3 townships,101 sub-district committees, 3,579 neighbourhood committees and
1,781 villagers’ committees.

Transition economies
The main ingredients of the transition process are:
Liberalization: the process of allowing most prices to be determined in free markets
and lowering trade barriers that had shut off contact with the price structure of the
world's market economies.
Macroeconomic stabilization: primarily the process through which inflation is brought
under control and lowered over time, after the initial burst of high inflation that follows
from liberalization and the release of pent-up demand. This process requires discipline
over the government budget and the growth of money and credit (that is, discipline in
fiscal and monetary policy) and progress toward sustainable balance of payments.
Restructuring and privatization: the processes of creating a viable financial sector and
reforming the enterprises in these economies to render them capable of producing
goods that could be sold in free markets and of transferring their ownership into private
hands.
Legal and institutional reforms: These are needed to redefine the role of the state in
these economies, establish the rule of law, and introduce appropriate competition
policies.
