Abstract: Located in mountains in western Yunnan Province，Lancang，a state- level poverty stricken county，has contiguous poor areas. Serious regional poverty has made contiguous development the county’s major poverty relief strategy. The comprehensive poverty relief project in the Lahu nationality area，which started in 2010，has become the county’ s largest model of contiguous development and resource integration.Under unified planning，the area put together all types of poverty relief funds and formed a joint force，making it possible for all specific poverty relief projects to mutually promote beneficially. The main effectiveness is reflected in plural channels of fund integration，contiguous construction of infrastructures，and large- scaled poverty alleviation industries. Due to various factors，however，problems still exist in resource integration such as obstacles in financial integration，imbalanced poverty relief project structures，weak effect in industry- driven revenue increment，and insufficient project supervision. To solve these problems，poverty relief fund integration should be planned at the provincial and municipal levels，poverty alleviation industries should distributed from the trans-regional perspective，poor local people’ s participation in industrial development should be increased， and supervision should be strengthened over local governments in the process of project implementation.

Key words: contiguous development, resource integration, anti- poverty, industrial development, contiguous poverty-stricken areas
