Thousand Thousand Counties GDP Examination Will Weaken &Nbsp; The Functional Area Planning Will Force The Relocation Of Enterprises.

Move or not?

Qingdao Liuting International Airport and Qingdao iron and steel plant have been entangled recently.

The two enterprises are located in the Qingdao blue economic zone. Due to their close proximity, smog from Qingdao iron and steel works often affects flights at airports.

Local officials in Qingdao are considering whether to move out the two businesses.

With the announcement of China's main function area planning in June 8th, the above problems have a preliminary solution.

That is to say, the Qingdao iron and steel works must be relocated because the heavy enterprises should not be placed in the urban area according to the planning of the main functional areas.

According to the planning of the main functional areas of the country, 436 county level administrative units have been included in the national key ecological functional areas, and 800 new large grain production counties (farms), which are planned by the new grain production capacity of 100 billion jin, are included in the "seven zones, twenty-three zones" main agricultural production areas. These areas will weaken or no longer assess the Gross Regional Product (GDP) index.

Xu Xianping, deputy director of the national development and Reform Commission, pointed out at a news conference in June 8th that these areas should either strengthen the assessment of the comprehensive agricultural production capacity or strengthen their protection and provision of ecological functions.

Because of the change of assessment mechanism, it will also make the local development faster.

Ma Zhihui, director of the Economic Research Institute of the Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, told reporters that in the past, tourism development such as Jinggangshan and other places has already stepped out of a way to accelerate residents' income through developing tourism instead of heavy industry.

"Although fiscal revenue and industrial growth are not fast, the income of farmers is high, which is also conducive to sustainable economic growth. Every place needs to explore suitable local development paths as soon as possible."

He told reporters in June 9th.

Thousand counties weaken

Thousand County GDP examination will weaken

This reporter learned that, in addition to the June 8th China main functional area planning announced, the local development and Reform Commission's main functional area planning at the end of last year is expected to be introduced in the near future.

A huge change is that the GDP assessment of thousands of cities and counties across the country will be weakened.

Liu Yuping, an investigator of the Chongqing development and Reform Commission planning department, told reporters that in the past, there were also assessment indicators, such as Chongqing in the main urban areas, the surrounding areas and the slightly backward development areas. The contents of the assessment were different.

But after the promulgation of the national main functional area planning, Chongqing will also have some changes in this respect.

"According to the requirements of the state, the assessment of the county government in the future will be more specific."

He said.

According to the recently published planning of the main functional areas of the country, the national land can be divided into optimized development, key development, restricted development and prohibited development zones.

Among them, the optimized development area is the urbanization area that should be optimized for industrialization and urbanization.

The key development area is an urbanized area with certain economic foundation and should focus on industrialization and urbanization.

There are two types of restricted development zones. One is the main production area of agricultural products. We must enhance the comprehensive agricultural production capacity as the primary task of development. One is the key ecological functional areas. We must enhance the production capacity of ecological products as the primary task.

At present, the main production areas of agricultural products involve 7 zones and 23 belts, including 7 areas, such as the Northeast Plain, Huang Huai Hai Plain and so on, involving agricultural products such as rice and wheat.

Among them, the construction of the main grain producing areas includes 800 grain production counties (farms), which are planned and determined by the new grain production capacity of 100 billion jin, and the core is 70 counties (Urban flags) between 1 billion Jin and 2 billion jin.

The country's key ecological function zones include 436 county-level administrative units in the national key ecological functional areas.

Xu Xianping, deputy director of the national development and Reform Commission, pointed out that different performance appraisal methods should be applied to different main functional areas. For the restricted development of the main agricultural production areas, it is necessary to strengthen the assessment of the comprehensive agricultural production capacity instead of assessing the income of economic growth. The key ecological functional zones that restrict development are mainly to strengthen its protection of ecological functions and assess the ability to provide ecological products.

For areas prohibited from development, it is mainly to strengthen the examination of the authenticity and integrity of natural and cultural resources.

"The results of performance appraisal with different emphasis on different functional areas should be taken as an important basis for selecting and appointing local party and government leading and leading cadres, training and education, and rewarding punishment.

If you do not develop according to the requirements of the main functional area, you will have an impact on your evaluation.

He said.

However, this does not mean that restricting development can not engage in industry, nor does it mean that it does not develop.

Li Shouxin, director of the planning department of the national development and Reform Commission, pointed out that "in fact, in some ecological functional areas, moderate activities to develop energy and mineral resources are allowed, but the assessment of ecological environment must be carried out."

Liu Yuping, a researcher at the planning department of the Chongqing development and Reform Commission, told reporters that agricultural production areas such as grain are not allowed to engage in industry, and that processing industries related to grain and other related industries are permitted.

"As long as it is not a heavy industry that pollutes the environment," he said.

He said.

The reporter learned that the planning of the main functional areas reported by provinces and autonomous regions, and the classification of their functional areas, have been linked to the national plan.

The division of main functional areas determined by national planning will be more specific in local planning.

For example, the main grain producing areas in the Yangtze River Basin, which are planned by the main functional areas of the country, are finely divided in Hubei.

