The authorities say the experiment has been a success  the Communist Party-run People’s Daily said the crime rate in the walled villages in Daxing district dropped by 73 percent from April to July this year  and the “walled village” concept is being quickly expanded to other districts outside Beijing’s center that are populated by migrant workers.
