Can Han Shou still keep pearls now?

You can't. According to the news from official website, Changde Municipal People's Government, on September 20th, 2008, the mobilization meeting for the comprehensive retirement of pearls in Hanshou County was held. The meeting decided that the pearl cultivation area of more than 79,000 mu in the county will be completely cleared in three years. The person in charge of the county said that with firm determination, scientific methods and strong joint efforts, we will win the tough battle of returning pearls to the lake and return Dongting Lake to clear lake. Therefore, as of August 2023, Hanshou could not keep pearls.
