The capital is to raise 10 billion yuan ($1.55 billion) during the next decade to tap the diverse potential of 42 underdeveloped suburban towns, according to the Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform.

By the end of 2015, 5 billion yuan is expected to be in place, including 500 million yuan from the municipal government and the rest from the China Development Bank Capital Co, State-owned and private enterprises, social security funds and overseas capital.

The cooperation of public and private funds will highlight the advantages of combining government-sponsored undertakings and privately-financed projects, said Xiao Huili, director of the commission's township economics department.

As well as providing work and talent for the emerging towns, the investment will also provide new bases for industries that are no longer suitable for the city and ease the enormous population pressure facing the capital, Xiao said.
