12. Debt payment :Balancing stock of capital debt by pulling wealth increment While harvesting 4,000 million square meters of housing, Liaoning owed several hundred billion of debt. For this they took such kind of measure as pulling the wealth increment to cover the stock of the capital debt, which meant that while promoting the shantytowns effectively Liaoning tried hard for industrial restructuring, urban transformation and stimulating investment, innovation and consumption, and thus achieved the rapid growth of the GDP, fiscal revenue, personal income and the total wealth of the whole society. Accordingly the debt would be solved easily. On the basis of information from Liaoning , the vast majority of cities are scheduled to repay the debt while only a few of cities were in delinquency.
