The report is divided into 4 parts: the first part is an overview of social security; the second part is about the policy documents regarding social security which have been launched in recent years; the third part reveals recent social security news about each province, city, autonomous region, and municipality; the fourth part is about policies related to the current situation regarding the openness of government information. For detailed information, please read the report. 1. An Overview of Social Insurance Social security, commonly referred to as the “five insurances and housing provident fund (wu xian yi jin),” is the social insurance system China created to deal with the risks of aging, losing the ability to work, etc. The social insurance discussed in this report includes old-age insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, maternity insurance, work-related injury insurance, and housing provident fund. The section on old-age insurance also refers to a social insurance that guarantees a basic standard of living for workers after they have reached the state's prescribed labor discharge obligation, or left the labor position due to the loss of the ability to work. The insurance aims to enhance the ability of workers to reduce old-age risk, while making up for the lack of family pension. Medical insurance is a social insurance that provides medical expenses and services to workers who are within the legal scope when they are sick or injured. Work-related injury insurance, also known as occupational injury insurance, refers to a social insurance that allows workers (or their family members) to receive material assistance from the state if they suffer an accidental injury or contract an occupational disease at work and are therefore temporarily or permanently unable to work. Unemployment insurance is a social insurance that grants material assistance to workers who are within the legal scope when they lose their financial resources due to unemployment. Maternity insurance is a social insurance that provides necessary financial compensation and healthcare to pregnant women workers who temporarily stop working. The housing provident fund refers to the long-term housing deposits stored by state organs, state-owned enterprises, urban collective enterprises, foreign-invested enterprises, urban private enterprises and other urban enterprises, institutions and their employees. According to the social insurance policy regulations, the fee that insured workers pay is based on last year’s average monthly wages; If an employee’s contribution base is higher than 300% of the city’s average monthly salary last year, the contribution base of this employee shall be determined at the rate of 300%. If an employee’s contribution base is lower than 60% of the city’s average monthly salary last year, the employee’s contribution base shall be determined at the rate of 60%. Each province and city decides their contribution base. Insured employees' 4 P a g e | 5 contribution base is determined using their average salary per month last year and contribute according to the prescribed rate. Employers should determine the payment wage base according to the sum of employee’s contribution base and pay for their insurance in accordance with the law. Example: In the Tibet Autonomous Region (T.A.R.), the average monthly salary for the previous year was 7,587 RMB. The highest fee was 7,587 RMB×300%=22,761 RMB per month. The lowest fee was 7,587 RMB×60%=4,552.2 RMB per month. Currently in Lhasa, for the industry workers’ old-age insurance, the employer must buy 19% and the individual worker pays 8%. So in Lhasa, the formula for the lowest amount an employer might pay is 4,552.2 RMB×19%. The formula for the highest amount an employer might pay is 22,761 RMB ×19%. The rate for work-related injury insurance is calculated according to the rate of the industry difference and rate within the industry1. Most

Yet, systematic research on spatio-temporal urbanization patterns and drivers along the urban–rural gradient is rarely reported for northwest China. Here, we use land-use data from 1980 to 2015 to explore land-use change, urbanization intensity, and drivers in northwest China. Our results display direct and indirect effects of urban expansion on farmland loss, but also spatio-temporal heterogeneity in the urbanization patterns. While the earlier years were dominated by infill and land conversion close to city centers, the later years displayed sprawling urbanization following the constraints of terrain and administrative boundaries at the cost of farmland. Our regression analysis of spatial variables found a strong relationship with urban planning factors. The spatial analysis of urbanization patterns revealed indirect land-use change on former farmland. Furthermore, we found that regional geography and historic sites considerably influenced land conversion. Overall, our findings indicate the need for sustainable planning strategies that synthesize approaches to farmland and historic site protection and consideration of regionally specific landscape characteristics.

Three major components of producer services – financial, information consultancy and computer services – indicate the development of advanced economic functions that drive growth. This research assesses producer services in Xi'an, the biggest city in Western China. Methods include ArcGIS analysis of the spatial layout of service sector companies and interviews with corporate managers. Highly agglomerated sectors display different spatial characteristics resulting from the interaction of market demand, urban planning and government policy directing the growth and place of these tertiary functions. Resumen. La economía China, en fase de maduración, plantea interrogantes en cuanto a la convergencia de los patrones espaciales urbano-económicos con los de los países desarrollados. Tres componentes principales de los servicios a la producción – financiamiento, consultorías de información y servicios de informática – sirven de indicadores del desarrollo de aquellas funciones económicas avanzadas que impulsan el crecimiento.

