6 INCOME AND LIVELIHOOD RESTORATION

6.1 Permanently Acquired Collective Land

D. Analysis of the Impact of Land Acquisition

The subproject, the construction of Binhe Elderly Care and Rehabilitation Center, require a permanent land acquisition of 30.52 mu land in Xiaqing Village, all being garden land. Among them, 7.46 mu is collective flexible land of Group 5 and the other 23.06 mu is contracted land of Group 2 and Group 5.

Currently, Xiaqing Village has in total 353 mu of farmland, consisting of 251 mu of cultivated land (0.18 mu per capita) and 102 mu of garden land (0.05 mu per capita). There are 20.34 mu of garden land in Group 2 to be permanently acquired for the subproject, with a land loss of 0.07 per capita mu and a land loss rate of 100%. And there are 10.18 mu of garden land in Group 5 to be permanently acquired, including 2.72 mu of contracted land, with a land loss rate of 30.77% (0.26 mu of ex-ante contracted land per capita and 0.08 mu of lost land per capita in Group 5).

Since this village is closed to city downtown, its land has already been acquired successively from the 1970s, and the income of villagers mainly came from nonagricultural activities. According to the survey results, the net income of affected persons is CNY12,087 per capita in 2017, including CNY391 of agriculture income, which account for 3.2% of the total income. The average land loss is 0.06 mu per capita and the average agricultural income loss is 213 yuan per capita will lose, which are very small. Therefore, the land acquisition for the subproject has little impact on their production and livelihoods.

E. Resettlement and Restoration Measures

1. Cash Compensation

Based on the compensation rate of CNY75,000/mu, the total compensation fee for the 30.52 mu of acquired land for the subproject is CNY2.289 million. A distribution program has been established in Xiaqing Village since the first land acquisition in

20

the 1970s, where land and young crop compensation is divided evenly into 16 shares, in which 10 shares are withheld by the village committee, and the remaining 6 shares are distributed to the registered population of each affected group evenly. This program has been followed to date without any objection or dispute. Distribution will be based on the registered population of each group as of 1984 (239 persons for Group 2 and 260 persons for Group 5).

For 10 shares withheld by the village committee, they will be used for village collective public welfare undertakings in which one part of the funds used for an annual fixed investment on the infrastructure construction of the village collective and the other part will be used for the renovation of the street and the construction of new roads or shops leasing. The village committee has to apply for the use of the funds to the town government where the special account was set up for the villages in order to supervise and monitor the use of funds. The specific process of the use of funds is illustrated as follow:

Step 1: In accordance with the “one project, one discussion” system, the village committee should propose a public welfare project plan and post it to the public. After solicited the views of the villagers, the plan should be submitted to the villagers’ group meeting or villagers' representatives’ conference for discussion and made a decision of by voting, then the project will be established.

Step 2: If the village committee needs to use land compensation funds, they have to apply the detailed fund use plan of the project which agreed by the villagers’ representatives’ conference to the town. After the approval of the town government about the plan, the village committee could start the bidding process.

Step 3: The villagers will on behalf of the supervision of the construction progress and quality, etc. during the implementation of the project.

Step 4: The village committee will organize acceptance testing after the completion of the construction. 2. Occupation and Training Opportunities

21

Since the village is located in the county town and surrounded by a number of enterprises, most villagers, aged from 40 to 60 years old, chose to work nearby. They were paid by the piece, averaging CNY80/day. And some villagers are self- employed in the industries of catering, commerce, etc., with monthly pays ranged from CNY1,500 to CNY2,000. It is noticed that in Xiaqing Village, 76.01% of household income is from government employment or work outside, and 8.22% of villagers deal with agriculture and other industries but are able and willing to get employed to increase income. Therefore, villagers support the subproject and expect to receive jobs through training, especially female and elderly laborers.

