Overview 1 In September 2012, ADB approved the Integrated Development of Key Townships in Central Liaoning (the Project) with a loan of $150 million. The Project Agreement and Loan Agreement were signed in January 2013 and the loan became effective in March 2013. The loan has a 26-year term, including a 5-year grace period. The Project includes 4 components, a) wastewater management improvements; b) Fuxin (Sihe town) district heating network; c) environmentally sustainable urban infrastructure development; and d) capacity development and institutional strengthening. 2 The Shenbei Wastewater Management Improvements and Urban Roads Subproject is part of the Project. The Shenbei Subproject originally included the construction and rehabilitation of roads (and associated facilities) in Qingshuitai and Xinlongtai townships, and the construction of a 10,000 m3 per day wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Qingshuitai Township. Two contracts, municipal maintenance equipment (SD-E01) and the civil works contract SD-C05, in the original component, have been kept, and some of the civil works initially to be funded under the Subproject in Xinglongtai and Qingshuitai townships have been completed already with local funds. To utilize the remaining ADB loan originally allocated, the IA requests ADB to use the loan allocation to rehabilitate roads in Xinchengzi town and expand this town’s wastewater treatment capacity by 25,000 m3 per day by expanding the existing WWTP with improvement of the sewage collection system. The total investment of the new Subproject is CNY265 million, including the remaining ADB loans

  • Singapore-Liaoning Economic and Trade Council Identifies Opportunities in Services Sector in Liaoning As Cities Expand
    M E D I A RELEASE Singapore-Liaoning Economic and Trade Council identifies opportunities in services sector in Liaoning as cities expand IE Singapore facilitates Crestar Education’s S$1 million investment in Shenyang; Pacific International Lines to open a ship repair and recycling yard JV project on Changxing Island MR No.: 012/12 Singapore, Monday, 23 April 2012 1. The coastal province of Liaoning grew at a GDP of 12.1% and attracted US$24.2 billion worth of investments in 2011, making it the province with the second highest FDI in China. The key cities of Shenyang and Dalian are expanding their urban areas to boost growth, creating opportunities for Singapore-based companies in the services sectors. 2. Mr Gan Kim Yong, Minister for Health, is now in Liaoning with 65 Singapore-based companies. This business mission follows the 6th Singapore-Liaoning Economic and Trade Council (SLETC) meeting held in Singapore last September. Minister Gan and Liaoning Governor Chen Zhenggao are the Co-Chairmen of the Council, with IE Singapore as the Singapore secretariat. 3. Said Minister Gan, “Liaoning is an attractive investment location due to several factors. First, it plays a key role in the Central government‟s plans to revitalise the Northeast region; second, it is geographically close to key economies like Korea and Japan, serving as China‟s gateway to Northeast Asia; third, it has relatively lower operational costs. Coupled with these advantages, cities like Shenyang and Dalian are growing their urban areas to boost growth. This creates new opportunities for our companies in services, including urban solutions, transport and logistics, and even consumer-related areas like pre-school education.” International Enterprise Singapore is the lead government agency driving Singapore’s external economy.

  • Study of the School–Residence Spatial Relationship and the Characteristics of Travel-To-School Distance in Shenyang
    sustainability Article Study of the School–Residence Spatial Relationship and the Characteristics of Travel-to-School Distance in Shenyang Dawei Mei 1, Chunliang Xiu 2,*, Xinghua Feng 1 and Ye Wei 1 1 School of Geographical Sciences, Northeast Normal University, Changchun 130024, Jilin, China 2 College of Jang Ho Architecture, Northeastern University, Shenyang 110169, Liaoning, China * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-189-4318-9011 Received: 17 July 2019; Accepted: 13 August 2019; Published: 16 August 2019 Abstract: The school–residence spatial relationship is a key factor in understanding urban spatial structure and travel-to-school behavior of students. Analyzing the change law and the spatial characteristics of travel-to-school distance can provide a basis for improved accessibility of urban educational facilities and enable enrolment of students from the neighborhood. Based on one complete month of mobile phone signaling data for May 2018, the changes in student density with the travel-to-school distance was analyzed using MATLAB and Mann–Kendall Trend Test, and the pattern and the spatial structure of travel-to-school were explored. The results revealed that: (1) With increase in travel-to-school distance, the student density showed a decrease in truncated power law distribution, and it is concentrated within the travel-to-school distance of 5.0 km; (2) According to the sudden change points of the student density growth rate, the threshold distance for travel to kindergartens is 1.30 km, and for primary schools and secondary schools is 1.50 km. The school–residence spatial structure is divided according to the threshold of travel-to-school distance and the scope of attendance; (3) The dominant flow of travel-to-school is generally from urban peripheral and marginal areas to the urban core area, and partly from marginal areas to peripheral areas; (4) The pattern of travel-to-school is polycentric, and the study centers are mainly located in the urban central district north of the Hun River.
