The "Aid Tibet" Project, which was designed by the Chinese Government soon after Tibet's peaceful liberation 50 years ago, has already benefited the Southwest Chinese autonomous region during the past half century.

The Tibet Aid-Receiving Office said that during the past 50 years, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) has convened four working conferences specially on Tibet, in a bid to seek and design better measures for Tibet's fast development.

Since 1995, the CPC Central Committee also designates 15 provinces and municipalities to forge long-term aid relationship with Tibet.

So far, 62 aiding projects donated by the Central Government and the aiding provinces have been completed with an investment of 860 million yuan.

During the 4th Tibet Working Conference in 2001, the CPC Central Committee also designs 117 construction projects and 71 aiding projects for Tibet.