Through repeated consultations, RECID promises to offer a certain number of temporary jobs at the construction jobs, such as construction site cleaning, material transport, and earthwork, with daily pays of CNY80–110. Some regular jobs will also be offered at the construction stage, such as cooking and security, with monthly pays of about CNY1,200. Jobs offered at the operation stage include cooking, cleaning, security, laundry, and nursing, with monthly pays of CNY1,800– 3,000. The above jobs will be first made available to villagers in Xiaqing Village. The living standard of affected persons has been restored.

6.2 Protection of Women’s Rights and Interests

Local women prefer working at nearby enterprises or doing work and housework at home. At the operation stage of the subproject, the elderly care and rehabilitation center, and the daycare centers will offer many caregiver jobs, which will be offered mainly to local women, and also receive some old people to be cared for, thereby freeing up some women from housework and enabling them to earn more money. Thus, women will contribute more to household income and enjoy higher family status.

In the subproject, the following measures will be taken to protect women’s rights and interests:

22

1) Affected women will receive relevant information during resettlement, and are able to participate in resettlement consultation. The compensation agreement must be signed by the couple.

2) Priority will be given to affected female laborers in skills training to ensure that their economic status will not be reduced.

3) A certain number of affected women will receive unskilled jobs (at least 20% of all unskilled jobs) during project construction. In addition, women will receive equal pay for equal work.

Land compensation has been paid to affected persons and all of them were satisfied with it. They wished the elderly care project could start the construction as soon as possible since they can be employed in the project to level up their income.

19th August 2020 – Xiaqing Village – Qinglin He

Land compensation is paid at 87,000 yuan. According to the village convention, 40% will be given to the affected villagers and 60% will remain in the village collective. The compensation is 16 times, and the villagers compensate 32625 yuan/mu. The land compensation was issued on April 9, 2019, and they all signed it. The money left in the village is used for village development and 60 yuan/month subsidy for people over 60. There is not much land now. It is mainly used for part-time work and greening. You can also go to work in fertilizer plants and cement plants. There are 1,900 people in the village, there are still 50 mu of land, there is no enterprise, and the per capita income is 25,000 yuan. Social security is the first priority, and facade houses are used as employment opportunities. The life of ordinary people is stable. There are 12 low-income households in the village, and targeted poverty alleviation households have been lifted out of poverty.

2 IMPACTS OF THE SUBPROJECT

Permanent Acquisition of Collective Land

There will be a total of 39.75 mu of collective land in Xinleitou Village, Xinleitou Town acquired for the subproject. The land acquisition will affect both the landowner (Xinleitou Village) and the land user (Dayu Group, which is also the owner of the subproject).

According to the transfer agreement, Xinleitou village transferred 115.6 mu of land to Dayu Group in 2005 due to its debt crisis. Before the transfer, the land owned by the village collective consisted of unutilized shrubbery and concaves, having no income and no affected person from the land. After the transfer, Da Yu Group Co., Ltd. arranged two employees to level the land and to plant a large number of small saplings on it. Therefore, the land acquisition of the subproject only affects Xinleitou Village and the proprietor, which is also the existing users of the proposed acquired land. Land acquisition (LA) will not directly affect the villagers in Xinleitou Village. See Table 2-1 for the summary of the land acquisition of the subproject:

6 INCOME AND LIVELIHOOD RESTORATION

Impacts and Restoration Plans for Acquired Collective Land

There will be 39.75 mu of collective land, owned by the village collective of Xinleitou Village, Xinleitou Town, acquired by the subproject, on which saplings thereon are grown are owned by Dayu Group Co., Ltd.

The land acquisition will affect both the landowner, Xinleitou Village and the land user, Dayu Group Co., Ltd, which is also the owner of the subproject.

This plot was transferred to Dayu Group Co., Ltd. in 2005, used to be a shrub and hollow land left unoccupied and owned by village collective. After the transfer, Dayu Group Co., Ltd. assigned two workers to level this plot and to grow saplings thereon. Hence, the land acquisition will affect Xinleitou Village, the owner of Dayu Group Co., Ltd., which is also the land user, and its two workers. But it will not affect villagers in Xinleitou Village directly.

