Poverty leaves village almost empty

A village cadre points to a house left in ruins as he talks about the family who left the village in Huize county, Southwest China's Yunnan province, Aug 18, 2011. Zhongyao village, once home to 33 families, has only one narrow road to the outside, and residents are seldom seen now because villagers are leaving in search of a place to escape the deep-rooted poverty in their hometown.
