In a embroidery workshop in Shibing County, Long Luying and her colleagues use needles as pens and thread as ink to embroider flowers, birds, fish, butterflies and other elements, creating Miao embroidery works with vivid patterns. Long Luying is a provincial-level inheritor of Miao embroidery. She learned Miao embroidery from her mother at an early age. In 2006, Long Luying left her job at an embroidery workshop in Shenzhen and returned to her hometown to start her own business on hand-made Miao embroidery in Shibing County of Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture. Over the past 17 years, Long Luying has provided free embroidery skills training to local women, creating job opportunities for more than 1,000 rural women in the village. (Xinhua/Yang

    (240427) -- LIUZHOU, April 27, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Liang Zuying (1st L) makes embroidery in Wuying Village of Rongshui Miao Autonomous County, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Oct. 18, 2019. Liang Zuying, 48, hails from Wuying Village, a Miao ethnic-minority hamlet that is hidden deep in the towering mountains straddling Guangxi and Guizhou. In the past, the impassable mountains and rugged landscape rendered locals extremely poor. Due to their traditional views and poor family conditions, many parents did not send their daughters to school. Liang and many other women in the village received little education and could neither read nor speak Mandarin, a major impediment that isolated them from the outside world. From March 2020, local authorities initiated a training program in Wuying Village to teach ethnic women Mandarin, in a bid to remove language barriers between them and people beyond the village, while improving their communication and vocational skills. So far, more than 1,000 Mandarin
