Text: 2. Encouragement of Population Distribution in Accordance with Development Potential and Opportunities. 2.1 Increase the efficacy of social services delivery systems, covering education, public health and infrastructure, with a more extensive outreach capability. 2.2 Provide rural inhabitants with occupational skills in concert with the market demand in each area, and generate such support facilities as credit services and funds. 2.3 Develop an updated and widely disseminated labour and product markets information system. This is aimed at keeping people informed about local employment opportunities and the current demand for agricultural products, so that they can focus on profitable agricultural pursuits, thereby reducing rural-urban job-seeking migration. 2.4 Develop a more valid and complete data base on urban population to be used for systematic city planning.
