As the world's largest river alluvial island group, Chongming Island boasts a unique wetland landscape, rich biological resources and sufficient solar and wind energy. Chongming, Changxing and Hengsha islands comprise a total area of 1,411 square kilometers, equivalent to one-sixth of the total area of Shanghai. However, Chongming is also facing problems such as ecological degradation, industrial backwardness and lacking of basic infrastructure. With the approval and support of the State Council of China, Shanghai Municipal government will assemble both government and social resources to promote the development and advancement of Chongming.
So far, Shanghai has started the major project of ¡°Chongming ecological-island development¡±, which is also listed in the projects co-supported by Shanghai municipal government and the Ministry of Science and Technology of China. At the same time, the Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality and Chongming County government have co-established six major labs and innovation centers including everglade research and ecological engineering and launched ten priority projects, which aim directly to address current bottleneck technological problems in Chongming¡¯s development.
2006 Shanghai International Eco-Island Chongming Forum, supported by Ministry of Science and Technology, sponsored by Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality and Chongming county government, organized by Shanghai Technology Convention and Exhibition Co., Ltd., will be held on July 12 to 14 at Shanghai DongTan International Conference Center. Inspired by the advanced technologies and experience on ecological island, Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Muncipality has established international cooperation platforms to attract domestic and foreign expertise on Chongming¡¯s development.
We believe that the forum will provide the local government with valuable suggestions and comments on the exploration of Chongming through in-depth discussions and analysis of the current situation, resources and problems.
