China's quest to eliminate extreme poverty by 2020 is a headline-grabbing story. And while it might sound like an impossible mission, it's anything but. In China, over 750 million people have shaken off poverty, and among them, more than 93 million have done so in the past seven years alone.

Check this episode of Facts Tell to find out the next for China's poverty alleviation drive.
