The annual financial report prepared by the CASBE and the IFRS was audited by KPMG Huazhen LLP and KPMG respectively, which issued a standard unqualified audit report to the Company. Zhou Yi, the person in charge of the Company, Shu Ben’e, the person in charge of accounting, and Fei Lei, the officer in charge of the accounting office of the Company (head of accounting department), hereby warrant and guarantee that the financial report contained in the annual report is true, accurate and complete. The profit distribution plan or the reserve capitalization plan for the Reporting Period considered by the Board: As audited by KPMG Huazhen LLP, the profit for the year of the parent company for 2017 was RMB8,482,927,105.80. According to the relevant requirements of the Company Law, Securities Law, Financial Rules for Financial Enterprises (《金融企業財務規則》) and the Articles of Association of the 3 Company, the Company had appropriated 10% statutory surplus reserve, 10% general risk reserve and 10% trading risk reserve of RMB2,544,878,131.74 in total, after which, the profit available for distribution for the year was RMB5,938,048,974.06. Plus the balance of undistributed profit of RMB10,594,696,225.20 in previous years and less the dividend of RMB3,581,384,400.00 distributed according to the profit distribution plan of the Company for 2016, the accumulated profit available for distribution to investors in cash for the year was RMB12,951,360,799.26. The Company is proceeding with the Non-Public Issuance of A Shares. As regulated in the Measures for the Administration of Securities Issuance and Underwriting of CSRC, listed companies shall only issue securities after submitting the profit distribution plan and plan for share capital increase from capital reserve to the General Meeting for resolution or putting such plans approved by the General Meeting into implementation. If the company implements the profit distribution of 2017, then before completing profit distribution, the company cannot issue any securities, which is unfavorable to the procedures for the Non-Public Issuance and even requires to re-perform the relevant internal and external procedures for non-public offering. Thus, the working capital cannot be supplemented in time, which will directly influence the company’s profit of the term and long-term development. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration of factors such as the interests of shareholders and the development of the company, the company will not make profit distribution for 2017, nor will it transfer its capital reserve to increase its share capital. The Company is intended to complete related matters for profit distribution upon the completion of the Non-Public Issuance of A Shares as soon as required by relevant regulatory authorities and the Articles of Association. All independent non-executive Directors of the Company gave the following independent opinions on this profit distribution proposal: The profit distribution proposal of the company in 2017 is in line with the interests of all shareholders. All independent non-executive Directors approve this proposal and agree to submit it to the Annual General Meeting of 2017 for resolution. This profit distribution proposal was already considered and approved by the twelfth meeting of the fourth session of the Board and is to be submitted to the Annual General Meeting for 2017 for resolution. Forward-looking statements including future plans and development strategies involved in this annual report do not constitute the Company’s substantive commitments to investors. The investors are advised to pay attention to investment risks. There is no non-operating misappropriation of funds of the Company by any controlling shareholders and their related parties during the Reporting Period. 4 The Company has not provided any guarantees in favor of others in violation of the decision-making procedures during the Reporting Period. The announcement of the Company is prepared in both Chinese and English. In the event of any inconsistency, the Chinese version should prevail. Warning on Major Risks Macroeconomy and monetary policies, laws and regulations influencing financial and securities industries, rising and falling trends in commercial and financial industries, inflation, exchange rate fluctuations, availability of long and short-term market capital sources, funds raising costs and interest rate levels and fluctuations and overall economic and political conditions may have an impact on the company’s business. Besides, like other companies in the securities industry, inherent risks in the securities market, such as market volatility and trading volume, may also affect the company’s business. The company cannot guarantee the sustainability of favorable political economy and market conditions. Main risks in business operation include: policy risks from national macro-control measures, changes in laws, regulations, relevant regulatory policies and transaction rules in securities industry, which will adversely influence the business of securities companies; compliance risks from business management or professional activities violating laws, regulations or codes, which cause the company being punished by laws, being taken regulatory measures, suffering from property loss or reputation loss;

