Lajiao Township, located in the southern foothills of the Himalayas and the lower part of the Luozha Ditch in the south of the mountain, has an average altitude of 3675 meters and an average annual sunshine time of less than 3 months. The land in the ditch is barren and produces almost no food.
Under the guidance of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important exposition on governing the border and stabilizing Tibet, driven by the party's policy of benefiting the people, especially the construction of well-off villages on the border, lajiao, this former poor and backward "synonym" has achieved a beautiful "butterfly change": every household has lived in a "well-off house", the new highway is about to be opened, and the flexible herdsmen have set up a family hotel and eaten "tourist meals"...
"Last year, the per capita income of Lajiao Township reached 20,497 yuan, ranking first in Juluozha County." Gu Sang Danzeng, secretary of the party committee of Lajiao Township, told reporters proudly.
Live in a "well-off room"
"Marry someone and don't marry a suburban person", this is a "colloquialism" circulating among the people of Loza County, but it reflects the poverty and helplessness of the former suburbs.
"Well-off is not well-off, the key is to look at fellow countrymen." A few days ago, when the reporter came to Lajiao Village in Lajiao Township, what he saw was a different scene -- every household lived in a series of "villas", and under the bright sunshine, the bright red roof and the five-star red flag flying high shone together and shone brightly.
"All 59 households in the village have lived in 'well-off houses.'" Tashi Sangzhu, director of the village committee of Lajiao Village, told reporters, "Each person enjoys 40 square meters, the state bears 70%, the masses raise 30% of themselves, the government makes a big head, the individual takes the small head, and the masses feel the concern of the party and the government from the bottom of their hearts." ”

The 10 families in Jerob Village (Majiatang), a border village 47 kilometers away from the township government, did not have to pay a penny to live in a 110-square-meter "well-off house". "Due to the inconvenience of transportation, the cost of building a house in Jerob Village is very high, and the cost of a bag of cement is nearly 450 yuan." Gu Sang Danzeng said, "In order to let the masses graze and guard the border with peace of mind, the party and the government have done their best to solve practical difficulties for the masses. ”
Solang Qunpei, an 81-year-old villager in Jerob Village, told reporters: "When I moved to Majiatang in 1995, I lived in a tent. Later, Gu Sang Danzeng led people to help us build slate houses, and now he has helped us build 'well-off houses' and built warm circles, so that we no longer have to worry about livestock in the winter. ”

The meticulous care and concern of the party and the government has further strengthened the determination and confidence of the masses in the suburban townships to graze and guard the border. They spontaneously sprayed party flags and flag motifs on the cliffs to express their gratitude and love for the party and the government. "The state has helped me get rich, and I have guarded the border for the motherland." Gu Sangdan said movingly, "The villagers over the age of 16 in Jerob Village each enjoy a state policy subsidy of more than 20,000 yuan per year, plus the income from digging cordyceps and digging yellow lotus, and the annual cash income reaches more than 30,000 yuan, which is at the forefront of getting rich." ”
Now, the development of "mountain people" makes "mountain outsiders" also envious. "Many people say that if only they had moved to lajiao township." Gusang Danzeng said, "This all depends on the party's policy of enriching the people and the hard struggle of the villagers." A good day is a struggle. It is through arduous struggle and dedication to the frontier that the masses in the countryside have lived today's good life. ”
Eat a "tourist meal"
After the improvement of houses and infrastructure, the people of Lajiao Township ushered in the "golden period" of development, and two flexible herders in Lajiao Village took the lead in setting up a family hotel.
SangDan Yuzhen, 28, after living in a "well-off room" in 2017, transformed the extra room in the family into a guest room. "My family hotel has 9 beds, and it increases income by at least 2,000 yuan per year." Sandan Yuzhen told reporters, "I heard that the township will lead us to develop tourism, and the future income will be higher." ”
Although Lajiao Township is located deep in the mountains, it has unique tourism resources. The white jade area where Jerob Village is located is known as "Xanadu" and "White Jade Secret". In addition, Lajiao Township is also a famous "handicraft town", and the local people weave baskets, back baskets and handicrafts such as wooden bowls, wooden cups, and rice boxes, which are highly known in the market.

