Northeast China's Liaoning Province is stepping up efforts to rebuild homes affected by summer floods in Chaoyang City and Huludao City, aiming to secure the local residents a warm winter.
As the winter is approaching, local authorities pledged to finish housing reconstruction in rural areas by the end of October.
In Maohezi Village of Chaoyang City, villager Wu Xiujun is about to move into her new home. Her house has finished structural construction, and workers are busy on interior finishing.
"I am so happy to live in the new house. I'm filled with joy," said Wu.
In Zhujiagou Village of Huludao City, the reconstruction of the whole village is about to finish, with over 340 workers working around the clock.
"The new houses are taking shape day after day. The construction has been quick with good quality. We villagers are all satisfied and delighted," said Wang Nan, a local villager.
Yangzhudixia Village of Huludao City, where villagers are relocated from the disaster this summer, is seeing insulation installed for 55 newly built brick houses. Villagers expect to move in by the end of October.
"The project schedule is scientifically arranged, and every process is designated with two persons in charge, one for supervision and coordination, and the other is responsible for technical disclosure. In this way, we can guarantee the quality of our project," introduced Xie Hui, deputy manager of Communications Construction and Municipal Administration Cooperation under the Communications Construction Group of Huludao City.
As of Saturday, Liaoning has completed rebuilding nearly 90 percent of the 16,651 houses damaged by natural disasters.
