Jinwan District's practices in safeguarding village cleanliness have been praised by the Office of the Central Leading Group for Rural Affairs and Ministry of Agriculture & Rural Affairs.

It earned the honor by having deployed 86,800 officials and residents to improve the living environment of 163 district villages. Cleaned up were 45,558 sites of unsightly production tools, building materials, weeds, garbage, and mounds of sludge stacked in alleys and water bodies and around residences.

Furthermore, 3,597 ramshackle houses, abandoned pigsties and cattle-stalls, latrines, and unauthorized buildings and commercial billboards were demolished. And 7,453 cases of littering, water pollution, and unauthorized cable connections were addressed. Household waste collection and harmless disposal now reaches 100 percent, as does the coverage of sewage treatment.

The district's demonstration villages are Sanban, Shaji, Haicheng, and Mutouchong. Haicheng and Sanban were named Characteristic Beautiful Villages in Guangdong Province, and eco-tours of water towns in Sanban were added to the first Boutique Routes for Countryside Tourism in Guangdong.

In 2019, Doumen District was cited for advanced village cleanliness, making Zhuhai the only prefecture-level city in Guangdong to earn this honor two consecutive times.

The Office of the Central Leading Group for Rural Affairs, Ministry of Agriculture & Rural Affairs, and other departments issued the Village Cleanup Action Plan for Rural Living Environment Improvement in December 2018. Over the past two years, more than 95 percent of domestic villages have participated in the campaign and received facelifts. This time, Jinwan is among 106 domestic counties lauded.
