Gacuo Township

Naqu City, Tibet Autonomous Region, China

All the way to the West from aberco is the boundless grassland. Yellow sheep, the second-class national protection animal, can be seen everywhere. Tibetan antelope and wild donkey, the second-class national protection animal, are also common. Obviously, they're so well protected here that people can get close enough to see these guys. Bison, known as the soft gold of the plateau, are also here, but they are not easy to see because they live in the hinterland of the xiyar snow mountain.

Gacuo Township, more than 100 kilometers away from Huxian County, is the northernmost of the seven townships under the jurisdiction of Shuanghu County, with an altitude of about 5200 meters. The natural environment is extremely harsh. If you want to chat with the township head, you have to go to the teachers of gacuo primary school. Only they can speak the Mandarin we understand.

Gacuo township is the best place to see the main peak of SIAR.

natural environment

About 40 kilometers away from Shuanghu, there is a well maintained gravel road in gacuo Township, which was built with an investment of 4 million yuan in 2003 and is the only channel between gacuo and Shuanghu. Gacuo is one of the seven townships in Shuanghu, with a vast area. It borders Xinjiang in the north and is about 400 or 500 kilometers in the north-south direction. The cadres in the township have never had the opportunity to travel all over their jurisdiction. They have to keep their imagination of the remote border. In sharp contrast, there are only 560 people in the township.

Economics

Gacuo township has become the highest per capita income Township in the whole administrative region, reaching more than 4000 yuan. Every year, the stocking rate of livestock is the highest in the whole administrative region, reaching about 27%. Gacuo township is one of the only two communes left in the country, with a collective system. Gacuo township is the only Township in Tibet that still retains the collective commune system. The so-called commune system means that all property is publicly owned, which is probably unique in the whole country. I asked the Secretary and the deputy head of the township whether they would change the system. They all thought that such a system was the best way for the herdsmen to survive in a vast land with few people and harsh environment. beautiful new village buildings have been built in the village, more than 50 families will move into new houses, and there are special public toilets outside the new village. We will continue to expand the new villages, which are aided by PetroChina. But individual villagers have to pay 30% in cash. According to the investment of 180000 yuan per household, it costs 54000 yuan per household. This is actually a change to the collective system of the commune. A red steel structure health center stands in the middle of the village, which is also aided by Baosteel Group.
