The Group faced tremendous pressures on its operation under the extremely acute macro situation and policy challenge. To effectively respond to the various adverse factors, the Group conducted practical moves based on its actual production conditions, maintained and updated production equipment, improved and optimised production processes and perfected its technologies. It adopted various measures to effectively improve its production efficiency and minimise operating costs and charges to ensure stable production operation. In 2020, the revenue of the Group increased by 29% to HK$1.79 billion. Profit attributable to shareholders of the Company for the year decreased by 42% to HK$129 million due to the impairment of assets. The solid waste treatment industry is entering a new stage of development and enterprises in the industry are putting more focus on high-quality development. Under the market environment with increasingly intensifying competition, the Company bravely encounters challenges, firmly seizes opportunities, steadily expands markets and proactively explores the development of new sectors in the solid waste segment. Firstly, it continues to deepen and develop its waste incineration projects. By focusing on industrial policies and renewable energy subsidy policies, the Group goes for regions with better economic conditions and more friendly resources integration environment and expand its market size through addition, cooperation, acquisition and other measures. It also actively adopts integrated environmental sanitation, industrial parks with circular economy and other methods to incorporate sludge, kitchen waste, biomass and other new solid waste projects into its existing project portfolios. Secondly, it strives to explore and develop emerging businesses. The Group improves its business diversification quality to achieve all-round business growth and focuses its study in trying to propel its projects on resources utilization and recycling of industrial solid/hazardous wastes. It pays close attention to waste sorting, organic waste treatment, soil restoration, landfill closure and other relevant projects, explores operable business models and fosters new profit drivers to improve enterprise profitability. The Company will implement the concept of green development, firmly adhere to the strategic positioning of “becoming a domestic leading provider offering comprehensive services on environmental improvement” under the general background of national ecological civilization construction and promote high-quality, healthy, orderly and sustainable development of the Group that integrate with the “14th Five-year” national strategic development plans. Ke Jian Chairman Hong Kong 31 March 2021 5 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Beijing Enterprises Environment Group Limited – Annual Report 2020 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS BUSINESS REVIEW Solid Waste Treatment Segment During the year under business review, the Group operated eight household waste incineration power generation projects with waste treatment capacity of 10,225 tonnes/day, and one hazardous and medical waste treatment project with waste treatment capacity of 35,000 tonnes/year. The Group has three household waste incineration power generation projects under construction, including two expansion projects and one new project with waste treatment capacity of 4,350 tonnes/day. Waste Business treatment Project Name Region Model capacity (tonnes/day) Household waste incineration power generation projects: Haidian Project Beijing BOT 2,100 （北京市海澱區循環經濟產業園再生能源發電廠項目） Gaoantun Project Beijing BOT 1,600 （北京高安屯垃圾焚燒項目） Ha’erbin Project Heilongjiang BOT 1,600 （哈爾濱雙琦垃圾焚燒發電項目） Changde Project Hunan BOT 1,400 （常德市生活垃圾焚燒發電項目） Taian Project Shandong BOO 1,200 （泰安生活垃圾焚燒發電項目） Shuyang Project Jiangsu BOT 1,200 （江蘇省沭陽縣垃圾焚燒發電項目） Zhangjiagang Project Jiangsu BOO 900 （張家港市生活垃圾焚燒發電廠項目） Wenchang Project Hainan BOT 225 （文昌市生活垃圾焚燒發電廠項目） Changde Project (Phase III) Hunan BOT 600 # （常德市生活垃圾焚燒發電項目（三期）） Zhangjiagang Jingmai Project Jiangsu BOT 2,250 # （張家港市靜脈科技產業園生活垃圾焚燒發電項目） Yanzhou Project # Shandong BOT 1,500 （濟寧市兗州區生活垃圾焚燒發電項目） Hazardous and medical waste treatment project: Hengxing Project Hunan BOT （湖南省衡陽危險廢物處置中心項目） # Projects under construction During the year under business review, owing to the continuous impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, together with the vigorous promotion of household waste sorting practice in various cities, the volume of household waste decreased. While strictly implementing measures to prevent and control the epidemic and ensure the stable operation of machinery units, the Group took various measures to broaden revenue from other businesses, which, to a certain extent, had reduced the adverse impact on revenue due to the shortage of household waste intake. In response to the problems of waste incineration in winter and the continuously making operating loss in prior years at the Ha’erbin Project, the Group was able to turn around from loss into profit during the year through technological improvements and improved operational and production management. During the year under business review, the Group had invested approximately HK$445 million in construction, expansion and technical renovation works for its projects, contributing additional revenue to the Group. 6 Annual Report 2020 – Beijing Enterprises Environment Group Limited MANAGEMENT

  • Bare Branches and Social Stability-A Historical Perspective from China
    Bare Branches and Social Stability-A Historical Perspective from China Quanbao Jiang Institute for Population and Development Studies School of Public Policy and Administration Xi’an Jiaotong University Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, 710049, China Email: [email protected] Tel. /Fax: +86–29–8266–8384 Paper prepared for the 26 th IUSSP International Population Conference Marrakech, Morocco 27 September to 2 October, 2009 1 ABSTRACT China’s bare branches have been a great threat to social stability. Based on historical records and literature, our findings reveal that, Infanticide of girls, resulting from poverty, son preference, expensive dowry coupled with the practice of taking concubines, had led to that 20 percent of males to remain single. Under-class bare branches turned to abnormal marriage such as childbride. If no means could be taken, they turned to prostitutes, adultery or even sexual attack. Humiliated by being bare branches, they drifted away from their hometown, banded together in the form of brotherhood association, secret society, banditry and military groups. These groups posed grave threat on social stability. In the extreme, they rose up and conquered the government office, confronted government arms, destroyed social infrastructure and system, and even toppled dynastical reign. This kind of extreme violence and disorder annihilated population in thousands or even millions, and hindered social development. Keyword: sex ratio, social stability, marriage, bare branches 2 BACKGROUND Higher than normal sex ratio at birth and excess female child mortality in China has brought about the imbalanced sex ratio of the total population and a large number of missing females, which further prevent millions of males unable to find spouses, even well over the generally acceptable nubile ages.

