Full List of Loan Assurances LOAN AND PROJECT SUMMARY Borrower People’s Republic of China (PRC) Classification Targeting Classification: Targeted intervention Sector: Water supply, sanitation, and waste management Subsector: Integrated Themes: Inclusive social development, environmental sustainability, sustainable economic growth Subthemes: Human development, urban environmental improvement, fostering physical infrastructure development Environment Category A. A summary of the environmental impact assessment was Assessment circulated to the Board of Directors of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) along with two environmental management plans on 11 July 2008, and uploaded to the ADB website on 11 July 2008. Project The Project is a key urban environmental improvement initiative of the Jilin Description provincial government (JPG), and the Heilongjiang provincial government (HPG) to control pollution in the Songhua River Basin (SRB). It is classified as a targeted intervention because it contributes to achieving Millennium Development Goal 7, Target 10, which calls for the halving of the proportion of people without access to safe drinking water and improved sanitation by 2015. The Project will help to (i) reduce water pollution, (ii) protect water resources, (iii) address water shortages (by recycling effluent) and meet the demand for high-quality treated water through 2015, (iv) control nonpoint source pollution through effective solid waste management (SWM), (v) promote sustainable economic development, and (vi) improve the environment and living conditions in the project counties and cities (see footnotes 9 and 10 in the main text) in Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces. The Project has three components, five subcomponents, and 20 activities. The components are (i) an improved and expanded water supply and wastewater services in 11 counties and cities in Heilongjiang province; (ii) improved and expanded wastewater facilities and SWM in 15 counties and cities in Jilin province; and (iii) capacity development and training on project management, institutional and SWM and wastewater management, and tariff reform for all the project implementing agencies (IAs). The Project supports the Government’s 11th Five Year Plan (FYP) which includes the goals of improving living conditions and health in cities and promoting sustainable economic development. It also supports the Songhua River Basin Water Pollution Prevention and Control Master Plan (SRBPCMP), which calls for improving water quality in the SRB from the current class IV, V and below V to class III by 2020. The proposed Project catalyzes both government and private investments aimed at reducing pollution in the SRB. The ADB East Asia Department (EARD) and the Private Sector Operations Department (PSOD) are adopting a public–private partnership approach to address the large wastewater treatment funding needs of Heilongjiang Province. PSOD is preparing a project for the Tsinghua Tongfang Water Engineering Company Limited (TTWE) which is currently managing the largest wastewater ii treatment plant in Harbin. The PSOD project would support TTWE through the provision of equity of $12 million, or 20% of equity capital, whichever is lower, and loans for the management of wastewater treatment plants in other cities in Heilongjiang. TTWE is focusing on the water and wastewater sector business and is exploring private–public participation (PPP) opportunities with the local governments. Through an equity investment of $3.4 million, TTWE is a minority shareholder in the Qitaihe City Central wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and effluent reuse subproject included in the proposed Project. This subproject will be financed by the ADB loan, local government counterpart funds, and private sector funds. The TTWE investment would (i) solve the funding shortage at Qitaihe, and (ii) improve the management and operational efficiency at Qitaihe through training provided by TTWE. This pilot demonstration subproject could be replicated in other subprojects in Heilongjiang, and then in Jilin province. The proposed Project would significantly increase the wastewater treatment capacity in medium-sized and small cities and counties in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces. ADB is also conducting a study on nonsovereign lending in urban infrastructure development in the PRC. The public–private sector approach to the wastewater treatment sector could be replicated in Jilin province and elsewhere in the PRC. HPG and JPG plan to invest $1.655 billion to increase wastewater treatment capacity and reduce pollution in the Songhua River in the 11th FYP. The proposed Project accounts for 23% of this effort, demonstrating its strong catalytic impact in mobilizing resources aimed at SRB pollution control. Rationale The project counties and cities of Heilongjiang province (with an urban population of 7.04 million) and Jilin province (an urban population of 2.90 million) are located along the SRB. The SRB is the third largest river basin in the PRC, and it covers sections of Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces and the autonomous region of Inner Mongolia. The Songhua River is severely polluted with organic chemicals, heavy metals, and conventional pollutants, and this constrains sustainable economic development in the region. Underdevelopment of wastewater collection and treatment in the project counties and cities in Heilongjiang province and Jilin province leads to untreated wastewater being discharged into local rivers, and eventually to the pollution of the SRB. Water quality in some sections of the Songhua River and its tributaries does not meet class V of the PRC Surface Water Quality Standard. The lack of adequate

  • Educated Youth Should Go to the Rural Areas: a Tale of Education, Employment and Social Values*
    Educated Youth Should Go to the Rural Areas: A Tale of Education, Employment and Social Values* Yang You† Harvard University This draft: July 2018 Abstract I use a quasi-random urban-dweller allocation in rural areas during Mao’s Mass Rustication Movement to identify human capital externalities in education, employment, and social values. First, rural residents acquired an additional 0.1-0.2 years of education from a 1% increase in the density of sent-down youth measured by the number of sent-down youth in 1969 over the population size in 1982. Second, as economic outcomes, people educated during the rustication period suffered from less non-agricultural employment in 1990. Conversely, in 2000, they enjoyed increased hiring in all non-agricultural occupations and lower unemployment. Third, sent-down youth changed the social values of rural residents who reported higher levels of trust, enhanced subjective well-being, altered trust from traditional Chinese medicine to Western medicine, and shifted job attitudes from objective cognitive assessments to affective job satisfaction. To explore the mechanism, I document that sent-down youth served as rural teachers with two new county-level datasets.

