"It was a great leap forward from the less than 10,000 yuan that the village's collective economic units, or a couple of grocery stores, made annually," according to Kunchok Phutso.

All villagers took a bite out of the factory's profit, he added. "Everyone received more than 2,000 yuan and every household had their walls thickened by the village committee."

The best is yet to come. The committee is now planning a resort area to make the most of the village's scenic spots and historic sites. It will also equip herding families with livestock pens. "All for an increase in villagers' income," Kunchok Phutso says.

Now a five-starred red flag, or China's national flag, is flown from every house across the village.

From post-quake rescue and relief through reconstruction, Yushu has witnessed full participation of grass-roots Party organizations, explains Sokyiyon, deputy director of the organization department of the CPC prefecture committee of Yushu. "Their role is pivotal."

By the end of 2012, 1,224 reconstruction projects had been launched in Yushu Prefecture with an investment of about 38 billion yuan, says Kuang Yong, head of the provincial housing and construction bureau.