The two affected workers will still work at Dayu Group. Since only 39.75 mu out of the 115.6 mu of total transferred land will be acquired for the subproject, the 2 affected employees will work on maintaining the remaining trees, and their income will remain unchanged.

In addition, Dayu Group promises to offer pre-job training (have not commenced yet) to villagers in Xinleitou Village and to make jobs first available to them, 60% of these jobs are women-only, and to promote the employment of local labor. Dayu Group will also offer 20 unskilled occupations, 70% of these jobs are women-only, to villagers in Xinleitou Village. See Table 6-1 for the income change on the affected population.

I fully support the Subproject since it is beneficial for the elderly. The project land has no effect on my income. In the past two years, I worked in the village committee, and my spouse worked in Dayu Group, earning 4000 yuan a month. Life is stable. The village is preparing to build a Tongyi Real Estate Company and is currently expropriating land to improve the lives of the people. The company attracted 21 jobs.

Resettlement Plan for non-Residential Structures

A non-residential property of 250 m2, which was built and owned by Dayu Group, will be demolished due to the subproject and will be transformed into a tool room and be used for forest attendance. The Dayu Group is both the affected party and also the actual land user. Thus, no compensation and no restoration needed for non-residential structures.

Restoration Plan for Affected Infrastructure and Ground Attachments

The affected saplings are owned by Dayu Group Co., Ltd., who is the actual user of the land as well as the subject of sapling compensation. Hence, no compensation will be incurred in practice. These saplings will be disposed of by Dayu Group itself before the land acquisition.

6 INCOME AND LIVELIHOOD RESTORATION

6.1 Permanent Acquired Collective Land

D. Impact Analysis of Land Acquisition

The construction of the subproject required a permanent acquisition of 60 mu of collective land in Beiguan village, Liwu Town, all of which are constructive land owned by village collective. The area of the land is 200 more mu in total,The area of the plot is around 200 mu including unutilized land and puddles, where the subproject acquired 60 mu of it, and it is closed to the downtown of Li county. However, the land is in a poor condition and no farming activity on it since it is quite far away from Beiguan village. And the land has been leased to an individual for operating a brick factory, which was shut down for not complying with national environmental regulations. In 2011, the brick factory reopened, throughout lease, and started manufacture hollow bricks, named as Li County Beiguan Wang Tao Novel Wall Material Plant. It signed a lease contract with the village collective with a term of 18 years and rental fee of CNY40,000/year. As of now, there are 13 years for the lease to be expired.

There are currently 950 mu of land in Beiguan village, Liwu Town in total, including 650 mu of cultivated land, 300 mu of collective construction land, and 0.41 mu of cultivated land per capita. The subproject will permanently acquire 60 mu of collective construction land with a land acquisition loss rate of 6.31%. Since the land acquired are all collective construction land and the cultivated land per capita is unchanged after the acquisition, thus there is no directly affected population.

E. Restoration for Land Acquisition and Resettlement

1. Monetary Compensation

Based on the price of CNY87,200/mu in the acquisition are, the total compensation for the 60 mu of land totaled CNY5.232 million. According to the relevant policies, the compensation fees are all paid to collective economic organizations, which are then allocated to individuals or used for funding. The

22

members of the village committee, the villagers' representatives, and members of the PMO of Li county have held two symposiums, on 14 June 2016, and 26 June 2016, respectively, to discuss the compensation rates and the allocation plan of this acquisition. There is no objection to the implementation plan that the compensation will be finally paid to the villagers, and the village collective will be no longer reserved. The guidance of the distribution is that the compensation should be allocated based on household population in 1984, with a total of 1,155 people, under the assumption that the registered household population has not increased or decreased since 1984. The villagers believe that it is quite fair for everybody. Land compensation fees are distributed equally on a per capita basis. There are 6 production teams. 1 team 9.16 mu, a total of 170 people; 2 teams 11.37 mu, a total of 217 people; 3 teams 10.7 mu, a total of 194 people; 4 teams 7.8 mu, a total of 198 people; 5 teams 9.34 mu, a total of 155 people; 6 teams 11.63 mu, A total of 208 people.

