Background To promote the utilization of energy saving technologies in the TVEs in the cement, foundry, brick making and coking sub-sectors of China, assist related enterprises in overcoming the technology, market, policy and financing barriers in this process to reduce GHG emission, the Global Environmental Facility (GEF) supported the project of Energy Conservation and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction in Chinese Township and Village Enterprises —Phase II. The purpose of the subcontract, Replication of Regulatory Reform Strengthening Strategy in Countries/Regions for the Establishment and Capacity Building of Local Policy Implementation Committees-Phase III, is to assist 11 replication areas selected in the LPIC building on the basis of summary of experiences of Phase I and Phase II, This is the final report on Replication of Regulatory Reform Strengthening Strategy in Countries/Regions for the Establishment and Capacity Building of Local Policy Implementation Committees-Phase III submitted to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) by MOA Township Enterprise Development Center (TEDC) in association with MOA Center for Development of Energy 8 Environmental Protection Technology (EEPTDC) (hereinafter referred to as "subcontractors"). This report is a summary of the activities carried out from July 4, 2005 to October 24, 2006. Here is one point to say that though the subcontract was officially signed in October 2005, the implementation started in July 2005 under the suggestion and requirement of PMO and PIC. 2. Activities Conducted The activities conducted by subcontractors include: 2. 1 Prepare for the replication of LPICs in Phase III Time: July 4, 2005 —July 10, 2005 Task members: Cao Guangrning, Liu Xin, Cao Fengzhong, Zhou Hong, Tian Yishui, Meng Zhaoli, Yang Xin, Wang Defu, Pang Jun ~Out uts: Industrial Survey Plan The subcontractors collected information on the status of four industries and replication areas by network and libraries. To collect rules, regulations and industrial standard related to environmental protection and energy conservation, the subcontractor visited National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), Ministry of Agriculture (MOA), State Environmental Protection Administration (SEPA) and related industrial associations. A workshop was organized on July 7, 2005 with Mr. Xu Litong, PMO, PIC Secretariat and Hongyuan Company to analyze barriers and problems up against the subcontract implementation and debrief ideas and suggestions on capacity building of LPICs- Phase III. The industrial survey plan was finalized

Since the Reform and Opening- up Policy in 1978, major cities in China have experienced significant polycentric transition manifested by their new spatial policy framework and reshaped spatial structure. The polycentric transformation has provoked academics’ interests on structural and performance analysis in quantitative ways recently. However, little research investigates the nature of (re)formation and implementation of polycentric development policies in Chinese cities from a processual and critical perspective.

Foguangsi on Mount Wutai: Architecture of Politics and Religion Abstract Foguangsi (Monastery of Buddha’s Radiance) is a monastic complex that stands on a high terrace on a mountainside, in the southern ranges of Mount Wutai, located in present-day Shanxi province. The mountain range of Wutai has long been regarded as the sacred abode of the Bodhisattva Mañjuśrī and a prominent center of the Avataṃsaka School. Among the monasteries that have dotted its landscape, Foguangsi is arguably one of the best-known sites that were frequented by pilgrims. The er discovery of Foguangsi by modern scholars in the early 20th century has been considered a “crowning moment in the modern search for China’s ancient architecture”. Most notably, the Buddha Hall, which was erected in the Tang dynasty (618-907 CE), was seen as the ideal of a “vigorous style” of its time, and an embodiment of an architectural achievement at the peak of Chinese civilization.

After a first period devoted to religious and spiritual activ- ities (pilgrimages, pious actions, hermitage and so on), his life changed at the age of 42, when he received funds for building a Buddhist temple and a pagoda from several members of imperial family, notably the Empress Dowager Li Shi 李 氏 (Cisheng Huang taihou) 慈 聖 皇 太 后 , mother of The Wanli Emperor (1572-1620).

Antiquity Or Innovation? Architecture, Sculptures And Murals In Southern Shanxi Under The Yuan Dynasty Abstract The dissertation analyzes the different forms of art - architecture, murals and sculptures - produced in Southern Shanxi from the beginning of the fourteenth century to the early of Ming. The dissertation starts with a case study on the history of Guangshengsi, one of the most prestigious Buddhist monasteries in the region, and one of the best-preserved Yuan architectural complexes of all China. It then examines the extant Yuan architecture of Southern Shanxi, most of which were constructed in two types of structures, diantang and tingtang. It was the tingtang structure that gained increasingly popularity in the first half of the fourteenth century. Surviving Yuan buildings in Southern Shanxi belonged to religious institutions of various kinds, Buddhist and Daoist monasteries, temples and shrines of local beliefs. In many cases, these buildings were decorated with murals and contained religious images in various forms. Unfortunately, because of their high artistic achievements and with few exceptions, murals and sculptures were either lost or found their way to the collections of private collectors and museums.
