		To be sure, urbanisation does not necessarily involve the internal migration of the population from the rural areas to the urban areas, or indeed all to coastal cities like Shanghai.
		Urbanisation can take place locally, but in the circumstances of the Mainland internal migration to urban areas that as a consequence are being built up probably forms the bulk of it.
