The new "dual circulation" development pattern, which looks at the domestic market as the country's economic mainstay, with domestic and foreign markets complementing each other, was stressed in the communique of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which was released on Oct 29.

The development pattern will help China build a complete domestic supply and demand system, while meeting people's growing needs for a better life.

The session emphasized that people of all ethnic groups in the country should work together to win the fight against poverty on schedule, build a well-off society on schedule, and achieve the first of the Two Centenary Goals, laying a solid foundation for a new journey toward building a modern socialist country by 2049.

Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region has always been one of the main focuses in the fight against poverty.
