This year 20 billion yuan will be put into the post-quake reconstruction in Yushu county, northwest China's Qinghai Province which suffered a devastating earthquake last year.

Seven hundred and ninety-eight items covering residents' housing, infrastructure, public facilities and environmental protection etc. are expected to be arranged this year, said an official who manages the projects.

He also said that the government strives to address problems concerning people's livelihood with the spirit of people-oriented.

A 7.1-magnitude earthquake on April 14, 2010 left almost 3,000 people dead or missing and more than 120,000 homeless in Yushu, mostly in Gyegu town, near the epicenter.

Last year 5 billion yuan has been allocated to Yushu for its reconstruction.