  • The Historical Foundations of Religious Restrictions in Contemporary China
    religions Article The Historical Foundations of Religious Restrictions in Contemporary China Yu Tao School of Social Sciences, The University of Western Australia, M257, 35 Stirling Highway, Crawley, WA 6009, Australia; [email protected] Received: 12 October 2017; Accepted: 29 November 2017; Published: 1 December 2017 Abstract: The ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) abolished its total ban on religious activities in 1982. However, the distrust that the CCP feels for religions remains obvious today, and the religious restrictions in contemporary China remain tight. Conventional wisdom tells us that the official atheist ideology of Marxism-Leninism is the main reason behind the CCP’s distrust for, and restriction of, religion. However, taking a historical institutionalist perspective, this paper argues that the religious restrictions in contemporary China are in fact rooted in the fierce political struggles of the country’s two major revolutions in the first half of the twentieth century. Without the support of religious groups, the Nationalist Republicans would have found it difficult to survive and succeed in overthrowing the Qing Dynasty during the Chinese Republican Revolution in the first decade of the twentieth century. Likewise, without cooperating with a wide range of religious groups, the CCP would have struggled to defeat the Nationalist regime and the Japanese invaders in the Chinese Communist Revolution between 1920s and 1940s. Thanks to the collaborations and struggles with various religious groups during the two revolutions which lead to its eventual ascent to power, the CCP thoroughly understands the organisational strength and mobilising capability embedded within religious groups. The tight restrictions on religious affairs in contemporary China is therefore likely to stem from the CCP’s worry that prospective competitors could mobilise religious groups to challenge its rule through launching, supporting, or sponsoring collective actions.

ABSTRACT In an effort to build a modern transportation system, an economically bankrupt Qing government approved the funding and construction of provincial railways. When these provinces proved incapable of building these projects, the central government nationalized every proposed railway line to facilitate construction using foreign loans. These loans gave foreign powers considerable leverage in determining China’s future railway network. With the central government ignoring local economic and political concerns over these actions, Sichuan province experienced outbreaks of protest over railway sovereignty.

  • The Role of Japan in Modern Chinese Art Edited by Joshua A
    The Role of Japan in Modern Chinese Art Edited by Joshua A. Fogel Published in association with the University of California Press “This ambitious, very important project defines no less than a new field of inquiry, one that scarcely could have been attempted in the past. The essays in this volume add enor- mously to the documentation of what late-period Chinese art learned from Japan, and begin to formulate conclu- sions that will enrich future accounts of both Japanese and Chinese art.” JAMES CAHILL, University of California, Berkeley The modern histories of China and Japan are inexorably intertwined. Their relationship is perhaps most obvious in the fields of political, economic, and military history, but it is no less true in cultural and art history. Yet the traffic in artistic practices and practitioners between China and Japan remains an understudied field. In this volume, an international group of scholars investigates Japan’s impact on Chinese art from the mid-nineteenth cen- tury through the 1930s. Individual essays address a range of perspectives, including the work of individual Chinese and Japanese painters, calligraphers, and sculptors, as well as artistic associations, international exhibitions, the collotype production or artwork, and the emergence of a modern canon. JOSHUA A. FOGEL is Canada Research Chair and a professor of history at York University, Toron - to, and a specialist in the history of cultural and political ties between China and Japan in the mod - ern era.

  • Fin-De-Siècle Diplomat: Chen Jitong (1852-1907) and Cosmopolitan Possibilities in the Late Qing World
    Fin-de-Siècle Diplomat: Chen Jitong (1852-1907) and Cosmopolitan Possibilities in the Late Qing World by Ke Ren A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July 2014 © 2014 Ke Ren All Rights Reserved Abstract This dissertation explores Sino-Western interactions in the late Qing period through a biographical study of the diplomat-writer Chen Jitong (1852-1907). A flamboyant writer and self-appointed cultural mediator between China and France, Chen published, while serving as secretary in the Chinese legation in Paris in the 1880s, several books in French on Chinese culture and society. He also became a skilled public speaker at various learned societies and international congresses. In the last years of his life, Chen returned to China as a reformer, expectant official, and newspaper editor. With a colorful transnational life and career that was nevertheless heavily rooted in the late Qing self-strengthening and reform movements, Chen Jitong offers an exemplary case study for viability of late imperial Chinese literati culture in the modern world. Chapter 1 discusses the confluence of local literati culture and the opportunities opened for a generation of late-Qing cultural figures in the cosmopolitan environment surrounding the Fuzhou Navy Yard. Chapter 2 shows that in his writings, Chen employed an innovative mélange of classical Chinese texts and references to European literature to capture the uniqueness of Confucian values while also emphasizing the universality of human feelings and shared literary values. Chapter 3 analyzes the ways in which Chen’s public activities constituted a significant discursive and personal presence for China in fin- de-siècle Paris and at the 1889 Universal Expositions.
