President Xi has called for efforts to reach new heights in the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and to make it a pioneer and example in pursuing Chinese modernization.
The coordinated development in Beijing and neighbouring regions is now in full swing and has grown into a new driving force for China’s development, nine years after China launched a key strategy to build the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei regional city cluster.
The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region’s gross domestic product reached 10 trillion yuan RMB in 2022, 1.8 times the 2013 level at current prices, according to a report released by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics.
A more rational industrial layout, the more balanced resource distribution and innovation-driven development have not only helped the crowded Chinese capital achieve healthy growth, but also brought benefits to Tianjin and Hebei.
