"There are still some 50 million Chinese struggling with poverty, and by 2020 they must all be lifted out of poverty. This is my top concern now."

Xi Jinping made a three-day inspection tour in Northwest China's Ningxia Hui autonomous region. No region or ethnic group should be left behind in China's drive to build a moderately prosperous society by 2020, Xi said.

Xi has urged developed regions in the east help their partner regions in the west better fight poverty at a national conference on poverty alleviation through east-west cooperation in Yinchuan, capital city of Ningxia.
