China nuclear power "goes out" and the third Pakistani nuclear power plant is successfully connected to the grid.

[Observer Network Synthesis] According to The Paper’s report on October 16th, at 16: 35 local time in Pakistan on October 15th, 2016, the third nuclear power plant exported by China National Nuclear Power Group on the Belt and Road Initiative, Unit 3 of Chashma Nuclear Power, was officially connected to the grid, which became the third nuclear power plant in Pakistan. Units 1 and 2 of Chashma Nuclear Power were put into operation in 2000 and 2011 respectively.

According to the official news of CNNC, the No.3 and No.4 units of Chashma Nuclear Power Plant are a friendship project to implement China’s "One Belt, One Road" initiative, deepen China-Pakistan all-weather strategic partnership and witness the brotherhood between the two peoples. The power of the units is 340,000 kilowatts, and CNNC China Zhongyuan Foreign Engineering Co., Ltd. is responsible for the general contracting construction.

"Long live China-Pakistan friendship!" According to CNNC, Li Xiaoming, assistant general manager of CNNC, and Joseph, member of the Nuclear Power Committee of Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (the Committee), who witnessed this historical moment, applauded at the moment of successful grid connection.

Pakistan’s third nuclear power plant was successfully connected to the grid.

Over the years, China has played an important role in the construction of Pakistani nuclear power market. Pakistan’s Chashma nuclear power project is the first commercial nuclear power plant designed and built by China, which is praised by both China and Pakistan as a model of "South-South cooperation". Among them, Chashma No.1 and No.2 300,000 kW PWR nuclear power units were put into commercial operation in 2000 and 2011 respectively.

"Chashma nuclear power is a model of China-Pakistan cooperation for more than 20 years and will strongly promote China-Pakistan in-depth cooperation in many fields in the future." Li Xiaoming, assistant general manager of CNNC, said.

At the subsequent grid-connected ceremony, Li Xiaoming exchanged souvenirs with Pakistan on behalf of CNNC, and said that China and Pakistan are steadily advancing the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, and are committed to building a community of destiny between China and Pakistan. CNNC and Pakistan will deepen brotherhood, and Together Brothers will achieve fruitful results in the follow-up nuclear power projects and cooperation in other fields of nuclear energy.

Joseph, on behalf of the Pakistan Committee, shared the good news that C2 (Chashma Unit 2) power station has been running at full power for 266 consecutive days, creating the best record of Pakistan’s nuclear power operation, and expressed in Chinese that long live the friendship between China and Pakistan! He said that if we look at China-Pakistan friendship, we should look at Chashma nuclear power. After C3 (Unit 3) is successfully connected to the grid, it will provide Pakistan with a steady stream of electricity and bring light to the Pakistani people. We look forward to continuing to strengthen in-depth cooperation with CNNC.

At present, CNNC has exported four 300,000-kilowatt nuclear power units and two million-kilowatt nuclear power units to Pakistan, and is actively cooperating in the fields of uranium resources and personnel training. Unit 4 has entered the stage of comprehensive commissioning, and it is expected to be officially connected to the grid for power generation in the first half of 2017. By then, it will provide clean, efficient and safe electricity for Pakistan, which is short of electricity.

In addition to the Chashma project, in August last year, Unit 2 of Karachi Nuclear Power Project in Pakistan poured the first tank of concrete. Karachi No.2 nuclear power unit is the first overseas reactor of China’s independent third-generation nuclear power technology Hualong No.1, which means that Hualong No.1 has gone abroad for the first time and landed in Pakistan.

Karachi nuclear power project (K2, K3) is the largest nuclear power project in Pakistan at present, and its site is located near Karachi, Pakistan, along the Arabian Sea, about 900 kilometers away from Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan.

According to the data of the Commercial Office of the Consulate General in Karachi, the total amount of Karachi nuclear power project is US$ 9.6 billion, the Chinese loan is US$ 6.5 billion, and the power generation capacity is 2.2 million kilowatts. The project is built by China Zhongyuan Foreign Engineering Co., Ltd., and it is planned to generate electricity in 2020.

China’s nuclear power "going out" has been exported to seven countries.