2. Employment Opportunity and Training

Since Beiguan Village is located in the urban area of Jixian County and it belongs to Chengzhong Village, which is close to the urban area, thus there are a number of textiles, rubber product and leather garment manufacturing companies nearby, such as Kaihua Fabric Factory, Donghua Woolen Mill, Li County Rubber Factory, and Li County Leather Garment Factory. 31.51% of inhabitants are employed by those factories, and most of them are paid based on piece-rate wages, with an average level of 100 to 120 CNY/day. At the same time, some villagers engaged in catering, shopping malls, and other service industries, and their monthly salary ranges from CNY2,000 to CNY3,000 per month. Through the socioeconomic sampling survey and public opinion survey of Beiguan Village, it is cleared that inhabitants in the affected villages no longer lived based on agricultural income only and 82.01% of their household income comes from the wages of family crafts and enterprises. On the other hand, 27.4% of family members engaged in agriculture and other industries. They were mostly elderly workers and they don’t have an advantage in an age when applying for a job. But they still have the physical conditions and willingness to keep working,

23

hoping to increase their family income and livelihood level. Therefore, affected villagers were supportive of the project, and hope that they can obtain certain employment opportunities through relevant training, solving the problems of employment for the idle labor force in the village, especially the women and the elderly.

Throughout repeatedly discussions and consultations, PMO understood the villagers' willingness to get trained and their employment intentions. The Li County PMO promises to provide certain temporary headcounts (including 20 non-technical positions) during the project construction period, including some daily-waged ones. The on-site release line, construction site finishing, material transportation, and earthwork works, etc., do not require professional techniques, whose salary level is CNY100~120/day. And there are some fixed employment positions, such as chef, guard, security guard, patrol, etc. Their salary level is about CNY2,000/month. The positions provided during the operation of the project include chefs, cleaning staff, security guards, laundry workers and caregivers, about CNY2,000~3,500/month. The caregivers need to be trained before on-board, women are preferred. Chefs, and cleaning staff. Security guards, etc., would prefer the elderly with their positive intention. Based on their desires, all those positions above would prefer the local inhabitants of Beiguan village.

6.2 Relocation of Enterprises

The construction of the integrated elderly care service center demolished Li County Beiguan Wang Tao Novel Wall Material Plant with a total affected area of 1027.65 m2. Li County Beiguan Wang Tao Novel Wall Material Plant leased 127 mu of collective land in Beiguan Village in 2011, engaged in environmental brick production, with an annual output value of CNY400,000 and an annual profit of CNY50,000. It rents land with a fee of CNY 40,000/year, a total of 15 employees, all of whom are male.

Since the remaining plot is a large pit and it needs more infrastructure investment to render it usable, thus the land is not suitable as a site for continuous business operation. In addition, the brick factory has not been effective in recent years,

24

and the director himself is also old. He planned to open a small shop after obtained the compensation with an estimated investment of CNY20,000 and help to take care of his grandchildren.

There are 15 employees in the Brickyard, 9 of whom are full-time employees and 6 of whom are temporary ones. Their mobility is relatively high and were generally paid on a daily basis. Since they got part-time jobs in other places, they worked for the Brickyard on a daily basis. No effect on those temporary employees. For the 9 long-term employees who are affected by the project, the factory director will promptly inform them to acquire another job after he confirmed the demolition and will give them one month's salary for each person as compensation. See Table 6.1 and Table 6.2 for the social and economic conditions and their willingness to resettle of the household of affected employees in the Brickyard. All 9 workers are working in the Sewage treatment plant now.

