我们的祖国,是一个各民族团结友好、和睦的大家庭。改革开放以来,全国各个民族地区的经济和社会同过去相比,发生了显著的变化。促进民族地区经济和社会的发展,当然有多方面的因素,而加强精神文明建设却是不可缺少的重要因素之一。这一点,我们从海南黎族苗族山区在大赶特区经济建设中所发生的深刻变革,便可看到精神文明建设产生的巨大作用。 Our motherland is a large family of united, friendly and harmonious people of all ethnic groups. Since the reform and opening up, significant changes have taken place in the economy and society in all ethnic regions across the country as compared with the past. Of course, there are many factors that can promote the economic and social development in the minority areas. Strengthening the building of spiritual civilization is an indispensable factor. In this regard, we can see the tremendous role that spiritual civilization has played in the profound changes that took place in the economic construction of the Miaoshan District in Hainan Province.
