The couple Wang Kaiquan and Lin Zhujin pay a visit to students' home on Changyu Island of Fuzhou City, southeast China's Fujian Province, Sept. 3, 2018. Limited living conditions result in a decline in population. Islanders want to move out while outsiders can't get used to the tough environment there. The couple has struggled for long whether they should leave the island for a better life, yet in the end, they decide to stay. "We will carry on the teaching career on this island," said the couple. "As long as there are children going to school, we will stay." [Photos: Xinhua]
