成套項目是中國最主要的對外援助方式。從1954年開始,中國利用成套項目援助方式為越南、朝鮮兩國修復被戰(zhàn)爭破壞的鐵路、公路、港口、橋梁和市政交通等設施,并援建一批基礎工業(yè),為兩國戰(zhàn)后重建和經(jīng)濟發(fā)展作出巨大貢獻。此后,成套項目建設的規(guī)模和范圍不斷擴大,在對外援助支出中一直占有較大比例。目前,成套項目援助占對外援助財政支出的40%左右。
截至2009年底,中國共幫助發(fā)展中國家建成2000多個與當?shù)孛癖娚a(chǎn)和生活息息相關(guān)的各類成套項目,涉及工業(yè)、農(nóng)業(yè)、文教、衛(wèi)生、通訊、電力、能源、交通等多個領域。
Complete projects are a major form of China’s foreign aid. From 1954, China had helped Vietnam and DPRK repair war-damaged railways, roads, ports, bridges and urban transport facilities, and assisted them in building a number of basic industrial projects, thus making great contributions to their post-war reconstruction and economic development. Later, foreign aid in complete projects expanded in scale and scope, and accounted for a bigger proportion among China’s foreign aid expenditure. At present, they account for 40% of China’s foreign aid expenditure.
By the end of 2009, China had helped developing countries con-struct and complete over 2,000 complete projects closely linked to local people’s life and production, covering industry, agriculture, culture and education, health care, communication, power supply, energy, transportation and others.
