Huzhou city, Chun'an county, Cixi city, Yiwu city, Taizhou's Luqiao district, Xianju county, and Songyang county have been tasked with narrowing urban-rural gaps.
Wenzhou's Lucheng district, Xinchang county, Pan'an county, and Shengsi county will work to become a pioneer in narrowing income gaps among residents.
Ningbo city, Hangzhou's Fuyang district, Wenzhou's Ouhai district, and Sanmen county will be responsible for delivering high standard public services that would be shared by all.
Quzhou city, Jiaxing's Nanhu district, Zhuji city, and Dongyang city will focus on developing themselves into role models for a spiritual civilization.
