty-stricken areas and the stable income growth of poor rural households. The scale advantages of contiguous development established a platform for resource integration. In some places, the ratio of fund integration reached 1:5-1:8, which enhanced the level of investment in poverty alleviation.
3．Financial discount encouraged the issuance of anti-poverty loans and enhanced the multiplier effect of anti-poverty funds. 2012 is the fifth year for comprehensive reform of the management system for anti-poverty subsidized loans. Since the reform, the scale of anti-poverty discount loans has been significantly expanded, the proportion of the households receiving anti-poverty funds has been significantly enhanced and significant progress has been made in promoting the diversification of financial institutions and mobilizing the initiatives of local governments. In 2012, the central and local governments issued a total of discount funds of 1.7 billion yuan, guided the issuance of 53.8 billion yuan of loans, 3.3 times that of 2008, the initial stage of the reform. The household loans and project loans were respectively 24.16 billion yuan and 29.64 billion yuan.
Strengthen supervision on the management of anti-poverty funds. Through various measures, it strived to establish a funding project follow-up and monitoring system featured prevention in advance, standardization in process and review after project implementation. Through combining sector supervision with the supervision by the masses and public opinion, it ensured the effective, safe and clean operation of anti-poverty fund projects.
1．Strengthened system building. In accordance with the requirements of the "Measures for the Management of Financial Anti-poverty Funds” (Cai Nong [2011] No. 412), local governments developed specific measures to strengthen the management of anti-poverty funds. They strengthened the construction of a clean government, conscientiously carried out clean governance risk prevention and control work, improved the control flow and improved the mechanisms for clean governance risk control of the financial anti-poverty funds.

Respect the order of nature and the laws of the market, do a good job of research, seek truth from facts, and develop and improve poverty reduction program based on actual situations. Local governments are required to arrange the project funds in strict accordance with the regional development and poverty alleviation planning of 14 contiguous poor areas including Liupanshan Area and the "12th Five-Year Plan" for poverty reduction by entire village advancement to avoid and prevent irregularities and reduce waste.
3. Open operation to expand supervision. Further implement poverty alleviation fund announcement and publicity system. All poverty-relief projects of various provinces must be announced in local daily newspaper and other major media to strengthen publicity and expand the content and scope of the announcement, ensuring open, fair, equitable and standardized use of relevant funds and project arrangements as well as the open operation of anti-poverty funds.
4．Strengthened performance evaluation. LGOP and the Ministry of Finance continued to conduct performance evaluation on the use and management of 2011 anti-poverty funds of various provinces, and strengthened the feedback and use of performance evaluation results. Through the evaluation, local governments further increased capital investment, regulated the use of anti-poverty funds, strengthened the fund management system building and implementation, accelerated the allocation of anti-poverty funds and the implementation of relevant projects, and made positive progress in increasing direct support for specific households, accelerating the contiguous development of featured industries and guiding resources integration of contiguous areas. In accordance with the change in the poverty alleviation and development situation, we revised and improved the fund performance evaluation indicators and measures.
5．Strengthened supervision and inspection. Based on public participation, it combined audit and supervision closely with social supervision and mass supervision and gave full play to the role of financial, audit, discipline inspection and supervision sectors. From November 2011 to April 2012, the National Audit Office of the People's Republic of China carried out audit and investigation on the allocation, use and management of the central financial anti-poverty funds for local areas. Combined with the feedback of the National Audit Office of the People's Republic of China, we put forward our opinions on the further improvement and strengthening of the allocation, use and supervision of financial anti-poverty funds. The audit played a positive role in accelerating the poverty-relief fund system building and strengthening the consciousness of supervision.
Generally speaking, the poverty-relief funds management system has been continuously improved, the use of anti-poverty funds has been further standardized and the regulatory measures have been constantly intensified. According to the main and spot checks on the use of anti-poverty funds conducted by the National Audit Office, State Council Office for Rectifying and the Supervision Office of the Ministry of Finance, the management of the anti-poverty funds is relatively good on the whole and has played an important role in improving the production and living conditions of impoverished regions, increasing the income of the poor and enhancing the development capacity.
