Therefore, a reasonable distribution of logistics center. Then by listing and comparing nine kinds center location is very important. And once selected, it of logistics center site selection method, including Analytic will be a long operation, which is not only related to Hierarchy Process, Cluster Algorithm, Genetic Algorithm, operating costs but also directly related to the level of Weight Grade Method, P-Median Method, System [1] Simulation Method, Fuzzy quality function method, logistics efficiency . Dijkstra Method, we chose the best site selection method, The logistics center of Jilin province is a magnificent namely the center of gravity method. Finally, this paper logistics infrastructure, which has a big impact on social found out the exact logistics center location of Jilin Province economy. Reasonable site selection of logistics center can with the center of gravity method. save costs effectively and guarantee the balance development of logistics system as well as reduce traffic Index Terms—center of gravity method, logistics, logistics congestions that appeared in many cities, so as to reduce center, principles, site selection, steps the pollution to the environment. Thus, it will definitely promote the sustainable development of Jilin province. I. INTRODUCTION With the acceleration of the planning for logistics center Logistics center occupies an important position in the in Jilin Province, a reasonable plan for the site selection logistics system, which plays a linking role. The upstream of logistics center is an important topic. of logistics are the supply factories, and downstream are users. Modern logistics center plays an important part in the circulation community, and it is the support of the II.

Logistics and Logistics Center infrastructure of the whole society. The transit and Originally, logistics is a military term, first used in the distribution function of modern logistics center can Napoleonic era, which was defined as” the art of moving enlarge the functions of logistics infrastructure, and armies and keeping them supplied”. The term has become effectively reduce logistics costs, improve the logistics popular since the Gulf War of 1991; particularly since the situation, so as to improve logistics efficiency. In a sense, publication in November, 1992 of an interview with the lack of modern logistics center will inevitably lead to William Pagonis, the general who had been in charge of the waste of resources of regional infrastructure and other logistics in that war. William Pagonis defines it as: circulation elements. In other words, if the modern “the integration of transportation, supply, warehousing, logistics center is not perfect, the infrastructure function maintenance, procurement, contracting and automation will be seriously affected. into a single function that ensures no sub optimization in Site selection of logistics center means that in the any of those areas, to allow the overall accomplishment economic areas where contain a number of supply points of a particular strategy, objective, or mission.” and demand points, choosing a good place to set up a Later, in business field, a commonly used definition logistics center planning process.

  • Issues and Challenges of Governance in Chinese Urban Regions

City-regions pose new challenges to governance. They transcend multiple local jurisdictions and often involve higher level governments. This paper aims to provide an improved un- derstanding of city-regional governance in China, focusing on three contrasting examples (the Yangtze River Delta Metropolitan Region, the Beijing- Tianjin-Hebei Metropolitan Region, and the Guanzhong- Tianshui Metropolitan Region). We show that, in spite of a strong vertical dimension of city-regional governance in China, the role and interference of the Central Government in matters of metropolitan policy-making is variable.

  • 2019 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2019 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution, which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and the guidance of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, states that citizens have freedom of religious belief but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” and does not define “normal.” Despite Chairman Xi Jinping’s decree that all members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) must be “unyielding Marxist atheists,” the government continued to exercise 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 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. There were several reports of individuals committing suicide in detention, or, according to sources, as a result of being threatened and surveilled. In December Pastor Wang Yi was tried in secret and sentenced to nine years in prison by a court in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, in connection to his peaceful advocacy for religious freedom.

  • The Guo Boxiong Edition James Mulvenon
    So Crooked They Have to Screw Their Pants On Part 3: The Guo Boxiong Edition James Mulvenon On 30 July, the Central Committee announced that General Guo Boxiong, who served as vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission between 2002 and 2012, was expelled from the Chinese Communist Party and handed over to prosecutors for accepting bribes “on his own and through his family . for aiding in the promotion [of officers].” Guo’s expulsion comes one year after similar charges against his fellow CMC vice-chair Xu Caihou, who died of bladder cancer in March 2015. This article examines the charges against Guo, places them in the context of the larger anti-corruption campaign within the PLA, and assesses their implications for Xi Jinping’s relationship with the military and for party-army relations.

With the continuous improvement of China's urbanization level, the huge expansion of construction land has a negative impact on urban air quality, especially PM2.5 pollution. In this paper, the relationship between the landscape pattern of urban construction land and PM2.5 concentration is studied by using spatial exploratory analysis (Moran I) and spatial econometric analysis (SLM/SEM). The results show that: ① From 2000 to 2016, PM2.5 pollution in the region of Pearl River Delta rose first and then dropped; In terms of spatial distribution, it showed a trend of high in the middle and low in the peripheral areas. ② The construction land in Pearl River Delta expanded obviously from 2000 to 2016, with the overall increase as high as 75.37%. At the same time, the advantages, integrity and accumulation of construction land patches in Pearl River Delta were strengthened continuously, while the degree of size breakage dropped to some extent.
