| Through30years of reform and opening up, the economy of Guangdong Province gainsthe success that attracts worldwide attention. But income gap expands, and unbalanceddevelopment between areas is still outstanding. According to international experiences, whenthe poverty rate falls to10%, the issue of regional poverty is solved, the type of poverty turnsfrom universal to hierarchical, from regional to dispersive, and the poverty alleviation workneeds more professional and meticulous compared with large-scale in the past. At the end of2009, Guangdong Province began to implement the policy of “Plan to Home’ Responsibilieyto People†poverty alleviation mobilizing forces across the province to carry out targetedpoverty alleviation measures. Two years later, the efficiency of this policy and its relevantmeasures need to be assessed.Long-term since, government leading poverty alleviation work has been focusing onmacroscopic assessment rather than individual evaluation, focusing on results rather thanspecific measures and process, so its efficiency has been always the subject of suspicion.Based on the efficiency perspective, poverty alleviation work must obtain " efficiency ",otherwise another way is asked for. Long-term investment of " Inefficient " or low efficiencywill inevitably lead to the waste of resources, thus into unsustainable situation. This papertakes Jiangmen city as an example, trying to use indicators of economics analysis, such asreturn on investment, multiple linear correlation regression analysis and other mathematicalmodel to analyse and eval uate the efficiency of poverty alleviation work, trying to build upefficiency evaluation system and index for poverty alleviation work.This paper analyzed the underlying causes of low efficiency in poverty alleviation work.All levels of government takes steps aimed to pass over superior governments’ inspection, tocomplete the tasks assigned, rather than to alleviate the poverty itself. Target deviationinevitably leads to deviations in measures. It is the prime cause for low efficiency ofgovernment leading poverty alleviation. At the operational level, the extensive managementto poverty alleviation project,setting up project at random, lack of assessment, and imperfectindicators also lead to poor efficiency. As the mechanism of system, lacking of externalsupervision,administration for government dominant poverty alleviation fund is unsound. Poverty alleviation work only gets award but not punishment, and the object is selectedadversely just depending on social welfare. Social coordinated system is incomplete.Socialsecurity and participation is inadequate.All of these count against efficiency being conducive.This article makes specific research on how to improve the efficiency of povertyalleviation. It puts forward relevant suggestions to perfect the policy of "double to" povertyalleviation based on domestic and foreign successful experiences. Poverty alleviation is asocial system project, needing good social atmosphere and the related mechanism. This paperstudies on how to construct efficient working system and mechanism for poverty alleviation,putting forward relevant policy suggestions to help to form beneficial cycle between goodmechanism and efficiency. Because internal and external conditions and working measure forpoverty alleviation in our country are universal and similar, this research has certain referencesignificance on the issue throughour country. |
