People of Miao ethnic group who didn't have household registration certificates have been immigrated to the new village since 1983. The government helped 110 people to get household registration certificates which guaranteed their rights in healthcare, education and pension in recent years. The Luoxiaocun Village of Miao ethnic group also improved its infrastructure and alleviated poverty by breeding chicken, goat and bee. (Xinhua/Yang Zongyou)
