Joint defense team of farmers and herdsmen in Changguo Township

Changguo Township, Saga County, Shigatse region, bordering Nepal, has two border posts and five pass passes, with an average altitude of more than 5000 meters. Under such severe border situation and harsh natural conditions, the officers and soldiers of the border police station here carry forward the glorious tradition of "no fear of hardship, no lack of oxygen" and guard the 105 km long border line and 3370 square kilometers border management area. Because of its large area and long border, Changguo border police station, which is relatively short of police force and vehicles, is unable to carry out daily patrol work. Sometimes, under special circumstances, patrol work can only be carried out intermittently. Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the police station often carry out activities such as anti separatist struggle education and patriotism education to do good and practical things for the local people and lay a solid mass foundation. On January 1, 2003, the Changguo border police station selected 24 local people in its jurisdiction and hired them as border guards. There are 1251 farmers and herdsmen in 273 households in Changguo township. They all live a happy life under the favorable policies of the party. In the past two years, most of them have lived in the houses built for them by the state. They are very grateful to the party and the motherland. joining the joint defense team and maintaining the stability of the border have become the most proud thing for the local people. Young people rushed to join in, so that the number of joint defense team members increased to more than 80. Although the monthly salary of the joint defense team members is only more than 200 yuan, the masses still said: "as long as you can join the joint defense team, you can not get any reward." "Under the good policies of the party and the state, our lives have changed a lot. As the villagers of the border village, they are duty bound to maintain the peace and stability of the border." Changguo village Party branch secretary Dawa said.
