Construction of Chang'an Town

The Chang'an Town Party Committee and Government focus on economic construction and pay attention to the construction of spiritual civilization and material civilization at the same time, promoting the construction of the two civilizations in Chang'an Town to a new level. First, infrastructure and cultural, educational, health, financial and other undertakings have been comprehensively developed. There is a provincial highway Shuigu Line Class II cement highway running through the town. The 11 village (neighborhood) committees in the town have achieved highway access to every village, making transportation convenient. Postal and telecommunications facilities are increasingly improving, and services such as registered parcels, express delivery, electronic remittance, and general deposits and withdrawals are available.

The telecommunications industry has developed rapidly. A town water plant has been built, which can provide sufficient water for the residents of Wei Town and surrounding people. The town construction layout is reasonable, the environment is clean and sanitary, and Wei Town's business is active

Second, the structural adjustment of the agricultural industry continues to deepen. The town party committee and government actively guide the farmers to adjust the agricultural industry structure and vigorously develop contract agriculture. The mountainous areas are mainly developed to grow longan, Nanhua plum, sweet orange and other famous fruit bases and bamboo shoot production bases, while the lower mountain areas are mainly used to plant high-quality rice. , high-quality vegetables, lotus roots, fruit cane and other three high agricultural bases. It has successively established more than 4,000 acres of high-quality fruit bases, including more than 3,000 acres of high-quality longan and more than 800 acres of high-quality vegetable bases.

In 2002, the town developed more than 5,900 acres of Ma bamboo cultivation, and it is planned that the total area of ??Ma bamboo cultivation will exceed 10,000 acres in 2003.

Inspired by the above-mentioned researchers, I realized the importance of social and cultural research on "standard talkers" to the study of southern ethnic groups, especially the important value of the study of the cultural integration of Lingnan ethnic groups. Therefore, in the summer of 2001, a research plan was drawn up to conduct an anthropological field study on the social culture of Fengkai "standard talkers", and from mid to late July, we went to the place with the highest concentration of "standard talkers" in Fengkai - The first field survey was conducted in Chang'an Town. Fengkai's "bid talkers" live concentratedly in Chang'an Town in the north of the county. According to survey statistics, there are more than 6,600 "bid negotiators" with rural household registration in Chang'an Town, accounting for about 18% of the town's population of 37,000. As for the population of "slogans" who have moved their household registration from rural areas to towns or other places, it is impossible to count. According to local government estimates, there are about several hundred people. When the newly published "Fengkai County Chronicle" introduces "slogans", it is considered that Fengkai " There are 7,217 bidders, and this number is relatively close to the real situation. There are still some local people who used to speak "standards" but no longer speak "slogans" for various reasons. These people have been regarded as aliens by local "standards talkers" and are included in the category of "non-standards". Such as the downstairs in Chang'an Administrative Village