Compared with Algeria, the starting point of CNNC’s "going out", Pakistan, an important stop of CNNC’s "going out", is more familiar to the industry. Pakistan is not only an important "bridge" running through the Middle East and South Asia, but also an overseas "post station" of China’s "Silk Road Economic Belt" and "21st Century Maritime Silk Road", and will become the "economic center" of the region.

According to the China-Pakistan nuclear energy cooperation agreement, the construction of a 300,000 kW PWR nuclear power plant in Chashma, Pakistan is an intergovernmental project for peaceful use of nuclear energy between China National Nuclear Corporation (the predecessor of China National Nuclear Corporation) and Pakistan National Committee. According to a report by CBN on 16th, the project contract was signed in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on December 31st, 1991, and came into effect on February 25th, 1992 with the approval of both governments. On August 1st, 1993, the first tank of concrete (FCD) was poured. Li Xiaoming said earlier that the signing and implementation of this project indicates that China’s nuclear power technology has gone abroad and occupied a place in the international nuclear power market, which has effectively enhanced the influence of China’s nuclear industry in this field in the world.

According to official data, the Chashma Phase I nuclear power project is a milestone in the history of nuclear power development in China, and it has been highly praised by the International Atomic Energy Agency and the Pakistani and China governments for its good operation record. At the same time, the project makes China officially become the eighth exporter of nuclear power plants in the world.

According to the First Financial Report, the first phase of Chashma Nuclear Power Project was provided to Pakistan by the Chinese side in the form of turnkey, taking Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant in China as a reference. It was the largest high-tech foreign cooperation project in China at that time, with a total contract value of US$ 580 million. China is fully responsible for design, equipment procurement, civil construction, equipment installation, commissioning training and trial operation of power stations.

"In the process of project construction, the cultures of China and Pakistan are highly integrated." Li Xiaoming said earlier, "If you go to our project site, you will find that many Pakistani employees at the site speak Sichuan very well. At that time, many of our employees who went to Pakistan were Sichuan nationals. The employees of both sides had long-term contact, and dialects became one of the languages of communication. "

Like the high-speed rail, the "going out" of nuclear power has become a national strategy, and national leaders have repeatedly pushed China’s nuclear power to "go out" during their visits.

As the big brother of nuclear power enterprises in China, China National Nuclear Corporation is the only enterprise in China that has successfully exported nuclear power plants and achieved batch export. It has successfully exported 7 nuclear power units and 8 reactors or nuclear power plants to 7 countries, established scientific and technological economic and trade relations with more than 40 countries and regions around the world, and is negotiating with more than 20 countries for cooperation in the whole industrial chain of nuclear industry such as nuclear power and uranium resources, nuclear fuel and nuclear technology application.

Besides Pakistan, CNNC has signed cooperation agreements with Argentina, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Britain, France, Jordan, Armenia and other countries.

  According to the cooperation standard of social security service in Fujian Province, Zhangzhou Social Security Center and cooperative banks jointly set up "nearby" service outlets, sinking 37 high-frequency social security services such as insurance registration, treatment inquiry and qualification certification to the social security service area of the bank, so that people can do things at home.

  "This year, Zhangzhou also innovatively launched the’ social bank service through train’, which’ moved’ social security services from the window to the car and drove into communities, enterprises and villages, so that policy propaganda and business handling could achieve’ zero distance’." Zhang Xiaobin, deputy director of the People’s Social Security Bureau of Zhangzhou City, said that especially in the rural "market day", the through train will enter the market and deliver the service to the villagers.

  "The network layout of the’ 15-minute convenience service circle’ can provide people with more efficient and convenient services for social security institutions; For banks, it can also provide better financial extension services to further stimulate and stimulate consumer demand. " Lin Benxi, an expert in social security research and a professor at the School of Economics of Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, said. (End)

Ten Facts about People’s Livelihood Revealed in the Report of the 19th National Congress

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, October 21st: Ten Facts about People’s Livelihood Revealed in the Report of the 19th National Congress

  Xinhua News Agency "Xinhua Viewpoint" reporter

  The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly pointed out that when Socialism with Chinese characteristics entered a new era, the main contradiction in our society had been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development.

  How to fill the shortcomings of people’s livelihood in view of the "imbalance" and "insufficiency" of development, so that the fruits of reform and development can benefit all people more fairly? The new measures for people’s livelihood revealed in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have attracted the attention of delegates and people.

