  Zhou Huafu said that promoting the integration and coordination of urban and rural areas is an important link in the coordinated development of the region.

In response to the problems of weak industrial development in remote areas such as mountainous areas and islands, and weak urban agglomeration capabilities, Zhejiang has broken through the traditional one-way blood transfusion relief and poverty alleviation practice in developed areas, and implemented the "mountain-sea collaboration project" in developed areas to help accelerate the development of areas.

  "The'Shanhai Collaboration Project' is a large platform for market-oriented poverty alleviation. It has stepped out of a two-way cooperation and win-win model that promotes cooperation through complementarity and win-win cooperation through cooperation." Zhou Huafu said.

  "Metropolitan area economy" is also a major feature of Zhejiang's development.

In the early stage of reform and opening up, Zhejiang explored the "county economy" rooted in the massive economy, and became an important spatial organization form for the coordinated development of Zhejiang's regional development in the forefront of the country.

As the development stage shifts from factor-driven to innovation-driven, Zhejiang is also gradually advancing the transformation of the county economy to the metropolitan area economy.

  "The urban area development strategy revolves around the urban area to build a regional industrial organization network, promote regional division of labor, obtain synergies and scale effects, and achieve optimal allocation of factor resources on a larger geographic scale, and release more space for coordinated regional development." Zhou Huafu said. .

  In the "different" of urban and rural development and the development of metropolitan areas, Zhejiang also holds the core of "sameness".

  Zhou Huafu introduced that, in terms of major livelihood matters, Zhejiang has made great efforts to promote the equalization of basic public services in urban and rural areas.

For example, Zhejiang earlier enabled residents in different regions to enjoy basically unified medical and health, social security and basic education services, and promoted the gradual equalization of the quality of life and comprehensive level of residents in different regions.

  In terms of the construction of the transportation system, Zhejiang has accelerated the establishment and improvement of the transportation network of "external and internal connections, and smooth villages and villages", and explored developments such as "transportation + characteristic industries", "transportation + tourism and leisure", "transportation + e-commerce express delivery", etc. The model connects provincial cities with rural areas, coastal and mountain islands into a dense development community.

  Entering a new era, Zhejiang's regional development has also ushered in new opportunities.

Zhou Huafu stated that Zhejiang will plan and implement a regional coordinated development strategy from a larger scale and higher level with the high requirements of a modernized first province, and continuously enhance the balance and coordination of Zhejiang's development.
