    Quake reconstruction makes fast progress

    Qiang Wei, Party chief of Qinghai, also said the province will fulfill its plans to rebuild residences in urban places, as well as roads, power equipment and other infrastructures in Yushu by the end of 2011.The province has finished plans and preliminary designs for 466 projects this year. From June to the end of 2010, Qinghai spent 5 billion yuan and completed 298 reconstruction projects. Qiang said the province's reconstruction and economic development plan will place a great priority on protecting the environment.
    $3.1b earmarked in 2010

    China's Finance Minister Xie Xuren said in 2010 that China will commit 21 billion yuan ($3.1 billion) within three years for reconstruction work in quake-hit Yushu, Qinghai province, a northwest Chinese region with a predominantly Tibetan population.The $3.1b includes 9 billion yuan for 2010, 10 billion yuan for 2011 and 2 billion yuan for 2012, said Xie.
    $3 billion added in 2011

    China's government plans to spend 20 billion yuan ($3 billion) in 2011, about four times the amount last year, said Luo Huining, governor of Qinghai province.
    The money would mainly go to the building of urban homes, public service facilities and infrastructure in the Tibetan autonomous county of Yushu.
    Tourism city

    Yushu is at the headwaters of three major Chinese rivers, and the place is also referred to as "Sanjiangyuan" in Chinese, which means "the source of three rivers."

    "We rename Yushu county as Sanjiangyuan city with a view to highlighting the area's strategic geological significance of being the source of three rivers...We will strive to build Gyegu town into a commerce and logistics center and a tourist city featuring ethnic traditional Tibetan culture and ecological preservation," said Wang Yuhu, head of the Yushu prefectural government.
    Monthly subsidy for orphans

    China Life Foundation agreed on Feb 28, 2011 to provide 600 yuan ($91.3) per month to each of the 459 children orphaned by?Yushu?earthquake and a mudslide last year, both in northwest China.

    The charity program will finance these children until they are 18 years old or adopted. The funds will be given to the ministry annually and then sent to children. In addition to basic life support, the program will also include psychological counselling and vocational education to the children.
