China Made False Claims That It Has 'eliminated' Extreme Poverty: USCC Report

China has failed to combat 'extreme poverty' yet claimed victory in its 'war against poverty,' said the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission report.



Amid the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic, China has failed to combat 'extreme poverty', yet claimed victory in its war against it, said the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission report released on Wednesday. Calling out Beijing on its assertions about meeting the demands of the impoverished population in its territorial region, the report highlighted that China has made 'dubious' claims despite the issue being one of its central themes of a centennial propaganda campaign. In the same report published on Wednesday, the USCC also claimed that the country's financial structure is still reeling under the impact of the debt burden that has further escalated during the COVID period.

One of the central themes of the centennial propaganda campaign has been Beijing's assertion that it has eliminated extreme poverty by 2020, a goal first announced by General Secretary (of Communist Party of China, CPC, and President) Xi (Jinping) in 2015," USCC said. It was referring to the Poverty Alleviation: China's Experience and Contribution, a text released by China's State Council Information Office in April 2021, later published in Xinhua.

The 'Poverty Alleviation' paper claimed that "over the past century, CPC has united and led the Chinese people in the battle against poverty with unwavering faith and will." Referring to the same, the USCC report added that China has made unambiguous claims of success "in the battle against extreme poverty and eliminating overall extreme poverty for the first time in its history of thousands of years, and realising a century-long aspiration of the Chinese people."

Additionally, economic experts have also noticed serious income inequality and shortcomings in China's governmental methodologies that have been fuelled under expanding debt burden stressing China's financial sector following the 2008 global crisis, the USCC report stated.

It is worth the mention that USCC is a bipartisan commission created by Congress in 2000 to monitor trade, economic, and defence issues in US-China ties. The 551 pages report published by the committee on recent financial structure developments in China also shows that CPC used fiscal stimulus measures to address the economic slowdown caused by COVID in the past two years.

"By the end of the fourth quarter of 2019, China's total credit reached 262.9% of its GDP at USD 37.2 trillion (RMB 259 trillion), up from 178.8% at the end of 2010," read the data of the Bank for International Settlements. "China's debt growth accelerated between the end of 2019 and the end of 2020, rising to 289.5% of GDP," it added.



Nice going Chinese Communist slavers

The women picking cotton in the thumbnail are Han.

70% of cotton is picked by machines. When the US started accusing China of forced labour here, the main thing they did was lock in a bunch of orders for John Deere cotton picking machines out of fear they'd be added to the sanctions list.

It's all fake.

But I'm done with this thread. It's a waste of time. The main 'combatants' are two of the people who go into the Russia/Ukraine thread and gleefully celebrate warcimes. They don't care about human rights, they are Nazi sympathizers.

If anyone has legit questions about some piece of China propaganda, feel free to PM me.

If this is true, it is a lot more humanistic as compared to some frenchie bombing the hell out of Libya and Syria killing countless of children, the young the old , man and woman and causing a huge influx of migrants into Europe.
Some of these "migrants" mostly man increased crime, causing terrorist activities, gang raping local women and grooming children.

The Chinese is definitely doing a decent job re educating these Isis boys and teaching them how to be human beings.

Extremist in Europe doing terrorist activities... Extremist Bad lets crusade them.

Extremist in China doing terrorist activities..... Freedom Fighters they are heroes !!!!! lets support them.

Someone please tell this poor lady, that she lives inside a superpower which defeated poverty. So sad Chinese Communist party doesn't care about its people like every other authoritarian Communist regime prior.

Disgusting Communist animals

Is this a serious question?

This is a Palasan /Lvivz and Meanwhile / Saucisson6000 troll thread.

The cultural genocide of the Uyghurs is an incrimination of ethnocide brought by Uyghur exiles, international NGOs and several States against the government of the People's Republic of China, which has been pursuing a repressive policy since the beginning of the 2010s. against the Uyghurs, a Muslim and Turkic-speaking people of Xinjiang, an autonomous region in northwest China. The Chinese government uses the pretext of a “re-education process” in order to guarantee security in Xinjiang, after the riots of July 2009. Human Rights Watch as well as more and more media denounce systematic violations of human rights.

The federal government of the United States, the parliaments of the United Kingdom, France, Canada and several other countries pass resolutions declaring their recognition of the characterization of genocide.
