In order to alleviate poverty and backwardness, a plan was worked out: to remove 200,000 people to the north plain by developing newly irrigated land during the period of 1983-1992. The plan has been in operation for eight and half years to date. About 200,000 people have been removed from the poor southern part to the newly developed area, and 800,000 mu (1/ 15 ha) of desert land has been cultivated. Most of the migrants have been lifted out of poverty and the people’s life in the south is being improved. During the immigration process, a model, called 'Suspending Village', has been developed. In the article, the whole process of the development and the strategies are discussed.展开更多

We should tap the local resources,stimulate the internal motivation of the village,emphasize the villagers as the main body,leading the village development-oriented renovation planning and design. With regard to the construction of " endogenous development" system,this paper discusses it from five perspectives: ecology,economy,culture,space and society. And combined with the planning and design practice of Zengjia Village,Guangchang County,Fuzhou City,we carry out renovation planning and design of the village from six aspects( " personal in-home interview" for current situation investigation; village spatial control and development planning; guidance for the dominant and diversified development of industry; the actual space environment renovation suitable for the village; continuation of the traditional culture to enhance the village look; enhancement of the participation of villagers in the whole process). It is pointed out that village renovation should not only stay in the improvement of the material environment,but also place greater emphasis on guiding the subjective initiative of the villagers,stimulate the endogenous power of the village,strengthen and guide the villagers' self-governance,and promote the sustainable development of village construction.展开更多
