摘要
China’s port and shipping facilities includes five major new regions, the Ministry of Communications has announced. Five port "clusters," rather than the existing three surrounding Shanghai, Shenzhen and Tianjin, will become the new priorities as part of a new port development plan. The plan to revise Chinese port facilities was made by Communications. Vice Minister Weng Mengyong said the two additional port groups are located on the mainland side of the Taiwan Straits in southern Fujian; and in Hainan and southern Guangdong. The plan is part of an effort to match the national 2006-10 social and economic development programme. China’s sea ports and their relative easy access to containers and industrial materials had been a major factor in transforming the nation’s economy. The port development plan was aimed at expanding the transportation capacity of the Chinese coast to match the economy’s fast growth. The plan will not only focus on boosting capacity of cargo transportation, but also improving industrial and manufacturing strengths in the regions. The new layout plan requires factories whose raw materials are imported to be located near the port cities. Development of multinationals and lifting of trade barriers will continue to promote China’s economic development in coastal regions.
