Construction Kicks Off on a China Energy-aided Primary School in Puge County

On October 24, thanks to pairing assistance from China Energy, construction of Zhumushu Primary School in Puge County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, officially kicked off.

With 29.5 million yuan of accumulated investment exclusively from China Energy, Zhumushu Primary School is by far the largest non-public poverty alleviation project in education in the county. After completion, it can accommodate 630 students, which will effectively solve the problems of difficulty in schooling and poor educational conditions for children living in the Yi ethnic area.

Lying in the depths of Daliangshan Mountain, Puge County is a national-level deeply impoverished county. Over the years, the county has faced outstanding problems such as insufficient conditions for school operation, humble campus facilities, and inability to attract and retain high-caliber teacher. In order to promote poverty alleviation through education and fulfill its due obligation of providing paired assistance to underdeveloped regions as a central SOE, the Daduhe Company, a leading unit of targeted poverty alleviation, actively promotes project investment and construction in accordance with the overall arrangements of the group company. It has invested nearly 50 million yuan in the building of a number of primary schools and other educational institutions.
