A 105-year-old woman of the Dulong ethnic minority group in Dulongjiang town in Southwest China's Yunnan province has just realized her dream of traveling outside her village and driving a car, thanks to a local anti-poverty campaign. [Photo provided to chinadaily.com.cn]


According to Xinhua News Agency, China's Dulong ethnic group was lifted out of poverty as a whole last year, thanks to the ongoing anti-poverty campaign.


In 2014 villagers in the Mudang village were provided with newly built houses. But Pu Ertai didn't move into her new house because she was too old to move and the new house was not easy to reach for her.


A government working team helping villagers solve difficulties learnt of her case and helped Pu go down the mountain, take a car and move into her new house on Oct 18.
