Zhuhai Attracts Top Flight Aviation Players 22 Monday, November 5, 2018 CHINA DAILY What they say The AG600, a large amphibious aircraft developed by China, carries out its maiden flight in the Zhuhai Aviation Industrial Park in December I hope there will be more themed exhibitions 2017. PHOTOS PROVIDED TO CHINA DAILY on such areas as general aviation, drones and military-civilian integration. We are striving to make bigger breakthroughs in strategic emerging industries — including advanced manufacturing, new energy and new materials to help more key enterprises develop in the ZHUhaI attRactS TOP Zhuhai Aviation Industrial Park. Zhou Zuode, office director, executive committee of the China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition FLIght AVIatION PLayERS I witnessed the development of Jinwan Airport and the industrial park from the very beginning. At first, the park was a wasteland, and when we tried to give a tour around the park for our investors, we could not even find a path. Now, however, the land in the park has become a precious resource. Cai Wen, vice-general manager, Zhuhai Aviation City and Airport Group Flight simulators involve as many industries as plane manufacturing and software. The aviation industrial park boasts a cluster of related sectors, which provides rich resources for us to develop the simulators. U-Wing Aviation is developing fast, thanks to the favorable environment in the park. Xie Yan, founder and CEO, Guangdong U-Wing Aviation Technology Co There is a drone flying zone in the park, covering an area of 20 square kilometers, and it plays a vital role in the development of drone companies. It meets the needs required for drone research and development, manufacturing, maintenance and operational training.

Over 500 million Public Disclosure Authorized people were lifted out of poverty during this time (World Bank and Development Research Center of the State Council, 2013). Since the national law on compulsory education was passed in 1982, access to education has significantly improved. While the basic education cycle spans 15 years, a nine-year education cycle comprising primary and junior secondary school is compulsory for the nation’s children. The adult literacy rate has increased from 66 percent in 1982 to 96 percent in 2015. In addition to improvements in access, results from international student assessments – such as the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development’s (OECD) Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) – demonstrate that the country is home to some of the best performing school systems in the world (World Bank, 2016). This socioeconomic progress of the past 30 years has raised the well-being of the population. China has made large strides in human development in terms of increased average life expectancy, education, and average income.

But the place is more than just looks and proximity to Macau and Hong Kong. It’s one of China’s five Special Economic Zones and transportation and logistic hubs. It’s where the Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition is held and last year exhibited the Shenzhou 7 orbital module, famous for the first Chinese space walk. What’s more, Zhuhai is a market for U.S. agric ultural products in the retail sector and has links in the American swine sector. Its growth in the retail, restaurant and tourism sectors point to niche opportunities for U.S. agricultural products. This tiny, yet mighty city of 1.4 million is open for business.

  • Interaction and Social Complexity in Lingnan During the First Millennium B.C
    Interaction and Social Complexity in Lingnan during the First Millennium B.C. FRANCIS ALLARD SEPARATED FROM AREAS north of it by mountain ranges and drained by a single river system, the region of Lingnan in southeastern China is a distinct physio­ graphic province (Fig. 1). The home of historically recorded tribes, it was not until the late first millennium B.C. that Lingnan was incorporated into the ex­ panding Chinese polities of central and northern China. The Qin, Han, and probably the Chu before them not only knew of those they called barbarians in southeastern China but also pursued an expansionary policy that would help es­ tablish the boundaries of the modem Chinese state in later times. The first millennium B.C. in Lingnan witnessed the development of a bronze metallurgy and its subsequent widespread use by the seventh or sixth centuries B.C. Archaeological work over the last decades has led to the discovery of a num­ ber ofBronze Age burials scattered over much of northern Lingnan and dating to approximately 600 to 200 B.C., a period covering the middle-late Spring and Autumn period and all of the Warring States period (Fig. 2). These important discoveries have helped establish the region as the theater for the emergence of social complexity before the arrival of the Qin and Han dynasties in Lingnan. Nevertheless, and in keeping with traditional models of interpretation, Chinese archaeologists have tried to understand this material in the context of contact with those expanding states located to the north of Lingnan. The elaborate ma­ terial culture and complex political structures associated with these states has usually meant that change in those so-called peripheral areas (including Lingnan) could only be the result of cultural diffusion from the center.

Land subsidence can accelerate the increase in relative sea level, lead to a series of potential hazards, and threaten the stability of the ecological environment and human lives. In this paper, we adopted two commonly used multi-temporal interferometric synthetic aperture radar (MTInSAR) techniques, Small baseline subset (SBAS) and Temporarily coherent point (TCP) InSAR, to monitor the land subsidence along the entire coastline of Guangdong Province. The long-wavelength L-band ALOS/PALSAR-1 dataset collected from 2007 to 2011 is used to generate the average deformation velocity and deformation time series. Linear subsidence rates over 150 mm/yr are observed in the Chaoshan Plain.

Page 1/22 Abstract This study monitors the land subsidence of the whole Pearl River Delta (PRD) (area: ~40,000 km2) in China using the ALOS1/PALSAR data (2006-2011) through the SBAS-InSAR method. We also analyze the relationship between the subsidence and the coastline change, river distribution, geological structure as well as the local terrain. The results show that (1) the land subsidence with the average velocity of 50 mm/year occurred in the low elevation area in the front part of the delta and the coastal area, and the area of the regions subsiding fast than 30 mm/year between 2006 and 2011 is larger than 122 km2; (2) the subsidence order and area estimated in this study are both much larger than that measured in previous studies; (3) the areas along rivers suffered from surface subsidence, due to the thick soft soil layer and frequent human interference; (4) the geological evolution is the intrinsic factor of the surface subsidence in the PRD, but human interference (reclamation, ground water extraction and urban construction) extends the subsiding area and increases the subsiding rate.

  • Sites of Zou and Ma Migration in the Qing
    APPENDIX F Sites of Zou and Ma Migration in the Qing The information on Zou and Ma migration is drawn from the generational charts of the three primary genealogies, the MSDZZP (1945), FYZSZP (1947), and MTLZXZSZP (1911). Since precise dates of migration are given only very rarely, I have estimated the probable time of migration from the birth and death dates given. “Zou1” refers to the upper-shrine Zou lineage; “Zou2” to the lower-shrine.

In February 29, 2016, they finished the Social Assessment report of the bundled projects in 16 counties (cities/districts) of weak compulsory education(Hereinafter referred to as “Report”). Based on field investigation and data analysis, the social assessment group draws the conclusion that separate Ethnic Minority Development Plan is not necessary, thus the report mainly focuses on the analysis of the overall social impact of the project. Proposed project activities include 4 main components, which are the school reorganization and expansion project, special groups education guarantee project, the quality education resources sharing project, teacher’s development and guarantee project. Those main components also include 9 sub-projects. The project involves 16 counties (cities/districts) of Guangdong Province, namely Chaoyang District, Wengyuan County, Wuhua County, Haifeng County, Lufeng City, Suixi County, Lianjiang City, Leizhou City, Wuchuan City, Dianbai District, Huazhou City, Chao’an District, Huilai County, Puning City, Jiexi County, and Luoding City.
