Original title: “Re-expansion” of the pilot free trade zone, helping to open and accelerate development
The State Council recently issued the “General Plan of the China (Beijing), (Hunan) and (Anhui) Free Trade Zone Pilot” and the “China (Zhejiang) Free Trade Zone Expansion Pilot Plan” . So far, the number of China’s pilot free trade zones has risen to 21.
Opening brings progress and closing inevitably lags behind. Affected by the new corona pneumonia epidemic, many countries around the world have become more introspective, but China is still committed to openness. As a testing ground for China’s reform and opening-up, since the Shanghai Free Trade Zone was listed in 2013, based on pioneering essays, summarizing experience, and copying and promoting, the development of the Shanghai Free Trade Zone. China Free Trade has been one after another and flourished in many ways, gradually forming a combination of point, line and surface. Deepen the development of a new opening situation. More free trade zones, including Beijing, Hunan, Zhejiang, and Anhui, can be said to have landed one by one, showing that China is committed to greater openness with a clear attitude and firm determination.
The “re-expansion” of the Pilot Free Trade Zone helped create a new height for reform and openness. There is no end to practical development, there is no end to the emancipation of the mind, and there is no end to reform and openness. Looking ahead, we must solve the various problems facing development, resolve risks and challenges from various aspects, better exploit the advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and promote sustained and healthy economic and social development. There is no other way than to deepen reform and opening up. This time, the central government decided to establish a new batch of pilot free trade zones and endeavor to explore a higher level of independent openness in the pilot free trade zones, demonstrating the Chinese government’s steadfast determination to unswervingly expand openness and build a new system for a higher level of open economy. The four plans fully implement the central government requirements to accelerate the formation of a new development pattern, highlight a smooth cycle to build a new development pattern, highlight scientific and technological innovation to generate a new development momentum, highlight deepening of the reforms to stimulate the vitality of new development, highlight the high-level openness to create new development advantages. Focusing on new fields and new business formats such as trade in services, advanced manufacturing and the digital economy, a clearly differentiated pilot task has been proposed, with the aim of creating a new reform and opening up plateau with its own characteristics.
The “re-expansion” of the Pilot Free Trade Zone helped accelerate the formation of a new pattern of development. Accelerate the formation of a new development pattern in which the internal cycle is the main body and the national and international double cycles mutually promote each other. With the internal cycle as the main body, it is by no means a closed door to operate, but by taking advantage of the potential of internal demand to improve the internal and international markets Good Unicom will make better use of both national and international markets and resources to achieve stronger and more sustainable development. Beijing’s technological innovation momentum is strong, Hunan’s equipment manufacturing industry has deep accumulation, Anhui emerging industry elements are active, Zhejiang’s digital economy is booming … Pilot free trade zones newly established or expansion zones in these four regions to improve the advanced and stable industrial chain supply chain The nature and competitiveness of the industry will lead to high-quality development of the industry and make useful explorations to accelerate the formation of a new development pattern in which the national and international dual cycles are the fundamental pillar and the mutual promotion of the national and international cycles. Through broader scope, broader fields, and deeper reform and exploration, we will stimulate the endogenous driving force for high-quality development and promote the formation of a new pattern of development through a higher level of openness.
The “re-expansion” of the Pilot Free Trade Zone helped stabilize basic foreign trade and foreign investment. Foreign trade and foreign investment are one of the important driving forces of economic development. Stabilization of the basic market for foreign investment and foreign investment is the domestic requirement to execute the work of the “six stability” and strive to achieve the annual economic and social development goals and tasks. It is also a general plan to promote epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. Important content. In 2013, the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone launched the first negative list of foreign investment in the Pilot Free Trade Zone. On the list, there are 190 industries that restrict or prohibit foreign investment. There are only 30 industries that are prohibited from foreign investment. Compared to the first list, it has been reduced by 80%. Most of these liberalized areas have been liberalized throughout the country, which has promoted the opening of the country to the outside world and improved the country’s openness and transparency has played an important role in stabilizing the fundamentals of foreign trade and foreign investment. Statistics show that in the first 7 months of this year, more than 3,300 foreign-funded enterprises were established in 18 pilot free trade zones, with an actual use of foreign capital of more than 90 billion yuan, and the volume of imports and export reached 2.7 billion yuan. The area of these 18 pilot free trade zones Together, it is less than four thousandths of the country, but the use of foreign capital represents 16.8% of the country, and the share of foreign trade imports and exports represents 13 , 5% of the country.
The opening does not stop and the reform does not stop. The construction of each pilot free zone is like “seeds obtained through experiments in experimental fields”, as long as these “seeds” are grown and sown on a larger scale, they will surely bear fruit and promote comprehensive and deepening reforms. The openness is constant and far-reaching, helping China’s economic and social development to reach a new level. (Source: Preacher Net Luo Jianhua)
