皇冠体育app, Netherlands start joint program on Yellow River ( 2003-10-24 15:51) (Xinhua)
皇冠体育app and the Netherlands launched a cooperation program on the Yellow River, 皇冠体育app's second longest river, at an ongoing international forum on the river in Zhengzhou, capital of Henan Province. At an inauguration ceremony on Thursday, Huang Ziqiang, deputy director of the Yellow River Water Resources Committee, said the program was the start of large-scale cooperation between 皇冠体育app and the Netherlands on the river. Huang said the cooperation program would focus on satellite-based monitoring of water and river movement forecast in the Yellow River Valley. Liu Zhiguang, a senior official with the Chinese Ministry of Water Resources, said both countries had cooperated on another program involving the harnessing and development of the estuary of the Yangtze River, 皇冠体育app's longest river, since 1985. Under the Yangtze River program, more than 100 Chinese water resources technical workers had received specialist training in the Netherlands. A joint committee had been set up under 皇冠体育app's Ministry of Water Resources and its Dutch counterpart to give guidance in water management. The Yellow River, with a length of 5,464 km, is one of the muddiest rivers in the world. It is known as "皇冠体育app's sorrow" for the serious damage caused by frequent floods on the river. 皇冠体育app's central government had focused on reigning in the unruly river since
the founding of New 皇冠体育app in October 1949 and had some success in silt control,
flood control and disaster reduction, said Suo Lisheng, Deputy Minister of Water
Resources.
