In 2000, we visited small businesses that supply parts and surveyed transactional relationship between manufacturers and parts supplying small businesses. Results of these studies are reported from Chapter 1 to 8 in our report booklet. For a study of farming area, we visited neighboring farming towns of Chongqin and surveyed moving of labor forces in those area. We found that there are not moving from farming area to industrial area inside Chongqin city. Most farmers go to coast area to find jobs. Details of this study are reported in Chapter 9 and Chapter 10. In Chapter 11, the problem of poorness in farming districts are reported.
