BEIJING, Jan. 12 (Xinhua)-- The Qinghai-Tibet Railway has transported 1.18 million
passengers and 1.16 million tons of cargo since it began operations last
July, according to the Railway Administration.
Liu Zhijun, the railway minister, said there have been no serious accidents
and the environment has been effectively protected.
The 1,956-km Qinghai-Tibet Railway has led to an increase in the number of
visitors and local economy, according to statistics released by the local
authorities.
By the end of 2006, Tibet has recorded 2.45 million inbound tourists from
home and abroad, up 36 percent over the same period of 2005.
The region expects its economy to expand 13.2 percent in 2006, a
10-year high. From 2001 to 2005, Tibet witnessed average annual economic growth of
12 percent.
