BEIJING, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) — The gross regional product of China's Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) has more than doubled in the past decade, the National Development and Reform Commission said Monday.
Wang Changlin, deputy head of the committee, noted at a press conference that over 10 years, the share of YREB in China's GDP has grown from 42.2 percent to 47.3 percent.
At the same time, the share of reservoirs with excellent and good water quality has increased to 96.5 percent in the YREB territory, compared to 67 percent ten years ago, he added.
The Yangtze River is China's longest waterway, stretching over 6,300 kilometers. It flows through 11 provincial-level regions and empties into the East China Sea. The Yangtze River basin is home to many economically powerful regions, megacities, and major rice-producing areas.
