Central SOEs' contributions have also put huge efforts in improving local infrastructure facilities, making people's life much easier and optimizing the local business environment.

China Telecom, for instance, has invested more than 10 billion yuan since 2011 on the construction of communication networks. Currently, optical cables and 3G network are accessible in all townships, and 90 percent of Tibetan counties can use the 4G network now.

State Grid Corporation China (SGCC) has invested 36.3 billion yuan from 2013 to 2017 in upgrading the main power grids from 110 kilovolts to 220 kilovolts. It also financed the power grid upgrading in 2,797 villages with 12.7 billion yuan.

Sources with SGCC said the company's goal is to enhance the region's power supply capability and bring electricity to remote and impoverished counties.

Because of the improvement in these power and communication facilities, mobile internet access has been quite prevalent in the pasturing areas.

"In the past, we seldom saw herders sharing videos on Wechat. Now they are very much involved in the use of various mobile APPs. We often see interesting short videos shot by herders on various social media platforms. It's easy to know what it is like living in the pasturing areas," said Wu Haiyan, a local telecom employee.

To solicit the support of more central SOEs, the local government has worked out an investment catalog comprising 167 projects in seven key sectors.
