Southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region plans to invest 601.5 billion yuan (about $94.3 billion) during its 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), according to local authorities.

The number sees a growth rate of 58 percent, compared with that during the 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-2020), said the fifth session of the 11th People's Congress of Tibet Autonomous Region.
