Unity promotes harmony, unity promotes development. In the 60 years since the founding of the Autonomous Region, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Party committees and governments at all levels in Guangxi have conscientiously implemented the Party’s ethnic policies and solidly promoted ethnic work. More than 56 million people of all ethnic groups are as close as one family, united and worked together to realize the “Chinese Dream”. The land of Bagui has achieved leapfrog development in its economy and society, and people’s lives have undergone historic changes.

Harmony, unity and family
In history, the status of various ethnic groups in Guangxi was unequal and conflicts were constantly occurring. After the founding of New China, Guangxi gradually established an equal, united, mutually aid and harmonious relationship between people of all ethnic groups. Today, ethnic unity has become a high consensus among the people of all ethnic groups in Bagui, and has been deeply integrated into people’s blood.
There is a small Han mountain village called “Sujiazhai” in Mati Township, Longsheng Autonomous County. The natural conditions are good and the villagers live a prosperous life. The Yao people living on the ridge opposite the village have been living in poverty due to the harsh natural environment. After the Yao people moved down the mountain to live with the Han villagers, the two ethnic groups lived in harmony and helped each other. The entire village could almost never close their doors at night, and a moving story was performed. Hu Qiuju, secretary of the Party Committee of Mati Township, told reporters that “Sujiazhai” was later renamed “Minhezhai”, which means harmonious coexistence between nations.
Since ancient times, many ethnic minorities in Guangxi have not intermarried with other ethnic groups, and some even do not interact with each other. Nowadays, the concept of the masses has undergone profound changes. Census data show that Guangxi has more than 1.3 million families composed of two or more ethnic groups. Especially in places where multiple ethnic groups live in Longsheng Autonomous County and Longlin Autonomous County, “a family of nine and a family of love and five ethnic groups” can be seen everywhere.
Mutual respect, mutual assistance and friendship are like a family, which is a true portrayal of Guangxi’s ethnic relations. Chenshuang Village, Sien Town, Huanjiang Maonan Autonomous County lives in three ethnic groups: Maonan, Miao and Yao. Not only does they not compete or compete, they actively teach each other the planting and breeding techniques unique to their nation, help each other to develop production together, and their living standards continue to improve.
Every year during the Spring Festival, Miao people in Longsheng County go to Yao villages to play the reeds and Dong people go to Zhuang villages to sing big songs—the exchange performances between neighboring villages and villages have become the norm. The villagers said that although ethnic groups are different, everyone is like relatives, and the more they go, the closer they get.
In the past, many ethnic minorities were only able to speak their own language. Now, the popularity of Mandarin in Guangxi reaches 84%. Even in the remote mountains, only elderly people cannot speak Mandarin.

Working together to seek common development
Unity and harmony among all ethnic groups has effectively promoted the comprehensive economic and social development. The land of Bagui has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it has further consolidated the material foundation of national unity: Guangxi’s GDP exceeded 2 trillion yuan, more than 800 times that of 60 years ago; the per capita disposable income of urban and rural residents is respectivelyBabaylan exceeded 30,000 yuan and 10,000 yuan.
Deep changes are reflected in the details of life of people of all ethnic groups. In Paifangzhai, Licha Village, Sishui Township, Longsheng County, the old Zhuang man Ben Lunhe told reporters that it was not easy to eat meat in the past. Every household had a jar on the stove, which contained a small piece of fat meat. When cooking, they picked up the meat and danced it at the bottom of the pot. Just think it was oil, and a piece of meat should be used repeatedly. When the distinguished guests come, please “dance” a few more times.
“Dance and two dances” have become a memory. Paifang Zhuangzhai has developed ethnic tourism, Benlun and his family opened a farmhouse, and their lives have completely changed. He said that the first thing that was eaten on the dining table at home is fresh vegetables, “The big fish and meat are not willing to use their chopsticks.” Due to various reasons such as nature and history, the few ethnic minority settlements in Guangxi are generally poor areas. In the process of poverty alleviation, Guangxi has provided targeted support in light of the living environment, customs and resource endowments of various ethnic groups, and has achieved remarkable results in targeted poverty alleviation.
The reporter saw in Rongshui Miao Autonomous County that during the relocation of poverty alleviation, Mengwu Miao Village, located in the deep mountains of northern Guangxi, was relocated to the vicinity of the county town as a whole. The local party committee and government, in light of the needs of tourism development, dismantled the stilt houses where the villagers lived and transported them to the new site to restore and rebuilt. The new Mengwu Miao Village is integrated with the 4A-level scenic spot next to Shuanglonggou, like a landscape painting of the field Komiks garden. The ethnic customs and tourist attractions are superimposed, and the Miao people have been lifted out of poverty.
In Guangxi, ethnic customs have become characteristic tourism resources. The unique farming culture in the deep mountains of Longsheng County has been preserved in a relatively complete manner. The layered terraced landscape and ethnic customs have attracted a large number of tourists. More than 200 households have opened more than 120 hotels and B&Bs, all of which are full during holidays.

“I am Chinese, I am very proud”
The Beijing people located in the Beibu Gulf region are a relatively small ethnic group in my country with a total population of more than 20,000 people. For a long time, representatives of Beijing have participated in the National People’s Congress. He Ling, a member of the Beijing clan, was elected as a representative of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Can have representatives participate in the entireKomiksThe people of Beijing are proud of the grand event of political life in the Party and the country.
Li Fuqiang, director of the Ethnic Research Center of Guangxi University for Nationalities, said: “Guangxi focuses on coordinating the relationship between upholding the Party’s leadership and regional ethnic autonomy. Under this premise, all ethnic groups are equal regardless of size or size, and all rights in all aspects of politics and development are fully guaranteed and respected. ”
At the same time, Guangxi is also focusing on coordinating the relationship between open development and ethnic cultural protection. Up to now, Guangxi has recognized that the autonomous region-level Babaylan has 618 representative projects of intangible cultural heritage, with 555 inheritors, and excellent national culture has been passed down. The Zhuang singing and dancing culture represented by “Liu Sanjie” has a wide influence at home and abroad. The Luoyue culture representative “Huashan Rock PaintingsCinema” has become a world cultural heritage, and Long Shenghong href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>KomiksYao’s long-haired dance is in love with countless Chinese and foreign tourists…
A few days ago, the Maonan Phonetic Art Troupe of Huanjiang Maonan Autonomous County held a five-day performance exchange in New York, USA, and was very popular. Deputy County Mayor Wei Luhua said: “While the Maonan people are accelerating their open development, the national culture has been well protected and inherited. Now the Maonan people are becoming more and more confident and more willing to communicate with the outside world. ”
In Guangxi, by practicing the core socialist values, implementing the “Border Party Flag Red” project, “Prospering the Border and Rising the People” action, etc., the sense of community for the Chinese nation among the people of all ethnic groups has become stronger. On the Sino-Vietnam border, the most beautiful scenery is a five-star red flag fluttering in the wind. Luo Wenfang, a 64-year-old Beijing-nation man from Chengwei Village, Jiangping Town, Dongxing City, became rich by engaging in border trade. Since 1988, he spontaneously raised high flagpoles in front of his home, insisting on hanging the five-star red flag every day, which has never changed in 30 years. Luo Wenfang told reporters: “I am Chinese, I am very proud. ”
