China's Central Government will launch a comprehensive support package to pump up economic development and bring lasting stability in the far western Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, said a report of Xinhua News Agency.

A central work conference will be held soon to discuss details of the support scheme and unveil a string of policies.

A roadmap unveiled in March requires 19 affluent provinces and cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong and Shenzhen to pipe support into different areas of Xinjiang under a "pairing assistance model."

Based on this, government delegations were sent to the region from these provinces and cities for a clear picture of how help can be offered from April 7 to May 8.

The roadmap aims at achieving "marked" improvements in living standards in Xinjiang within five years, and helping the region achieve a "moderately prosperous society in all aspects" by 2020.
