🚆 Last Friday, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Meizhou in Guangdong Province on the Chinese mainland.
His tour blended history and agritech: first, he explored Ye Jianying Memorial Park, learning how revolutionary culture is kept alive 📜. Next, he stopped by a pomelo farm 🍊, where growers are mixing tradition with tech to energize rural revival.
Meizhou is a key old revolutionary base area. Supporting these regions aims to:
- Preserve cultural landmarks and stories 🏛️
- Boost local agriculture with modern tech and farmer support 🤖🚜
- Drive all-around rural revitalization for sustainable growth 🌱
For young pros in South and Southeast Asia, this hits home. Think India’s agritech startups or Vietnam’s community tourism—blending heritage, innovation and eco-conscious living. Meizhou’s pomelo farms are piloting drip irrigation and digital monitoring to ensure premium, eco-friendly harvests.
Looking ahead, local authorities plan more grants, training programs and smart-agri solutions. If successful, Meizhou could inspire rural revamps across Asia—from Kerala’s spice villages to Indonesia’s rice terraces.
Stay tuned for the next chapter in China’s rural story and fresh ideas for sustainable innovation across the region 🌏✨.
