Singapore- Singapore and Chinese authorities have endorsed a draft masterplan for a joint eco-city project in the northern China port city of Tianjin, news reports said Wednesday.

The masterplan, developed by a team that includes Singapore's Urban Redevelopment Authority, will guide land use and development.

It reflects the shared vision for a city that is "environmentally friendly, socially harmonious and economically sustainable," The Straits Times said.

All buildings will conform to green standards, and clean and renewable energy will be promoted.

The masterplan was endorsed Tuesday after a meeting of officials from Singapore and China. (dpa)
