在少数民族地区,大力发展职业技术教育是发展民族教育,提高民族素质,实现民族进步,繁荣本地经济的最直接、最有效的手段。尤其在民族地区的农村,发展与当地农村经济紧密结合的职业技术教育,培养大批农村经济建设急需的本民族的中、初级适用人才,确是当务之急。 In ethnic minority areas, vigorously developing vocational and technical education is the most direct and effective means for developing ethnic education, improving national qualities, achieving ethnic progress and boosting the local economy. Especially in rural areas in ethnic areas, it is imperative to develop vocational and technical education that is closely integrated with the local rural economy and to cultivate a large number of primary and junior middle-aged and talented people who are urgently in need of economic construction in rural areas.
