In the past, we have always stressed that rural public utilities are run by farmers and rural collective organizations themselves, and the state's public services are not tilted to rural areas. Therefore, the gap in the development of public utilities between urban and rural areas is very large, and the outstanding problems are the lack of infrastructure and the obvious lag in the development of education, culture, health and other social undertakings. In recent years, the state has implemented the six small projects in rural areas, with an investment of more than 28 billion yuan in 2004, including part of the funds for road construction, and the appearance of rural infrastructure has indeed been improved to a certain extent. National investment in rural education and health is increasing, but the gap is still very large.