  • Analysis of Character Convergence of Jiangnan Ancient Towns Lei Yunyao , Zhang Qiongfang
    International Forum on Management, Education and Information Technology Application (IFMEITA 2016) Analysis of Character Convergence of Jiangnan Ancient Towns Lei Yunyao1, a, Zhang Qiongfang 1,b 1 Wuchang Shouyi University, Wuhan 430064 China [email protected], b [email protected] Key Words:Jiangnan Ancient Towns; Character convergence; Analysis Abstract:This article illustrates the representation of character convergence of Jiangnan Ancient Towns. It analyzes the formation mechanism of character convergence to build the whole image of these ancient towns with Zhouzhuang as a prototype. Based on Tourism Geography Theory and Regional Linkage Theory, it puts forward the fact that the character convergence can be beneficial to building a whole tourism image and to enhancing people’s awareness of ancient heritage. But some problems caused by the convergence will also be presented, such as the identical tourism development model, the backward infrastructure and the destruction of original ecology. Introduction With Taihu Lake as the center, the region of Jiangnan, the south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, is scattered all over by many historic ancient towns. These towns have a long history and deep cultural deposit. They are densely occupied and economically developed. They form a national transport network combined with inland waterway. These towns have witnessed a long-term economic prosperity in the south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and are now generally called “Jiangnan Ancient Towns”. Since 1980s, under the wave of reform, opening up and modernization construction, experience-based tourism and leisure tourism of these towns have achieved great development. Under the influence of “China's First Water Town” Zhouzhuang, some other similar towns like Tongli, Luzhi, Xitang, Nanxun, Wuzhen all choose to follow suit.

L4S 0E9 Email: [email protected] Citation: Zhang D, 2019, Jiaanbieyuan New Courtyard-Garden Housing in Suzhou: Residents’ Experiences of the Redevelopment. Journal of Chinese Architecture and Urbanism, 1(1): 526. http://dx.doi.org/10.26689/jcau.v1i1.526 ABSTRACT Cultural vitality as the fourth pillar of sustainable development has been widely acknowledged, and vernacular architecture as a major part of a nation’s material culture has entered the cultural sustainability dialogue. This recognition demands that new housing design and development should honor a local or regional identity. This in-depth case study assesses the architectural, environmental, spatial, constructional, social, cultural, and behavioral aspects of the Jiaanbieyuan (“Excellent Peace Courtyard-Garden Housing Estate”) built in Suzhou, China, in 1998. The 500-unit Jiaanbieyuan is located close to two UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites, the Canglang (“Surging Waves”) Pavilion and the Master-of- Nets Garden. It has attempted to recreate Suzhou’s traditional architecture and landscape architecture. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected through numerous research methods, including onsite surveys and interviews. The findings show the new housing forms do not promote social relations as effectively as the traditional housing of the past. Moreover, the communal Central Garden has functioned to some extent as a social and cultural activity space.

Received: 26 June 2019; Accepted: 3 September 2019; Published: 6 September 2019 Abstract: Ecological compensation is an effective means to adjust relationships among stakeholders in order to conserve and/or sustainably use ecosystem services. The current ecological compensation standards (ECS) do not well reflect the differences in ecological, social, and economic development. Thus, we took a typical urbanization area (the Suzhou–Wuxi–Changzhou region) in China as an example, because of its prominent contradiction between rapid socio-economic development and fragile ecosystem. Combined with the ecological, economic, and social conditions, the methods of ecosystem service value (ESV) evaluation, cluster analysis, and scenario analysis were used to propose an optimized spatial zoning method and optimal development scenario. Then, the ECS by different zones were determined by using ESV assessment, cost-benefit analysis, and contingent valuation method.

China) in 2003, with the aim to determine the rep- resentativeness of zones where to monitor air quality. 100 sites were selected to measure 15-days average concentrations of SO2,NOx,NO2,O3,NH3, Benzene, Toluene and Xylene in winter and summer. The distribution trend of NO and NO2, as well as the ratio of NO2/NOx was used to identify the heavy traffic polluted zones and design a network of monitoring sta- tions (macrositing). NO2/NOx ratios varied throughout the two selected seasons and from site to site clearly demonstrating the different extent and completeness of NO → NO2 oxidation processes in time and space. The exceedance frequencies of pollutants was used to design the type of monitoring equipment to be installed at each station (micrositing). An air quality monitoring network composed by 9 monitoring stations has been finally established in 2004 according to the result of this survey and is now currently running. Key Words: Air Pollution, Air Quality, Monitoring Network, NO2/NOx Ratio, Representa- tiveness emission factors (emission rates as a function of speed and 1.
