The province will enhance public services, and provide tailor-made job training courses for them. Local governments also guarantee that at least one family member of a relocated household will be given a job.

Schools, kindergartens and clinics will be set up to ensure a smooth move, provincial authorities said.

The province set the goal to help 1.88 million people shake off poverty by relocation during the 13th Five-Year Plan period (2016-2020).

Alleviating poverty through relocation has been a "key drive" in the country's poverty reduction and the supply-side structural reform for the country during the past few years.

China has set 2020 as the target to finish building a moderately prosperous society and eradicate poverty.
