BEIJING, March 22 -- The cities of Chengdu and Chongqing are famous for their different kinds of hot pots and there are endless arguments about which one is more delicious or spicier. It will only take 56 minutes by train for people from Chengdu to eat hot pot in Chongqing when the high-speed railway linking the two cities is completed in a few years. Construction is slated to start this year.The "one hour circle" is part of the plan for the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone, and the overall development project will be approved by the central government this year, according to this year's sessions of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. The two cities will generate more synergies in the future.Migrant workers from Qinghai province pick cotton in a field in Hami, in neighboring Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region. Xinjiang is the country's biggest cotton producing center.The State Council, China's cabinet, has sparked a new wave of regional development by laying out a dozen regional development plans with policy or financial support since last year.The Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta have acted as leading engines in the development of China's prosperous coastal areas. China is keen on fostering more driving forces to boost central and western regions to catch up.In January, the Wanjiang River Urban Belt in Anhui province was positioned as a national-level industrial transfer demonstration zone, and Hainan province was targeted to be transformed into an international tourist destination last December.Other western regions such as the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region and Tibet autonomous region have also become recent hot subjects for investment. Similarly, development plans for the two regions are being formulated and are very likely to be released this year or next.

HELSINKI, Feb. 13 (Xinhua) -- It was the afternoon of Feb. 12 local time in the Confucius Institute classroom at the downtown University of Helsinki. Lanterns and colorful streamers were hanging high, creating a joyful festival atmosphere.The Spring Festival, once celebrated only in China, in recent times has been gaining greater attention worldwide.And in that small classroom, aspirations of learning more about the traditional Chinese festival drew dozens of excited and attentive students from Finland and other countries.The gathering started with vice director Professor Li Yuanzheng's introduction to the origin and customs of the Chinese Lunar New Year. Then, a short video clip on the festival was played.However, the audience's participation wasn't limited just to listening and watching. To celebrate the "Year of the Tiger," they staged a string of performances to share their happiness.The performances were quite Chinese and included small dramas, Chinese folk songs, poems from the Tang and Song dynasties, and Taichi.Apparently, their love of the traditional Chinese culture simmered into the music and poetry. Additionally, the students also brilliantly displayed their achievements in learning the Chinese language.Perhaps the most symbolic icon of the Spring festival is the dumpling, which would certainly feed the hunger of the students at the Confucius Institute for both food and knowledge.Juhani Riisio, a student at the University of Helsinki, called the dumplings "quite good to taste."The students knew that dumplings are always served during the Chinese Lunar New Year holidays, but making the food was a new challenge for them.The first time doing anything is never easy. However, it could be read from the students' actions and faces that they were doing their best.It seemed that they were making the dumplings as carefully and confidently as they were at learning Chinese.Hard work and eagerness to learn usually pays off. The students were soon able to made decent looking dumplings, though the taste was still waiting to be examined.As the experimental dumplings were cooked and served, delicious smells seemed to stuff the room. Anyone who wanted to know the results of the students' efforts could see nothing but gladness and comfort from the smiles of both teachers and students.The making of a dumpling may take only a couple of hours to learn but a culture could take a lifetime to appreciate. Small and symbolic as the little dumplings are, they help to shorten the distance between the western world and China, facilitating communications amongst different peoples. By learning from each other, it is certain that our tomorrows would be defined by mutual understandings instead of mistrust.

