A profound "industrial revolution" is currently underway in Guizhou, as the mountainous province in southwest China has been committed to comprehensively revitalizing its rural areas.

On March 5, deputies to the 13th National People's Congress (NPC) and members of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) from Guizhou shared their opinions on rural development in Beijing during the annual two sessions.

Yuan Changxuan, NPC deputy, office manager of the Forestry Bureau of Tianzhu county:

To achieve rural revitalization, we first need to adjust the industrial structures in rural areas and help locals change their traditional concepts.
