BEIJING, Oct. 15 (Xinhua) -- The 17th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) opened its fifth plenary session in Beijing Friday to discuss the nation's next five-year development plan.The four-day meeting will review proposals for the country's 12th five-year program (2011-2015) on national economic and social development.The period would be critical for building a moderately prosperous society, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee announced last month.It would be a time of difficult issues for deepening the reform and opening-up process while accelerating the transformation of the nation's economic development pattern, said the announcement.China has pledged to build a "xiaokang" -- moderately prosperous -- society in the first two decades of the 21st century."The next five-year program will be vital for dealing with difficulties to realize the objective by 2020," said Prof. Hu Angang, a prominent expert on China's national situation in Beijing."The new program will basically be in accordance with the principles of Scientific Outlook on Development," Hu said.Despite of high GDP growth for years, China still faces huge challenges in development, ranging from unbalanced economic growth pattern, widening gap between urban and rural areas and between different regions, to environmental problems as well as international trade protectionism."China's export-driven economic growth is unsustainable," said Justin Yifu Lin, World Bank Chief Economist and Senior Vice President."Transformation of the country's economic growth pattern should still be a major issue for the next five years, 15 years and even a longer period of time."The CPC Central Committee Political Bureau said in a last month's statement that transformation of the economic growth pattern should be based on improving people's livelihoods.President Hu Jintao has pledged to adopt "Inclusive Growth," a concept created and advocated by Asian Development Bank in 2007, for resolving social problems as a result of economic development.According to Hu, inclusive growth means to spread the benefits of economic globalization and development among all countries, regions and people and to realize balanced economic and social progress through sustainable development.World Bank President Robert Zoellick said developing countries will play a more important role in balancing and stabilizing the world economy, and China's effort will be of great significance for restructuring the world economy after global downturn.A draft version of the proposals for the 12th five-year program has been offered to some delegates of the CPC's 17th National Congress and organizations outside the Party.The document was further revised based on their suggestions.Sources with the CPC said the proposals, accumulated from throughout the Party and other organizations, would become a guideline document for China's continued reform and opening-up process as well as socialist modernization.

SHANGHAI, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- Wang Lihua sent her son to a Shanghai rehabilitation center for the disabled when he was three years old. Now about to turn six, her son, who has cerebral palsy, a neurological disorder that permanently affect body movement and muscle coordination, has regained use of some parts of his body."When he first came to the center, he was not able to crawl, kneel, or stand. Now he has not only learned these abilities, but also learned to walk, even just for a short distance," Wang said.Opened in 1999, the Shanghai Rehabilitation and Vocational Training Center for the Disabled specializes in medical, educational, engineering, and vocational rehabilitation for the disabled.Feeling timid and afraid of the strange new environment at first, Wang's son now very much likes the therapists at the center."The therapists here work very hard, since they provide training to children with cerebral palsy one at a time from dawn to dusk. The children have a busy day as well. My son spends his day either having meals or training," Wang said.The hard work has paid off. Her son has learned by heart many lines of a nursery rhyme and Chinese poem, as well as addition and subtraction.Largely satisfied with the results of the rehabilitation, Wang said she was thinking about sending her son to a regular primary school next year.According to Xu Shenglin, the center's vice director, the center treats children suffering from cerebral palsy or autism with a combination of therapies such as acupuncture, massage and sports, and every child with cerebral palsy is treated in a one-on-one rehabilitation program which has an effective rate of 95 percent.The center also runs a course for parents of children with cerebral palsy to teach them about home rehabilitation.Monthly fees for each child with cerebral palsy at the center is 3,000 yuan (495 U.S. Dollars), with 60 percent covered by health insurance. Families with children with cerebral palsy receive an annual subsidy of 10,000 yuan from the Shanghai municipal government.In Shanghai, the economic center of China, there are 942,000 disabled people, accounting for 5.29 of the city's population. The city's government has spent about 4.4 billion yuan in aid programs for the disabled since 2007, which has helped set up over 2,000 aid institutions and allows 100,000 disabled people to receive subsistence and other kinds of government subsidies.Under a program that offers health and medical services at home, some 130,000 disabled people have received basic rehabilitation services and 160,000 have received health check-up service.The government in Shanghai has also financed at-home care for 15,000 unemployed and severely disabled people who are not committed to any institutions or do not receive any subsidy for day care.In China, the rights of the disabled have always been a priority of the government. A national human rights action plan for 2009 and 2010 specifies targets about guaranteeing the rights of the disabled.The Chinese government's efforts to guarantee these rights are evident at the ongoing Shanghai World Expo. Some 1.86 million people have visited the first-ever pavilion dedicated to the disabled in the history of the World Expo, as of the middle of October."The number of visitors far surpassed our expectations. I think this shows more and more people have concern for the disabled," said Cao Ziping, the director of the pavilion.

