Growth dream for city cluster

WUHAN: More than 1 trillion yuan will be poured into this capital city of central China's Hubei province and eight other smaller cities in the years running to 2020 for boosting the local economy and build a "resource-saving and environmentally friendly society".

According to a blueprint unveiled by the provincial government on Saturday, a total of 1.143 trillion yuan will be invested in 131 major projects in the nine cities, which were approved by the central government last December to be an experimental zone for resource-saving and environmentally friendly programs.

The other eight cities are Huangshi, Huanggang, Xiantao, Xianning, Tianmen, Qianjiang, Ezhou and Xiao'gan.
