Build a resilient regional economic structure
Promoting the coordinated development of regions and accelerating the formation of a regional economic layout for high-quality development is the need to promote high-quality development and the need to build a modern economic system. It is also a new development that takes the domestic cycle as the main body and the domestic and international dual cycles promote each other. Needs of the pattern.
It is an important and long-term task to study and grasp the new characteristics and new trends of regional economic development, and to formulate regional governance systems and mechanisms that are more in line with the laws of nature, economy and society.
my country's regional coordinated development has shown new characteristics and new trends.
First of all, while the gap between the east and the west is narrowing, the phenomenon of North-South differentiation has become prominent.
Some experts believe that the gap between the east and the west is mainly the gap in the distribution of productivity, while the gap between the north and the south is mainly the gap between openness, innovation and economic vitality.
Second, the central, southwest, and southeast regions form a triangular stable growth belt for China's economic development.
With the transfer and upgrading of industries, the central, southwest and southeast regions have become a new golden triangle for stable economic development in China.
Under the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, 16 provinces across the country achieved positive economic growth in the first half of the year.
Among them, 9 of the 11 provinces in the Yangtze River Economic Belt achieved positive growth, fully demonstrating the stability and resilience of this new golden triangle.
Third, regional opening has become an important part of the construction of an open economic system.
The construction of open platforms such as free trade zones and free trade ports, the implementation of strategies such as the construction of the “Belt and Road”, the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and the construction of new land-sea corridors in the western region have turned the inland and border marginal locations into a new radiation driven by openness. Center or newly open frontier advantage.
Fourth, innovation has become an important factor affecting coordinated regional development.
In the era of digital economy, the central and western regions usher in unprecedented development opportunities. The development of Guizhou's big data industry is a typical case of new factors activating regional comparative advantages.
Fifth, urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas have become core platforms for regional development.
Central cities drive metropolitan areas, metropolitan areas drive urban agglomerations, and urban agglomerations drive regional development.
In the coming period, coordinated regional development needs to pay more attention to reasonable growth and steady improvement in quality.
While adhering to the overall regional strategy of the four major sectors, major regional development strategies such as the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the integrated construction of the Yangtze River Delta, and the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area will pay more attention to fostering and forming development momentum. Emphasize ecological protection to provide guarantee for the sustainable development of the country.
How to handle the relationship between "good development" and "good protection" will be an important main line of regional coordination in the future.
To build a resilient regional economic layout, it is necessary to build an institutional system with free flow and efficient allocation of factors between regions. First, while giving play to the decisive role of the market, the government should also play a better role. It is necessary to emphasize the use of regional comparative advantages to promote industrial specialization, but also to consider multiple goals such as food security and ecology. The second is to pay more attention to the optimization and balance of the proportion of light and heavy industries, the proportion of local and export enterprises in the region. The third is to improve the ability to store emergency supplies and produce products, and to better build a mechanism for civilian use in normal times and for emergency use in emergency.
