Assessment of Development Objective and Design, and of Quality at Entry During the winter of 2000/2001, Xinjiang had a series of snow disasters leading to snow depths of 0.5-lm in the plains and 1-2 m in the mountains, The snow cover lasted over four months. The temperature reached lows of minus 37 degrees Celsius (minus 35 degrees Fahrenheit). The areas also suffered from gale force winds. The snow, the cold, and the wind caused immense damage. Over 300 thousand herdsmen suffered, over 30 thousand animals died, about 5 million animals were hurt, 10 thousand animal sheds were destroyed or badly damaged, and 7-8 thousand houses were destroyed or damaged. 3.1 Original Objective: The objective of the project was to assist the Borrower in restoring social and economic infrastructure critical to the lives of herders devastated by this unusually severe snowstorm in hard hit areas of Altai Prefecture and Tacheng Prefecture of Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR), and in enhancing and strengthening the disaster response capacity of the affected herders. This objective reflected Bank policy for emergency recovery assistance, i.e. to restore assets and production levels in the disrupted economy through the financing of investment and productive activities, rather than relief or consumption. By targeting the project towards a very poor part of the society in remote pastoral areas it contributed to four of the five major themes of the 1997 Bank’s Country Assistance Strategy CAS for China (infrastructure; human development including poverty alleviation; agriculture and rural development; and, environmental protection) and two out of the three major themes of the 2003 CAS (addressing the needs of the poorer and disadvantaged people in lagging regions; and, facilitating an environmentally sustainable development process). Finally, the project was responsive to the Borrower’s need in a situation of a natural disaster that seriously dislocated the local economy and called for a quick response. In line with best practice for emergency operation, the project objective was clear and realistic. 3.2 Revised Objective: The original objective of the project remained unchanged. 3.3 Original Components: The livelihood of the herder families in Altai Prefecture and Tacheng Prefecture of XUAR is almost always entirely dependent on livestock (sheep, goats, cattle, horses, camels, and other livestock). With large numbers of animals dying, the livelihood of these families was severely impacted. The ability to rebuild this livelihood and protect it more efficiently from future disasters largely depended on animal housing and feeding. Therefore, the key emphasis of the project was to assist herders in rebuilding damaged or destroyed sheds and establishing a reliable winter fodder base. In addition, a component on technical assistance and project management was designed in order to contribute to an improved management of the livestock and grassland resources in the region, and to ensure effective pro; ect management, including evaluation and monitoring. The project had the following components: (1) Restoration and Rehabilitation of Livestock Sheds (Altai: US $1.83 million - 42.7 percent of total: Tacheng: US $1.59 million - 49.7 percent of total). This component addressed one of the two most critical needs of the beneficiary population by financing investments for housing of their animals. It was planned that about US $ 3.42 million would be invested in the rehabilitation of about 212,500 sqm of sheds (2,125 units), restoration of 150,000 sqm of sheds (1,498 units), pasture rehabilitation of about 60,000 mu (4,000 ha), and pasture improvement of 110,000 mu (over 7,000 ha). The project planned to promote the improved “greenhouse” design permitting greater retention of heat. For all beneficiaries investing into the reconstruction of sheds technical 2 training was made compulsory in order to improve the economically and environmentally sustainable use of these major investments for the herders. (2) Housing Restoration (Altai: US $0.56 million - 13.2% of total:). Restoration of houses was planned for Altai Prefecture where a considerable number of families suffered severe house damages or even the total collapse of their houses and where grant fund sources from the Government or donations were insufficient. The average size of a house planned under the project was 80 square meters. Assuming average costs of houses between RMB 11,400 for mud-brick construction and RMB 14,700 for fired-brick construction the restoration of about 300 houses was planned under the project. (3) Pasture Rehabilitation (Altai: US $1.70 million - 39.6% of total: Tacheng: US $1.54 million - 48.1% of total)). This component addressed the other of the two most critical needs of the beneficiary population: improved winter forage security. The component plan included 62,750 mu (Altai: 38,900 mu; Tacheng: 23,850 mu) of sown (artificial) pasture, a 110,400 mu (Altai: 7,000 mu; Tacheng: 103,400 mu) of grassland rehabilitation activity, and the provision of forage handling equipment including small tractors, and forage storage facilities (including 1,668

  • 2020 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2020 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), states that citizens “enjoy freedom of religious belief” but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” without defining “normal.” CCP members and members of the armed forces are required to be atheists and are forbidden from engaging in religious practices. National law prohibits organizations or individuals from interfering with the state educational system for minors younger than the age of 18, effectively barring them from participating in most religious activities or receiving religious education. Some provinces have additional laws on minors’ participation in religious activities. The government continued to assert control over religion and restrict the activities and personal freedom of religious adherents that it perceived as threatening state or CCP interests, according to religious groups, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and international media reports. The government recognizes five official religions: Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism. Only religious groups belonging to one of the five state-sanctioned “patriotic religious associations” representing these religions are permitted to register with the government and officially permitted to hold worship services. There continued to be reports of deaths in custody and that the government tortured, physically abused, arrested, detained, sentenced to prison, subjected to forced indoctrination in CCP ideology, or harassed adherents of both registered and unregistered religious groups for activities related to their religious beliefs and practices.

Frontier Politics And Sino-Soviet Relations: A Study Of Northwestern Xinjiang, 1949-1963 Abstract This is an ethnopolitical and diplomatic study of the Three Districts, or the former East Turkestan Republic, in China’s northwest frontier in the 1950s and 1960s. It describes how this Muslim borderland between Central Asia and China became today’s Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture under the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. The Three Districts had been in the Soviet sphere of influence since the 1930s and remained so even after the Chinese Communist takeover in October 1949. After the Sino- Soviet split in the late 1950s, Beijing transformed a fragile suzerainty into full sovereignty over this region: the transitional population in Xinjiang was demarcated, border defenses were established, and Soviet consulates were forced to withdraw. As a result, the Three Districts changed from a Soviet frontier to a Chinese one, and Xinjiang’s outward focus moved from Soviet Central Asia to China proper. The largely peaceful integration of Xinjiang into PRC China stands in stark contrast to what occurred in Outer Mongolia and Tibet.
