Germany Finances Forest Project in East China

The German government has agreed to provide 12 million Deutsche marks (approximately 7.5 million U.S. dollars) in aid for a shelter forest project in east China's Anhui Province.

According to an agreement singed here last weekend, the funds will be spent on planting trees along the Yangtze, China's longest river.

The agreement is only part of a massive aid program initiated in 1996 by the German government, which aims to improve the ecological environment along the Chinese river.

Since 1996, Germany has already given 12 million Deutsche marks in gratis assistance to Anhui.

With the aid, local people planted trees on 31,103 hectares of land, raising the forest coverage rate in the project zone by about 30 percent.
