  • these people live in the very romote mountain of china, they are one of the 15millions of the Absolute poverty population! i think they will be better after they finish their education! china have done a great job during the 20years, reduce their Absolute poverty population from 500millions to 15million! no countrys had done this job before!

  • Wow..this was a great story. It appears that Al Jazeera is not the devil America has portrayed it to be. I have watched some great and informative stories on their channel.

  • Fox News is the real Devil the official sponsor for them is the Republican Party!

  • cool

  • Amazing report!!!

  • Good documentary movie,no doubt. But there are so many like this all over the world, even in worst conditions. Thanks AlJazeera for enlightening one of many of these problems the world is facing.

  • Oh... my... god...

    One of the best news reports I have ever seen.

  • What an awesome story. I love these "first person" segments that reveal so much about the world in which we all live. Kudos, Al Jazeera!

  • Wow.. she's taking care of herself better then some adults can :) I know my aunt was about 7 taking care of 2 younger brothers and a baby (my mom) during the war. The adults had no choice but to flee. It was a tough time for everyone. I'm sure this girls parents doesn't have much of a choice.

  • If we did that here we would get arrested, even with an aunt and uncle close by.

  • It reminds me of growing up in the rural Appalachians

    Even how in Eastern Kentucky, 60% of the people do not have running water

    Now I live in Manhattan

  • No need to flag bg24955's comments. This story is certainly not "news" within China, but I can understand why the westerners are so surprised by it.

  • Very interesting interview. I would like to see more like this.

    And it looks as if she can cook better than me!
