BEIJING - China's top economic planner said Sunday that it has approved 157 fixed-asset investment (FAI) projects with combined investment totaling 1.33 trillion yuan ($194 billion).

A large part of the investment has gone into transportation and energy projects, according to Meng Wei, a spokesperson with the National Development and Reform Commission.

Other projects that attracted the FAI included those from high-tech and water conservation sectors.