6.3 Protection of Women’s Rights

Although women have equal opportunities when they go out to seek employment opportunities, they still tend to work nearby or work at home with housework due to their physical conditions and social characteristics.

During the implementation of the project, the Elderly Care Service Center and daycare centers require a large number of nursing staff. The nature of the jobs determines that they are more inclined to recruit women and prefer to hire local inhabitants. As a result, women in the affected areas will have more opportunities for getting employed and will be able to balance their working life and family. The centers will also accept a portion of the elderly required nursing services, liberating women from caring for them, bringing a higher income, and contributing to a more prosper living condition. Eventually, it will promote women’s role in a family.

The project will adopt a series of measures to ensure that women's rights and interests are guaranteed during project preparation and implementation. Mainly as follows:

(1) Women in the affected areas can obtain relevant information during the resettlement process and can participate in public consultation and resettlement. The compensation agreement must be signed by both spouses.

(2) In terms of technical training, priority is given to the labor of women in the affected areas to ensure that their economic status will not be harmed;

(3) During the project construction process, ensure that a certain number of women (at least 20% of unskilled labor) have access to non-technical employment. In addition, if the work is the same, women will receive the same compensation as men.

30

7 BUDGET AND COST ESTIMATES

The fund for resettlement will be raised by Li County Veteran Home. The current fund can meet the requirements for land acquisition and resettlement of the subproject. As of 31 December 2018, a total of CNY8,542,760 of expenses were paid for the land acquisition and house relocation, accounting for 88.4% of the total resettlement budget. As of 31 December 2018, the implementing agency will pay off the land acquisition fee to the affected persons. The funding of the subproject is shown in Table 7-1.

8 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AND DISCLOSURES

On 8 December 2016, the first reviewed proposal of the acquisition of the construction land was obtained.

The implementation agency focused on public participation during the measuring survey and the land acquisition process. More than 20 meetings were held to publicize the policies of land acquisition and house demolition for the project.

In April 2014, a group of resettlement experts visited the project area, interviewed the affected households, examined the progress of the resettlement work, interviewed the grassroots cadres, and listened to opinions of the affected households on the resettlement and resettlement work.

Public participation is highly valued during the process of land acquisition and house demolition. The voices from different aspects were broadly listened to, including the opinions of women. Some reasonable requirements have been resolved during the resettlement process.

An evaluation for affected houses was conducted in 2018, which involved responsible persons and representatives of workers from affected enterprises. They all agreed with the compensation agreement and signed their name. The compensation has been paid in accordance with the agreement.

The compensation fee is evenly allocated by person. Currently there are 6 production team: Team 1 has 170 persons with 9.16 mu of land; Team 2 has 217 persons with 11.37 mu of land; Team 3 has 194 persons with 10.7 mu of land; Team 4 has 198 persons with 7.8 mu of land; Team 5 has 155 persons with 9.34 mu of land; Team 6 has 208 persons with 11.63 mu of land. The whole village supports the construction of the subproject. The source of income of villagers is majorly from working outside. Besides, they can rent their houses in the county town where each house along the street can bring rental income of CNY10,000 per year. During the acquisition progress, more than 20 meetings, each of which have over 20 persons attended (including women), have been organized to thoroughly discuss the detail of the allocation plan. All participants agreed with

32

the compensation plan.

1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.1 Project Description

A. Background of the Sub-project

Chengde City has an elderly population (60 years or above) of 583,300, account- ing for 15.43% of its gross population, where most old people cannot receive ap- propriate elderly care services. HECI plans to construct an elderly care service complex for home-, community- and institution-based elderly care by applying for an Asian Development Bank (ADB) loan.

