TIANJIN, Feb. 13 (Xinhua) -- Tianjin, a major port city in north China, plans to invest 7 billion yuan (875 million U.S. dollars) to improve its port infrastructure in 2006.
About 4.9 billion yuan (613 million U.S. dollars) was spent on infrastructure construction in 2005, according to sources with the Tianjin Port Group.
