贫困不仅仅表现为经济上和物质上的贫困，同时也是文化上和精神上的贫困，人的文化和精神上的素质提高是脱贫的基础。新的科学技术的发展和运用对贫困问题来说既是挑战也是机遇，要充分认识到新技术在脱贫致富中的重要作用。贫困问题和其它社会问题形成的恶性循环，需要通过形成社会合力实行综合治理。 Poverty is not only manifested as economic and material poverty, but also cultural and spiritual poverty. The enhancement of human culture and spiritual quality is the foundation of poverty alleviation. The development and application of new science and technology are both challenges and opportunities for poverty. We must fully recognize the important role that new technologies play in getting rid of poverty and getting rich. The vicious cycle of poverty and other social issues needs to be managed through the formation of social co-operation.
