The conference determined that a new pattern of urbanization with Chinese characteristics should be actively and steadily promoted. This approach will haveat its core the principle of being human- oriented. Based on the "four moderniza- tions" - industrialization, informatization, urbanization and agricultural moderniza- tion - urbanization would embrace a sci- entific layout, green development, and the country's cultural heritage.
