In China "most urban" is often contiguous to "most rural," while congestion is both a rural and an urban characteristic, with city growth and problems frecuently increasing due to migrants from the country. Authorities disagree on the proportion of urban residents, but, depending on the region, they may total 10-29 per cent. Although industrialization appears remote and the Communists are committed to agrarian reform, it is likely that there will be an increace in the urban net as the Chinese co-operate with Russia on plans for the modernization of China and its integration with Russia and the Far East
