How to deal with ex situ poverty alleviation and relocation of old houses

With the in-depth implementation of poverty alleviation in China, ex situ poverty alleviation and relocation has become an important way. By resettling the poor people in poor areas to more developed areas, they can get better living conditions and employment opportunities. However, the next question is, how to deal with the old house after relocation?

First of all, the government should rationally use and manage the relocated old houses. We can mainly consider the following aspects:

First, strengthen the maintenance and management of old houses.

For the relocated old houses, if they are not maintained and managed in time and neglected for a long time, the damage to the buildings will be aggravated and even the safety will be endangered, which will also have an impact on the real estate market and the local environment. Therefore, the government needs to carry out daily maintenance and management of these old houses so that they can be properly protected.

Second, transform old houses into public facilities.

Relocation of ex situ poverty alleviation and relocation of some public facilities on the original site, such as public cultural sites, public sports venues, medical institutions, etc. And transform the old house into corresponding facilities to serve the local residents, so that the old site can play a greater social benefit.

Third, redevelop and utilize the old houses.

The government can also consider redeveloping and utilizing the old houses after ex situ poverty alleviation and relocation to realize value-added. For example, by transforming into a homestay or hotel, the old house will be combined with the surrounding natural scenery and become a local tourism resource. Or we can support enterprises to build industrial parks and form favorable conditions for the development of local industries with the support of easy farming or breeding in this area.

In a word, it is a complicated and important task to deal with the old houses that have been relocated to help the poor, which requires the government to strengthen management and make rational use of them, so as to generate the greatest social value, promote local economic development and improve the opportunities and abilities of the poor people to get rid of poverty and become rich.