The Sub-project includes: (i) elderly care base: the elderly care center with the total building area of 16,023 m2, including an intelligent information platform of 248.72 m2, a medical rehabilitation center with building area of 8,985.23 m2, a botanic garden of 505.01 m2, and outdoor activity space of 3,086.97 m2; (ii) community elderly care service network, including 22 daycare centers required an interior renovation of the existing properties located in the communities of Shuangluan and Shuangqiao Districts, involving 200-250 m2 of leased properties for each center, and 3 home-care service centers that located in Shuangluan Dis- trict Street Office required the supply of information platforms and facilities, in- volving 1,000 m2 of leased properties for each center, totaling 7,400 m2. When completed, the Sub-project will accommodate 370 men-times of the elderly per day and will cover 696,500 of the elderly population in Chengde City.

The elderly care base will be constructed in Dayuanbaoshan Village, Shuang- tashan Town, Shuangluan District, Chengde City, with a ground area of 30 mu. The center will be located in a fork of three roads - Yuanbao Road in the North, connecting Shuangqiao District and Shuangluan District; Luanyang Road in the West, linking Shuangluan District and High-tech Development Zone, as well as nearby villages, and across which is Dingsheng Dynasty Cultural Industrial Park; Yuanbaoshan Road in the Northwest; Mountains in the South and the East. The Sub-project has a significant location advantage since it will enjoy the convenient

3

traffic and other full-ranged municipal facilities. The location of the community el- derly care center will be determined after the negotiation with local civil admin- istration and the sign of lease agreement with community committees.

5.1 Policies for Land Acquisition

1. Guidelines on Improving Compensation and Resettlement Systems for Land Acquisition.

For compensation, (1) A unified annual output value standard. The provincial- level land and resources department shall, in conjunction with relevant depart- ments, formulate the minimum unified annual output value standard for arable land in all counties (cities) in the province, and report to the provincial people's government for approval before promulgating for implementation.

(2) If the compensation and resettlement fees for land acquisition calculated ac- cording to the multiples of the statutory unified annual output value cannot main- tain the original living standards of the land-expropriated farmers, and are insuffi- cient to pay the social security expenses for the landless farmers due to land ac- quisition, the provincial people’s government shall approve Increase the multiple; land compensation fees and resettlement subsidies are calculated at 30 times total, and are not enough to maintain the original living standards of the land- expropriated farmers, the local people's government will make overall arrange- ments and allocate a certain percentage of the income from the paid use of state- owned land for subsidies . For the occupation of basic farmland approved ac- cording to law, the compensation for land acquisition shall be implemented ac- cording to the highest compensation standard announced by the local people's government.

(3) Formulation of comprehensive land prices in the requisitioned area. In areas where conditions permit, the provincial land and resources department may, in conjunction with relevant departments, formulate the comprehensive land price for each county (city) within the province, and report to the provincial people’s government for approval and then announce and implement it, and implement compensation for land acquisition.

13

(4) Distribution of land compensation fees. According to the principle that land compensation fees are mainly used for land-expropriated farmers, land compen- sation fees should be reasonably allocated within rural collective economic or- ganizations. The specific distribution method shall be formulated by the provincial government. If all the land is expropriated and the rural collective economic or- ganization cancels its establishment, the land compensation fees shall be used for the production and living resettlement of the farmers whose land has been expropriated.

2. Notice of the Hebei Provincial Government on Implementing Location-based Land Prices for Land Acquisition

To requisition collective land in accordance with the law, the land compensation fee shall be calculated by multiplying the area price of the requisitioned land by the area of the requisitioned land. The unused land in the mountainous area and the unused land on the dam shall be implemented at 60% of the land price of the requisitioned area. No unit or individual may raise or lower the land compensa- tion rate without authorization.

20% of the land compensation fee goes to the collective economic organization, and 80% to the land-use right holder of the expropriated land or the farmers who contract the land according to the household contract method; the land expropri- ated has no land-use right holder and the collective economic organization has not contracted out or contracted in other ways All land and land compensation fees belong to the collective economic organization, which is distributed or used by the village collective economic organization in accordance with the law.
