According to World Bank statistics, since the late 1970s, China has been responsible for over 70 percent of poverty reduction worldwide. 

More than ten million impoverished people a year on average have been lifted out of poverty in the country since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the anti-poverty campaign was "the most important contribution" to the global poverty reduction cause.
