China's first urbanization plan demonstrates its ambition to achieve multiple goals through a massive economic and social program, analysts said.

These goals, as stated in the 30,000-character New-style Urbanization Plan (2014-20) released on Sunday, include boosting domestic demand, addressing rural and agricultural problems, facilitating industrial upgrading, promoting regional development and advancing social benefits for all.

The multiple goals are evident in the text of the plan, which not only discusses giving migrant workers full urban rights - a policy repeatedly pledged by the government - but also deals with a wide spectrum ranging from better city layouts, employment, regional development, public service systems, reductions in energy use and even the conservation of cultural heritage.
