The Guangdong provincial government recently earmarked more than 672 billion yuan ($109.75 billion) to develop the mountainous western, eastern and northern parts of the region over the next five years.

The provincial government hopes the rural economic development plan will help these areas grow to support an increasingly overcrowded Pearl River Delta region, one of China's main hubs of economic growth.

It also hopes that companies and industries in the Pearl River Delta will consider moving to rural parts.