BEIJING, Oct. 8 (Xinhua) -- China launched a large-scale tree-planting program against soil-erosion along the Three-Gorge Dam section of the country's largest Yangtze River Friday, with two launching ceremonies held in Beijing and Chongqing, simultaneously.The program is aimed to raise funds from individual and institutional donors for planting trees on 3.8 million mu (253,333 hectares) on the banks of the Yangtze River in Chongqing.Jia Qinglin, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), is the honorary chairman of the organizational committee of the program.Vice Premier Hui Liangyu and Chongqing Party chief Bo Xilai attended and addressed the ceremony in Beijing.Hui spoke highly of the tree-planting program, saying that it would be new probe for the bio-environmental protection of major rivers in the country as well as a new, great contribution to the afforestation and protection of the Yangtze River.The vice premier recognized that the Yangtze River is still facing severe bio-environmental deterioration and soil erosion, though notable achievements have been made in the afforestation efforts along the river in the past decades.In his speech, Bo pledged that Chongqing will take three to five years to increase the forest coverage in the dam area to 65 percent, from the present 22.2 percent. Currently, soil-erosion has covered over 20,000 square kilometers, about 50 percent of the total area, he noted.According to previous reports, Chongqing plans to raise over 10 billion yuan (1.5 billion U.S. dollars) from institutional and individual donors for the tree-planting program.

BEIJING, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) -- Chinese legislators on Saturday passed the People's Mediation Law on the final day of the bimonthly meeting of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC), the top legislature.The law establishes the people's mediation committee as the legal organization to resolve everyday disputes, and sets down the procedure for formation of such an organization within community committees.The law stipulates that governments at county levels and above shall provide financial support for mediation work and shall honor and reward outstanding mediation committees and mediators.The law encourages people to settle disputes at the neighborhood-level, outside of courts and arbitration.To achieve that goal, the law streamlines the relation between mediation and other kinds of dispute resolution methods. It provides that courts at the grassroots level, as well as police offices, should inform parties involved in disputes about the possibility of solving such disputes through mediation.The law also spells out that agreements reached in the mediation procedure are legally binding and can be enforced by courts upon one party's request.Nonetheless, the law stipulates that mediation should be carried out in accordance with the parties' real intent. If one of the parties in dispute has explicitly refused to resolve the problem through mediation, the mediation should not be undertaken.In China, people traditionally regard going to court as a very serious action, so resolving disputes through mediation has become popular.China has more than 4.9 million mediators working in more than 800,000 mediation committees, according to the Ministry of Justice.These organizations handled more than 7.67 million disputes last year, with a 97.2-percent resolution rate, while only 1 percent went on to litigation.

BEIJING, Oct.12 (Xinhua) - Auto sales in China continued to expand last month, raising the forecast for annual sales to a record 17 million units this year, the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) said here Tuesday.Sales of automobiles rose 16.89 percent in September from a year earlier and 24.69 percent from August to 1.56 million units, while auto production was up 16.94 percent year on year to 1.59 million units, said CAAM.In the first nine months of this year, auto production reached 13.08 million units, up 36.1 percent from a year ago.A total of 13.14 million units of domestically-made auto vehicles were sold in China in the same period, up 35.97 percent year on year.Sales for the Jan.-Sept.period are quite close to the total number of vehicles sold last year, when China overtook the United States to become the world' s largest auto maker and auto market with production and sales hitting 13.79 million and 13.64 million units respectively.China' s annual production and sales of new autos are likely to surpass 17 million units this year, CAAM predicted, matching the highest annual level ever reached in the United States.Although the expansion in the sector has brought in an industrial boom and played an important role in China' s domestic demand, it has also triggered widespread concerns over the country' s energy capacity, pollution levels and rising traffic pressures.For general citizens and city planners in China, the increasing number of traffic jams is the most obvious problem in enjoying a life behind the wheel.In Beijing, the rising number of private cars, along with heavy rainfall and a spurt in holiday travel, caused a record 140 traffic jams in a single Friday evening last month. In some parts of the city that day, people spent nearly two hours on what would normally have been a 15-minute ride.Earlier this month, figures from the Ministry of Public Security revealed that the number of automobiles on China' s roads had hit 85 million, while a total of 144 million Chinese had learnt to drive vehicles.Statistics from the Beijing Transportation Research Center (BTRC) revealed that the number of registered cars in Beijing had topped 4.5 million in September, and would possibly exceed 7 million by 2015.However, the city's road system will be over-burdened by then, as its full capacity is estimated to be 6.7 million vehicles, said Guo Jifu, director of the BTRC.In addition, experts and officials have warned that the burgeoning number of vehicles could pose threats to the country' s energy reserves, as China is still highly dependent on oil imports.China's oil dependency reached alarming levels last year with imports accounting for more than 50 percent of consumption. However, that figure rose to 55 percent by the end of August this year.Xu Changming, an official with the State Information Center, said the auto market's growth should be maintained at around 1.5 times the growth in the country's gross domestic product (GDP).This means China's auto sector growth should rise less than 13.5 percent, since GDP expanded by 9.1percent in the past year.But according to Edward Prescott, the Nobel Economics prize winner in 2004, China' s vehicle production and sales may both range as high as 40 million units by 2020, and reach 75 million in 2030.Chinese officials had also warned that an unchecked expansion of China's auto industry encouraged by local authorities could harm the wider economy, and that excess capacity must be "resolutely" stopped.Chen Bin, head of industrial coordination at the National Development and Reform Commission, the nation' s economic planning body, said last month at a forum in Tianjin that local governments had been making "blind" efforts to open new factories and expand capacity, which could hamper sustainable development of the national economy.In Beijing, auto emissions were responsible for 50 percent of the city' s gaseous pollutants in 2009, he added.He said local authorities should avoid setting unrealistic output quotas for auto makers, and should end preferential land and tax policies for them.He said the government should also strengthen supervision of industrial efficiency data to guide reasonable resource allocation.China's auto industry is not only facing the tough task of boosting domestic consumption, but is also responsible for maintaining sustainable and coordinated economic and social development, Chen said.
