Wang Guangguo, Party secretary of Dianziping village, Jianshi county, Enshi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture, Hubei province
Dianziping is isolated by mountains and rivers, and only a dangerous pathway, which claimed seven lives in the past decades, connected the little village to the outside world. If you want prosperity, first build a road. When elected as Party secretary, I talked everyone into building roads, from a footpath to a gravel road and from a cement road to the current asphalt road. The convenient transportation and beautiful scenery increased the popularity of the village and spurred a boom in other businesses including rural homestays and local specialty sales.