BEIJING, Feb. 1 (Xinhua) -- China will put more investment, subsidies, fiscal and policy supports into rural areas this year so as to better coordinate urban and rural development, the central government said Sunday in its first policy document of the year."Working for coordinated development between urban and rural areas is the fundamental requirement of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way," said the document.The document, jointly issued by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the State Council, or the Cabinet, promised to improve the livelihood of rural residents, which it said is one of the main tasks in China's efforts to adjust resident income distribution system.Expanding rural demand should be the key measure in boosting domestic demand, it said, while developing modern agriculture should be considered as a major task in transforming China's economic growth pattern.It called for more efforts to maintain grain production, increase of farmers' income and good development momentum in rural areas.IMPROVING POLICY, STRENGTHENING FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO RURAL AREASThe document said that the central government would continue to improve the policy system to empower and benefit farmers. The government would also continue boosting financial input into agriculture and rural areas.The document stressed that budget expenditure should first support development of agriculture and rural areas, and fixed-asset investment first be channeled into agricultural-related infrastructure and projects in relation to rural livelihood.The Agricultural Development Bank is required to offer mid- and long-term policy-based loan services to rural infrastructure and projects related to agricultural development, which Chen Xiwen, director of the Office of the Central Rural Work Leading Group, believed as a breakthrough in China's rural financial service."It means a great amount of fund will be channeled into agricultural development, which could fill the long-time policy gaps concerning mid- and long-term policy-based loans", Chen told Xinhua in an exclusive interview Sunday.More subsidies should be channeled to increase the output of grain, potato, highland barley and peanut, as well as the purchase of agricultural machinery, the document said.The government would implement more policies for purchasing and stockpiling major agricultural products, including corn, soybean and oilseeds, to stabilize prices of major farm produce.More efforts will be made to strengthen financial services including micro-credit loans and insurance service in rural areas, according to the document.It promised that basic banking services would be available in all villages and towns in the next three years.It called for more efforts to develop township banks, loan-lending companies, and mutual funds in a bid to guide more capital flowing into the rural financial market.The central government also demanded further expansion of rural consumption market as part of the country's accelerating measures to boost consumption.MORE RESOURCES TO RURAL AREASIn a bid to narrow the development gap between the urban and rural areas, the document said the central government would roll out more favorable policies to encourage inputs from various social forces to rural areas.Enterprises which establish rural welfare foundations would enjoy tax breaks, with no more than 12 percent of their annual profits being deducted before calculation of enterprise income tax.Large and medium-sized cities, and various sectors should give an impetus to rural areas' development, providing one-to-one support and participating in industrial development and infrastructure construction in rural areas, according to the document.It also urged related departments to study favorable policies to guide more educational resources and scientific research institutions to tap into the country's vast rural regions.To ease the chronic financing shortage in the rural areas, the government required financial institutions, including the Agricultural Bank of China, Rural Credit Cooperative, and Postal Savings Bank of China, to further increase agriculture-related credit loans. The Agricultural Development Bank of China was ordered to expand the supporting fields in agriculture, and give more long-term credit support to the infrastructure construction in rural areas.URBANIZATIONMigrant workers can so far neither settle down in cities nor want to go back to the countryside, said Chen.According to Chen, 60 percent of the 150 million migrant workers were born in the 80s or 90s of last century who are referred as the "new generation of migrant workers" by the document and are not familiar with farming but dying to be part of the city life.The document listed new measures to integrate more farmers into urban life."Small and medium-sized cities and townships will be the focus of the country's urbanization plan," the document said.The country will ease the restrictions over permanent residence permits in county seats and townships so that more rural residents can move in and enjoy the same rights and public service as original urban residents, the document said.To attract more rural labors, the country will put more resources in economic growth at the county level, including preferential policies in land use, reform of government investment and taxation.The country will encourage city governments to allow migrant workers, who have stable jobs and live in the cities for a certain period of time, to join in urban housing programs.Migrant workers will also be included in the basic medical insurance and pension program in cities, the document said.RIGHTSThe government will work hard to solve the problems that harm farmers' interests, such as in land expropriation, pollution and management of village assets, the document said.An unblocked channel should be built to enable rural residents to express their requests and safeguard their rights and interests in a rational and legal way, it said.In addition, the document also pledged to promote village democracy. Efforts should be made to regulate the election procedure of village committees and heads, introduce democratic decision-making, and promote transparency in village asset management.
