THE year 2006 sees the launch of the Chinese government's campaign to "build a new socialist countryside." After more than 20 years of reform and opening-up, the focus is now on China's huge rural population. The government acknowledges that China's economic and social progress can be of benefit to the entire population only after development of the rural economy, construction of new homes for farmers and a general upgrading of living standards have been accomplished. Domestic demand may then steadily expand and sustained development of the national economy be promoted.
