  • PRC: Jiangsu Yancheng Wetlands Protection Project
    Jiangsu Yancheng Wetlands Protection Project (RRP PRC 40685) DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION A. Major Development Partners: Strategic Foci and Key Activities 1. The coastal province of Jiangsu is a relatively well-to-do. Compared with the poorer western provinces that are covered by the Western Development Strategy, Jiangsu is not a priority for national and international development assistance. There are, however, three ongoing lending projects, including two from the World Bank and one from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), on water and sanitation. The World Bank-financed Jiangsu Water and Wastewater Project covers Yancheng, but it is limited to water supply. Although closed in 2008, the Wetland Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Use in China Project, funded by the United Nations Development Programme and the Global Environment Facility, merits mention as it included the Yancheng coastal wetlands as one of its four project sites in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The evaluation report rated the project generally satisfactory, but it was suspended in 2002, 3 years after commencement in 1999, for not achieving the expected results. It was subsequently redesigned and relaunched in 2005 and finally completed in 2008. The causes of the failure of phase 1 of that project included poor original design, management deficiencies, a narrow institutional focus in the executing agency that failed to tackle the underlying causes of loss of wetland function, and a flawed approach to subcontracting.1 Table 1: Major Development Partners Development Amount Partner Project Name Duration ($ million) Sector: Water and Sanitation ADB loan Nanjing Qinhuai River Environmental Improvement Project 2007–2012 100.0 World Bank Jiangsu Wuxi Lake Tai Environment Project Programmed 150.0 Jiangsu Water and Wastewater Project 2009–2014 100.0 Sector: Biodiversity Protection GEF–UNDP Wetland Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Use in China 1999–2008 5.3 ADB = Asian Development Bank, GEF = Global Environment Facility, UNDP = United Nations Development Programme.

In order to solve this problem, it is very necessary to study the allocation of FDR among various regions in the watershed. Firstly, this paper takes fairness, efficiency and sustainable development as the allocation principles, and comprehensively considers the differences of natural factors, social development factors, economic development factors and ecological environment factors in various regions. Then, an indicator system for allocation of FDR among regions in the watershed is established. Secondly, an entropy weight Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) model is used to construct the FDR allocation model among regions in the watershed. Based on a harmony evaluation model, a harmony evaluation and comparison are carried out on the FDR allocation schemes under three different allocation principles.

Through the experience of Jiangsu Province in China, this study establishes a coupling coordination evaluation index system and applies the coupling coordination model to evaluate interactive relationships among the three. It finds that during 2007–2017, the level of coupling of 13 prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu was increasing over time, which fully verified the previous scholars’ view that the three can improve each other over a long period. However, this study finds that there are obvious differences within Jiangsu. Inadequate investment in higher education has become a crucial constraint on sustainable economic growth in northern and central Jiangsu, which are backward regions of Jiangsu. By contrast, in southern Jiangsu, which is the advanced region of Jiangsu, although the resources of higher education are abundant the growth of innovation ability cannot support sustained economic growth well. Thus, the quality of higher education should be improved to meet the needs of the innovation-based economy.
