The projects were mainly in high-tech, social service programs and water conservation industries, Yan Pengcheng, spokesperson for the National Development and Reform Commission, told a press briefing on Tuesday.
Data on Monday showed China's FAI grew 6 percent year on year in the first half of this year, 1.5 percentage points lower than that of the first three months.
FAI in high-tech manufacturing displayed strong momentum by growing 13.1 percent year on year, outpacing the country's general FAI growth by 7.1 percentage points.