  Expand middle-income groups

  The report of the 19th National Congress proposed to expand middle-income groups. In recent years, people’s money bags have swelled faster than GDP growth, and the scale of middle-income groups has continued to expand. "Expanding China" is the key to forming an "olive-shaped" distribution structure, which is related to building a well-off society in an all-round way.

  Su Hainan, vice president of china association for labour studies, said that it is necessary to ensure sustained and steady economic growth and consolidate the economic foundation of "expanding China". We should rely on the adjustment and optimization of economic structure, industrial structure, industrial structure and professional post structure, take the improvement and upgrading of human resources quality structure as an important way, and take the improvement of relevant income and property distribution system as a direct means to drive more and more low-income groups into middle-income groups.

  Promote multi-channel employment of migrant workers

  Employment is the biggest livelihood. The report of the 19th National Congress proposed to promote multi-channel employment and entrepreneurship of migrant workers.

  In recent years, the situation of rural labor transfer and employment has grown steadily, and the total number of migrant workers in China has increased from 263 million at the end of 2012 to 282 million at the end of 2016. The new generation of migrant workers accounted for nearly 50%.

  Deputy Ju Xiaolin, an engineer of China Railway Electrification Bureau Group, said that the concern about the employment of migrant workers reflects the direction of promoting common prosperity. At present, the focus of migrant workers’ employment is not only to "find a job", but also how to take root in the city and enjoy better education and medical conditions. Even some educated and skilled migrant workers have embarked on the road of entrepreneurship.

  Realize the national overall planning of endowment insurance as soon as possible.

  The data shows that by the end of 2015, the number of elderly people over 60 years old in China has reached 222 million, accounting for 16.1% of the total population. The "silver hair tide" has a great impact on the balance of payments of pension funds. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to realize the national overall planning of endowment insurance as soon as possible.

  Chu Fuling, director of the Social Security Research Center of the Central University of Finance and Economics, said that after the implementation of national overall planning, surplus and deficiency can be adjusted and risks can be dispersed nationwide. National overall planning of basic old-age insurance is a systematic project, and it is necessary to realize the unity of fund overall planning, standardized system, sound management and technical specifications.

  Completely abolish the use of medicine to support doctors.

  The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to completely abolish the use of medicine to support doctors and improve the drug supply guarantee system.

  At present, the drug addition policy that has been implemented for more than 60 years has been cancelled, and the proportion of residents’ personal health expenditure in total health expenditure has dropped to less than 30%.

  Deputy Xie Aie, a doctor who has been practicing medicine in Honghu Fishing Ground in Hubei Province for more than 20 years, said that now, more than 600 fishermen in her fishing ground have all participated in the new rural cooperative medical system, and with the popularization of basic drugs, the income of grassroots doctors no longer depends on selling drugs. In the past, it was difficult and expensive to see a doctor at the grassroots level.

  At the same time, many medical experts said that after the cancellation of drug addition, some hospitals may benefit from reagents and consumables. There are still many hurdles to be taken to cancel the policy of supporting doctors with medicine and truly implement it.

  Make the vast majority of urban and rural new laborers receive high school education.

  The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward that the vast majority of new urban and rural laborers should receive high school education and more higher education.

  At present, the average years of education of the newly-added labor force in China have exceeded 13.3 years, which is equivalent to the level of freshmen. However, the development level of the whole country is uneven, especially in the poverty-stricken areas in the central and western regions, where the popularization of high school education is low due to the shortage of educational resources.

  Chu Zhaohui, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Educational Sciences, and other experts believe that the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pays attention to the education of new labor force in urban and rural areas, which reflects the determination of the CPC Central Committee to further promote educational equity. Building a learning society and improving the quality of the people need to fill the shortcomings and grasp the key points, which also shows that we should continue to deepen the comprehensive reform in the field of education so that more people can enjoy better education.

  Ensure that the poor people and regions will be lifted out of poverty in 2020.

  According to the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we should focus on tackling the task of poverty alleviation in deep poverty areas, ensure that by 2020, the rural poor will be lifted out of poverty under China’s current standards, and all poverty-stricken counties will be stripped of their hats, so as to solve the overall regional poverty and truly get rid of poverty.

