A bidding session was held this morning for three investment projects to realize the double transfer strategy, whereby transferring labor-intensive industry from the Pearl River Delta to less developed regions in the province. At the same time, workers from those less developed areas will be encouraged to work in local manufacturing and service industries, or move to employment in the more advanced areas.

The bidding for the strategy is financial subsidies totaling 1.5 billion yuan. Each delegation was required to make presentations and answer questions from the experts regarding issues related with the double industrial transfer.

A total of six cities, Meizhou, Shaoguan, Heyuan, Yangjiang, Chaozhou and Zhaoqing, participated in the session.