Like Jianli and Honghu, they have been included in the restricted development area, but there is no similar statement in Xiantao, which is also the main producing area of grain and cotton.

The state also has different opinions on restricting the development zone not to assess GDP.

A county researcher pointed out that the state needs to increase the pfer payment of financial funds.

The reason is that at present, some small and poor counties only need 1 hundred million of their annual wages, and the big ones still need 2-3 billion.

But protecting the ecological environment and maintaining the total capital of agricultural main production areas is too big.

For example, as a major producer of grain and cotton in Hubei, Jingzhou has 18 billion fiscal expenditure in 2010, of which 10 billion needs a variety of pfer payments.

Yang Weimin, Secretary General of the national development and Reform Commission, revealed that last year, the central government took 25 billion to the key ecological function areas to protect the public services and social management expenditures in these areas. According to the 436 county-level administrative units, it was equivalent to the average pfer payment of nearly 60 million yuan per county.

Forcing local exploration of new models

With the announcement of various levels of planning, a major wave of relocation of key enterprises is coming.

In fact, a few years ago, there was an inkling.

Just a few years ago, Shougang, Shijingshan District, Beijing, had moved to Caofeidian in Hebei. The main steel plant in Chongqing also moved to longevity County in the suburb, and the boiler plant in Wuhan moved to East Lake Development Zone as a whole.

At present, Qingdao iron and steel works are also facing relocation.

Shougang Guiyang special steel plant is also preparing to move.

Xu Zhongbo, a professor at University of Science and Technology Beijing School of metallurgy, pointed out that iron and steel enterprises are mainly energy consuming enterprises, and their pollution level is better than that of paper making, printing and dyeing.

At present, smoke from the chimney of Qingdao iron and steel works affects flights, so relocation is sooner or later.

In particular, at present, the major functional area planning has been promulgated by the state, and some heavy enterprises, especially those with serious pollution, have been moving away.

He said.

It is reported that at present, the relocation of Chongqing iron and steel (601005, stock bar) factory is close to the new water source area, plus new equipment installed. The surrounding cars and motorcycles need large quantities of steel, and the profit situation is acceptable.

And because Shougang occupies too large and stalls, at present, Caofeidian project has reportedly lost billions of dollars in the month.

In fact, in order to meet the needs of the main functional areas of the state, the NDRC has worked out the layout and adjustment plan of key industrial productivity, which involves the adjustment of industrial layout of nine key industries, including non-ferrous metals, steel, petrochemical, shipbuilding, automobile and building materials. This is one of the seventeen special plans of the state.

A local development and Reform Commission has confirmed that the country has already prepared a number of major functional areas supporting programs to promote the implementation of the main functional area plan.

At present, the adjustment of industrial layout in some industries and regions is accelerating.

For example, Guiyang is urging the Shougang Guiyang special steel company and Guizhou Huadian Qingzhen power generation company to move respectively at the end of December 2012 and the end of June 2011.

The 2 enterprises and Guizhou cement plant, Guodian Guiyang power plant as the 4 major sources of pollution, annual sulfur dioxide emissions accounted for 63.18% of the city's total emissions.

Kong Xiangzhong, Secretary General of the China Cement Association, told reporters that the local cement plants are generally built in the mining area. In recent years, the pace of relocation has been accelerating. Even if the main functional areas of the country are not issued, "the relocation of cement enterprises away from the ecological protection zones will not slow down".

Ma Zhihui, director of the Economic Research Institute of the Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, believes that more places need to be developed as soon as possible after the introduction of major functional areas.

For example, Jiangxi's Dayu County, Shangyou County, Chong Yi County, Longnan County, Quan Nan county, Ding Nan county and Jinggangshan city have been included in the list of key national ecological function zones.

Many of the above Gannan areas have undertaken some high energy consumption pollution projects in the past. There are also copper smelting and non-ferrous metal smelting projects in southern Jiangxi.

It is rich in mineral resources and can be exploited under the premise of protecting the environment. "However, smelting should be pferred to other areas of priority development or priority development, which will affect economic growth and fiscal revenue."

Ma Zhihui found that Gannan region has rich forest resources, such as Chong Yi county and other places, which have developed bamboo processing projects and products export. This is a light industry suitable for local resource development.

Jinggangshan is rich in red tourism resources. The tourism industry in this area develops very fast and the income of residents is very high.

"As long as the government does not assess GDP and industry as hard targets, the residents' purse can be bulged."

He said.

Hao Minghuan, deputy director of the Regional Economic Research Institute of the central and Western Economic Development Planning Research Institute, agrees with this view.

In many parts of Shaanxi, he has found that some poor mountainous areas have developed eco-tourism under the condition of protecting the environment, and invited people from the city to grow vegetables in the local market.

But such a development path needs practical exploration.

"Despite the rapid economic growth in these areas, the protection of the environment is very effective.

The income of residents has increased.

Such a development mode needs accelerating exploration everywhere, because this is not the mode of developing industry driven service industry in most regions.

Hao Minghuan said.
