The bustling port city of Zhangjiagang in Jiangsu Province
| Country: | China |
| Report: |
|
| The bustling port city of Zhangjiagang in Jiangsu Province, also in eastern China, gets the Habitat Scroll of Honour Award for setting a new trend in integrated urban-rural development and management through an initiative by the city's authorities to improve the quality of life for farmers and other residents in its hinterland. Zhangjiagang, just half an hour's drive from Shanghai along a new super-highway, is the first Chinese city to explore a system of reallocating urban and rural resources so that people living in town or the countryside can derive the maximum benefit. With a reputation for showing the way as one of China's cleaner and safer cities, its new shopping malls and high rise apartment blocks, in many ways symbolize the country's modernization. Notable is its modern state-of-the-art community resource centers, the hub of the city's new found harmony. |
