Preface
前言
China is the world's largest developing country. In its development, it has endeavored to integrate the interests of the Chinese people with people of other countries, providing assistance to the best of its ability to other developing countries within the framework of South-South cooperation to support and help other developing countries, especially the least developed countries (LDCs), to reduce poverty and improve livelihood. China has proactively promoted international development and cooperation and played a constructive role in this aspect.
中国是世界上最大的发展中国家。在发展进程中，中国坚持把中国人民的利益同各国人民的共同利益结合起来，在南南合作框架下向其他发展中国家提供力所能及的援助，支持和帮助发展中国家特别是最不发达国家减少贫困、改善民生。中国以积极的姿态参与国际发展合作，发挥出建设性作用。
When providing foreign assistance, China adheres to the principles of not imposing any political conditions, not interfering in the internal affairs of the recipient countries and fully respecting their right to independently choosing their own paths and models of development. The basic principles China upholds in providing foreign assistance are mutual respect, equality, keeping promise, mutual benefits and win-win.
中国提供对外援助，坚持不附带任何政治条件，不干涉受援国内政，充分尊重受援国自主选择发展道路和模式的权利。相互尊重、平等相待、重信守诺、互利共赢是中国对外援助的基本原则。
In recent years, China's foreign assistance has kept growing. The following is an introduction of China's foreign assistance from 2010 to 2012.
近年来，中国对外援助规模持续增长，对外援助事业稳步发展。这里，就2010年至2012年的对外援助情况作一介绍。
I. Developing Foreign Assistance Cause Steadily
一、稳步发展对外援助事业
The scale of China's foreign assistance kept expanding from 2010 to 2012. Besides complete projects and goods and materials, which were the main forms of China's foreign assistance, technical cooperation and human resources development cooperation also saw remarkable increases. Asia and Africa were the major recipient areas of China's foreign assistance. To promote the realization of Millennium Development Goals, China directed most of its assisting funds to low-income developing countries.
2010年至2012年，中国对外援助规模持续增长。其中，成套项目建设和物资援助是主要援助方式，技术合作和人力资源开发合作增长显著。亚洲和非洲是中国对外援助的主要地区。为促进实现千年发展目标，中国对外援助资金更多地投向低收入发展中国家。
1. Financial Resources for Foreign Assistance
（一）援助资金
From 2010 to 2012, China appropriated in total 89.34 billion yuan (14.41 billion U.S. dollars) for foreign assistance in three types: grant (aid gratis), interest-free loan and concessional loan.
2010年至2012年，中国对外援助金额为893.4亿元人民币。对外援助资金包括无偿援助、无息贷款和优惠贷款三种方式。
Grant is mainly offered to help recipient countries build small or medium-sized social welfare projects, and to fund human resources development cooperation, technical cooperation, material assistance and emergency humanitarian aid. In the three years, China provided 32.32 billion yuan of grants, accounting for 36.2 percent of the total assistance volume.
无偿援助重点用于帮助受援国建设中小型社会福利项目以及实施人力资源开发合作、技术合作、物资援助和紧急人道主义援助等。三年中，中国对外提供无偿援助323.2亿元人民币，占对外援助总额的36.2%。
Interest-free loan is mainly used to help recipient countries construct public facilities and launch projects to improve people's livelihood. In the three years, China offered 7.26 billion yuan of interest-free loans, taking up 8.1 percent of its foreign assistance volume.
无息贷款主要用于帮助受援国建设社会公共设施和民生项目。三年中，中国对外提供无息贷款72.6亿元人民币，占对外援助总额的8.1%。
Concessional loan is mainly used to help recipient countries undertake manufacturing projects and large and medium-sized infrastructure projects with economic and social benefits, or for the supply of complete plants, machinery and electronic products. In the three years, the concessional loans China provided to other countries amounted to 49.76 billion yuan, or 55.7 percent of its total assistance volume in the same period.
优惠贷款主要用于帮助受援国建设有经济社会效益的生产型项目、大中型基础设施项目，提供较大型成套设备、机电产品等。三年中，中国对外提供优惠贷款497.6亿元人民币，占对外援助总额的55.7%。
Foreign assistance budget is put under the unified management of the Ministry of Finance in line with the budget and final accounts system. Concessional loans are raised by the Export-Import Bank of China on the market. As the loan interest is lower than the benchmark interest released by the People's Bank of China, the difference is made up by the state as financial subsidies.
援外预算资金由财政部按预决算制统一管理。优惠贷款本金由中国进出口银行通过市场筹措，贷款利率低于中国人民银行公布的基准利率，由此产生的利息差额由国家财政补贴。
