All the residents in the area where houses will be demolished will be covered by social insurance. They will also be guaranteed a stable salary after they move.
Today's Shunyi village will become the town center of the rebuilt county, with libraries, cultural centers, a quake memorial building, a Qiang folk museum and a history museum.
The new county will employ a lot of workers, in particular the Beichuan-Shandong industrial park. Free vocational training will be given in cloth manufacturing, construction and tourism.
Mu also said, "There is no problem for living here, and we are confident the living standards of residents will be greatly improved. Life here will be better."
Land requisition and house demolition will be completed before the end of March, and work on constructing the new Beichuan County will start in April.
