Chinese tourists rank Australia as most desired destination

We are supporting local dairy giants Mengniu and Yili and our aim is for them to rank among the world's top 10 dairy companies. We expect the power installed capacity to hit 10 million kilowatts annually and the refined oil production capacity top 10 million tons.

In agriculture, the city will continue its efforts to develop large-scale vegetable farms, and boost its cattle and modern grass sectors.

A total of 965 new villages will undergo construction to the national new village standards, while a number of villages are required to get rid of poverty. We have an even bolder ambition, that means, even more profound changes for the city.

From 2013 to 2015, we will relocate residents from delapidated homes, upgrade the heating and water systems for the whole city, protect the ecological environment of the Daqing Mountain area and control the air quality, as well as accelerate the construction of water pipes and the railway network.

By 2017, the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Inner Mongolia autonomous region, we expect all the key projects including the railways, new airport and subways will be finished.

And in about 10 years, we expect the city's management level will undergo fundamental reform.

By 2018 as the fastest projection timetable, the city's east and south new towns will be completed and the city's urban development will reach a new high.

We hope it will take the lead in the region to boost all-round comprehensive development and realize the new type of urbanization advocated by the country's leaders.