Abstract. The highly correlation between the development and resources incurs the serious problems of employment during the economic transition, such as greater re-employment population, lower elasticity of employment, greater unemployed workers in coal industry. These problems not only hinder the social stability, but also slow the economic transition and industries updating process. We hope to push forward the economic transition of resource-based cities and therefore solve the employment problems through the following measures: developing specific modern agriculture and modern service industry, encouraging and supporting entrepreneurships, implementing re-employment trainings, strengthening the public services systems for SMEs etc. Background According to the latest statistics from the State Council for 2013, there exists 239 resource-based cities in China, including 31 growing resource-based cities, 141 mature, and 67 exhausted. In the process of economic reform, resource-based cities face a series of development challenges. In December 2007, the State Council issued the Opinions on Promoting the Sustainable Development of Resource-Based Cities. The National Development and Reform Commission identified 44 resource-exhausted cities from March 2008 to March 2009, supporting them with capital, financial policy and financial transfer payment funds. In the year of 2011, the National Twelfth Five-Year Plan proposed to promote the transformation and development of resource-exhausted area.

    2017 3rd International Conference on Education and Social Development (ICESD 2017) ISBN: 978-1-60595-444-8 Optimization Path of the Freight Channel of Heilongjiang Province to Russia 1,a,* 2,b Jin-Ping ZHANG , Jia-Yi YUAN 1Harbin University of Commerce, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China 2International Department of Harbin No.9 High School, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China [email protected], [email protected] * Corresponding author Keywords: Heilongjiang Province, Russia, Freight Channel, Optimization Path. Abstract. Heilongjiang Province becomes the most important province for China's import and export trade to Russia due to its unique geographical advantages and strong complementary between industry and product structure. However, the existing problems in the trade freight channel layout and traffic capacity restrict the bilateral trade scale expansion and trade efficiency improvement. Therefore, the government should engage in rational distribution of cross-border trade channel, strengthen infrastructure construction in the border port cities and node cities, and improve the software support and the quality of service on the basis of full communication and coordination with the relevant Russian government, which may contribute to upgrade bilateral economic and trade cooperation. Introduction Heilongjiang Province is irreplaceable in China's trade with Russia because of its geographical advantages, a long history of economic and trade cooperation, and complementary in industry and product structures. Its total value of import and export trade to Russia account for more than 2/3 of the whole provinces and nearly 1/4 of that of China. After years of efforts, there exist both improvement in channel infrastructure, layout and docking and problems in channel size, functional positioning and layout, as well as important node construction which do not match with cross-border freight development.

The region is the grain production and ecological security base of China where the fertile and productive Mollisols are distributed. Though the region was agriculturally developed relatively recently, it went through high intensity cultivation and fast succession processes within short-time scales. Coupled with irrational farming practice choice and land use, hillslope erosion and gully erosion are seriously threatening agricultural production and environmental stability in the region. The awareness of gully erosion by the local governments started in the 1970s, and conservation measures were thus implemented. In this paper, based on our survey, communications with local farmers and stakeholders as well as investigation for gully erosion for the past three years, we summarize the practical and efficient practices to manage gully erosion developed by researchers and farmers in Northeast China during the past 50 years. These practices include various drop structures, soil check dams, masonry check dams, gabion check dams, wicker check dams, continuous live wicker, a shrub plant enclosure, and an arbor plant enclosure.

  • Japanese Rule Over Rural Manchukuo: Strategies and Policies
    JAPANESE RULE OVER RURAL MANCHUKUO: STRATEGIES AND POLICIES A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY MO TIAN September 2015 DECLARATION I, Mo Tian, declare that, except where otherwise acknowledged or noted, this thesis is entirely my own work. Mo Tian iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study is the outcome of a frustrating intellectual trajectory. It started as an enquiry into the political ideology of Manchukuo, but later on switched its direction to the examination of the political institutions of Manchukuo, and finally landed on the area of Japanese rule over rural Manchukuo. On the path towards completing this thesis, I have incurred debts to many individuals and institutions. This thesis would have never been possible without their assistance and support. First, I would like to thank my family for carrying me through this PhD journey. I dedicate this thesis to my mother Huang Wei. Her unceasing love has supported me in various ways. I dedicate this thesis to my father Tian Shubin who died prematurely in 2001. He was a great father who taught me to pursue excellence and to become a man of integrity. I dedicate this thesis to my grandfather Huang Kexuan who grew up in Manchuria under the Japanese rule. In my early childhood, he strongly cultivated my genuine interest in Japan. His stories of the various aspects of the Japanese rule in Manchuria are the sources of inspiration for my work on Manchuria. My mentors and colleagues in Australia have greatly facilitated the process of my writing. The three members of my examination panel have been tremendously helpful for my thesis writing.

We combine the gray correlation analysis and multiple linear regression models to quantitatively predict water supply and demand in different planning years, which provide the basis for quantitative analysis of the WRCC. The selection of research indicators also considers the interaction of social economy, water resources, and water environment. Combined with the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method, the gray corre- lation analysis and multiple linear regression models to quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate the WRCC under different social development plans.