  There are still three years to build a well-off society in an all-round way, and the task of getting rid of poverty in deep poverty areas is still very arduous.

  Deputy Cai Songtao, secretary of Lankao County Party Committee, said that poverty in a region is not only restricted by natural conditions and social factors, but also related to the lack of endogenous motivation for local development. Poverty alleviation can’t stop at indicators, but be satisfied with "taking off the hat". It is even more necessary to prevent "fake poverty alleviation" and "digital poverty alleviation" and stimulate the cadres and the masses to get rid of poverty and become rich and rush to a better life.

  Focus on solving outstanding environmental problems such as air, water and soil.

  The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward that efforts should be made to solve outstanding environmental problems, including "continuously implementing air pollution prevention and control actions to win the blue sky defense war", "accelerating water pollution prevention and control" and "strengthening soil pollution control and remediation".

  Since 2013, China has implemented three major action plans to prevent and control air, water and soil pollution. According to statistics, in 2016, the average concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions decreased by more than 30% compared with 2013. The proportion of Class I-III water bodies in the surface water national control section increased to 67.8%. At the same time, in some places, the effect of improving air quality in autumn and winter is not obvious, and it is difficult to achieve the water quality goal.

  "Solving environmental problems requires perseverance." Deputy Li Yunting, director of the Atmospheric Office of Beijing Environmental Monitoring Center, said that the report of the 19th National Congress put forward measures such as "improving pollution discharge standards", "strengthening the responsibility of polluters" and "severe punishment", which made the people deeply feel the determination and hope to win the tough battle of environmental governance.

  Accelerate the establishment of a housing system with multi-agent supply, multi-channel guarantee and simultaneous rent and purchase.

  According to the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we should adhere to the position that houses are used for living, not for speculation, and speed up the establishment of a housing system with multi-subject supply, multi-channel guarantee and simultaneous rent and purchase, so that all people can live and live.

  At present, real estate regulation and control is based on urban policies. First-tier cities and hot-spot second-tier cities take measures from both demand and supply to control the excessive rise of housing prices. Third-and fourth-tier cities have achieved remarkable results in destocking. Piloting housing leasing in many places.

  Liu Hongyu, director of Tsinghua University Real Estate Research Institute, believes that "multi-agent supply, multi-channel guarantee and simultaneous rent and purchase" gives a complete description of the housing system from three aspects: the supply system, the security system and the rental market, which makes the goal of "letting all people live and live" more clear and clear.

  Implement food safety strategy

  The safety on the tip of the tongue is directly related to the livelihood of more than 1.3 billion people. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to implement the food safety strategy so that people can eat with confidence.

  The results of sampling inspection in recent two years show that the food safety situation in China is generally stable, and the qualified rate of sample sampling inspection has risen steadily. At the same time, food safety risks still exist in some areas, and problems such as excessive residues of agricultural and veterinary drugs and illegal addition and abuse of food additives cannot be ignored.

  Deputy Ru Zhengang, a professor at Henan Institute of Science and Technology who has been paying attention to food safety, said that at present, the demands of the masses have shifted from eating well to eating with confidence. To ensure food safety, on the one hand, we must strictly control, formulate the strictest standards, strengthen the strictest supervision, start the strictest accountability, and establish a scientific and perfect food safety governance system; On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen the source control of agricultural production and reduce pollution as much as possible.

  Improve the care service system for left-behind children, women and the elderly.

  The "three left-behind" groups in rural areas have always been the focus of social attention. The report of the 19th National Congress proposed to improve the care service system for left-behind children, women and the elderly in rural areas.

  Deputy Li Liancheng, secretary of the Party branch of Xixinzhuang Village, Qingzu Town, Puyang County, Henan Province, said that in recent years, the flow of rural labor force to cities has accelerated, and the number of left-behind children, women and the elderly in rural areas has increased significantly, and their ability to get rich, start businesses and even protect themselves is relatively weak. There should be no shortage of people on the road to a well-off society. We should care for special groups such as left-behind children, women and the elderly, and increase investment to ensure that their basic livelihood is taken care of and public services are guaranteed, so as to achieve "education for the young" and "support for the weak".