"Every year after May, there are colorful azaleas everywhere, which is very beautiful." Gu SangDanzeng said, "In order to accelerate the development of border areas, the relevant departments at higher levels have decided to invest more than 10 million yuan to develop tourism here, build tourist reception centers and infrastructure such as boardwalks and observation decks." According to the plan, the road to Jerob Village will be fully connected this year. ”
When the good news came, the crowd rejoiced. In the past, the lack of roads seriously hindered local development and the masses' increased income and became rich. "In the past, when the masses transported supplies out, they all relied on people to carry cattle, and it took two days to go back and forth just by crossing the Gagula Mountain. Go over the hill for 11 hours and come back for 11 hours. After the road is opened, the masses can drive to sell their own handicrafts to Shannan and Lhasa. Now the families in Lajiao Village, who understand both craftsmanship and diligence, increase their income by 70,000 or 80,000 yuan a year. Ordinary people say that this is called 'a car ringing gold ten thousand and two'. Tashi Sangzhu told reporters that through the "rescue inheritance" in 2011, 70% of the families in Lajiao Village have mastered the skills of bamboo and wood making.
The news of the development of tourism has also boiled the village of Jerob. Mima Samdrup said: "The masses are eager to eat 'tourist meals' and live a better life. Now, with the support and leadership of the government, many people in the village have begun to take action. ”
Embark on the "road to moderate prosperity"
The change of the road is a microcosm of the development of Lajiao Township - in 2004, Lajiao Township built a gravel road; in 2016, Lajiao Township Cement Road was officially opened to traffic.
After the improvement of the road out of the countryside, the people in the suburbs gradually embarked on the "well-off road". In 2010, Kelsang Dobje, a villager in Lajiao Village, led five families to set up a transport team. He told reporters: "The transport team has 7 large trucks and 7 minivans, which has increased the income of 14 households. The annual income of large trucks increased by about 140,000 yuan, and the annual income of small trucks increased by about 100,000 yuan. ”
In 2016, Lajiao Township invited two technicians from Mianyang, Sichuan Province, to guide the villagers to plant black fungus and develop characteristic industries. Three villagers in Lajiao Village studied with the class, and the poor people of The original Lika, Gayang Ram, were one of them. After mastering the technology, she became the science and technology commissioner of lajiao village.
"As a science and technology commissioner, I can receive five or six thousand yuan in subsidies every year, and with these incomes, my family achieved poverty alleviation in 2017." Gayeram said.
With the support of party committees and governments at all levels, at present, 5 greenhouses have been built in Lajiao Village, which has increased the income of 85 people from 30 households. Tashi Sangzhu happily told reporters: "This year, we have cultivated 20,000 mushroom bags, and if the market sells well, it has embarked on another 'road to riches'." ”
While grasping the development of the economy, the suburban townships have solidly carried out the "four stresses and four loves" mass education and practice activities, so that the masses can be both "rich in pockets" and "rich in heads." Gu SangDanzeng said: "At present, everyone in the suburban townships listens to the party and follows the party, and every household wants to be rich, will develop, and can get rich, and has achieved a 'double harvest' in the construction of material civilization and the construction of spiritual civilization. ”

Lajiao Township, a microcosm of the construction of a well-off village on the border of our district.
Since 2017, the autonomous region has thoroughly implemented General Secretary Xi Jinping's important exposition that "to govern the country must rule the border, and to govern the border first to stabilize Tibet", always keeping in mind that the general secretary gave Zhuoga and Yangzong sisters in Yumai Township that "only when there is a country can have a home, without the tranquility of the border, there will be no peace of ten thousand families." Every grass and tree on the territory of the motherland, we must all be optimistic about the important spirit of replying to the letter, vigorously implement the rural revitalization strategy with the theme of "guardian of the sacred land and builder of a happy homeland", and implement the construction of border well-off villages in 21 border counties and 628 border villages, involving 62,160 households and 241835 people. At present, Shannan City alone has built 30 border villages. Driven by the construction of well-off border villages, the vast number of border masses have taken root in the snowy frontier like Kelsang flowers, guarding the sacred land and building a happy homeland.