  • 1 China Xi'an-Ankang Railway Construction Project
    China Xi’an-Ankang Railway Construction Project (1)-(3) (CXVII-P73, CXVIII-P73, CXIX-P73) External Evaluator: Mitsue Mishima (OPMAC) Field Survey: October 2004 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Mongolia Beijing North Korea China South Korea Project site Xian Nepal Ankang Bhutan India Taiwan Myanmar Vietnam Laos Project site location map (Xian-Ankang, Shannxi Province) Qingcha Tunnel 1.1 Background The project site (Xian- Ankang) is located in the southern part of Shaanxi Province where the 3000-meter high Qinling Mountains extend over 1500 kilometers, and was therefore undeveloped due to difficulties in transportation and remoteness from cities. Southwest of the project site is Sichuan Province, the largest province with a population of 110 million accounting for 10% of the population of China. However, as there is no other transport route to Sichuan Province than taking a detour around the Qinling Mountains, there were only limited routes to transport energy and everyday commodities from the north. Railway transport from other regions to Sichuan Province depended on Baoching Line (Baoji-Chengdu) from the north and Xiangyu Line (Xiangfan-Ankang-Chongquing) from the east, and both lines were operating to full capacity. It was particularly difficult to double-track Baoching Line, which takes a detour to avoid the Qinling Mountains because of 1) long distance of transport, 2) large cost to transport on a gradient at an angel of 3%, and 3) the topographical problem. The opening of the electrified single track of Xian-Ankang Line not only helped increase the transport capacity within Shaanxi Province but also shortened the traveling distance to Chongquing and eased the transportation load on Baoching Line.

  • Third Party Evaluator's Opinion on Xi'an-Ankang Railway Construction
    Third Party Evaluator’s Opinion on Xi’an-Ankang Railway Construction Project (1)-(3) Qunren Li Research Professor China Academy of Railway Sciences Impact As has expounded upon in the Ex-post Evaluation Report, the construction and operation of the Xi’an-Ankang railway has helped push economic development in the zone of impact by increasing the freight transportation volume, those of ores of various kinds in particular. In a similar manner, the increased passenger transportation volume with the construction of the line has also brought economic benefits to the region. Apart from Xi'an and Ankang, major cities at the two ends, an important administrative district that the Xi'an-Ankang railway passing through is Shangluo (consisting of Zhashui county and Zhen'an county), a city located in the Qinling mountainous area which, before the construction of the Xi'an-Ankang railway, suffered slow economy development and urban construction due to poor communication. The city enjoys many natual advantages for development: close to provincial capital Xi'an city, with a climate of pleasant cool in summer, little air pollution and nice scenery, which makes it a nature summer resort and offers a prospect of turning into the "back garden" of Xi'an city. Yet the handicapped traffic to Xi’an before the construction of the Xi’an-Ankang railway, taking more than more than 5 hours, made its advantages unable to be brought into play . Now the communication has become a lot convenient with the travel time between Xi'an and Shangluo shortened to a little more than 1 hour.

  • Multi-Disciplinary Determination of the Rural/Urban Boundary: a Case Study in Xi’An, China
    sustainability Article Multi-Disciplinary Determination of the Rural/Urban Boundary: A Case Study in Xi’an, China Lei Fang 1,2 and Yingjie Wang 1,2,* 1 State Key Lab of Resources and Environmental Information System, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 11A Datun Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing 100101, China; [email protected] 2 University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, 19A Yuquan Road, Shijingshan District, Beijing 100049, China * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-010-6488-9077 Received: 19 June 2018; Accepted: 23 July 2018; Published: 26 July 2018 Abstract: Rapid urbanization in China has blurred the boundaries between rural and urban areas in both geographic and conceptual terms. Accurately identifying this boundary in a given area is an important prerequisite for studies of these areas, but previous research has used fairly simplistic factors to distinguish the two areas (such as population density). In this study, we built a model combining multi-layer conditions and cumulative percentage methods based on five indicators linking spatial, economic, and demographic factors to produce a more comprehensive and quantitative method for identifying rural and urban areas. Using Xi’an, China as a case study, our methods produced a more accurate determination of the rural-urban divide when compared to data from the National Bureau of Statistics of the People’s Republic of China. Specifically, the urbanization level was 3.24% lower in the new model, with a total urban area that was 621.87 km2 lower. These results were checked by field survey and satellite imagery for accuracy.
