Migrants From Three Gorges Project Well Settled

China has succeeded in resettling 43,481 migrants from the Three Gorges Project so far this year, completing this year's migrant resettlement tasks, said an official from the Three Gorges Project Construction Committee Thursday.

Zhang Baoxin, vice director of the Resettlement Affairs Bureau of Three Gorges Project Construction Committee, said that the migrants have settled down in 11 coastal provinces including Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai.

Zhang said that the number of this year's resettled migrants accounts for 62 percent of the migrant total in the Chongqing Area of the Three Gorges Project.

China plans to resettle 70,000 migrants by 2002 and will allocate some two billion yuan (approximately 241.8 million US dollars) to the resettlement project.

Zhang said that the Chinese government fully respects migrants' decisions and has funded migrating families' site inspections of the target migration location. All the migrants filed an agreement on the resettlement arrangements before moving to the destination.

The official said that most of the migrants had been successfully resettled and become accustomed to the living and working conditions of their new dwelling regions. It is estimated that more people in the Three Gorges region will voluntarily move out of their former hometowns.
