Xiao Weiming, deputy secretary-general of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the market access system is a basic system of the socialist market economy, which is of great significance to the construction of a unified national market and the construction of a market-oriented, law-based and international business environment.
In order to thoroughly implement the relevant arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on improving the market access system, fully embody the requirements of "establishing first and then breaking" put forward by the Central Economic Work Conference, based on the strategic positioning of the CPC Central Committee on Nansha, Guangzhou, continue to lay out major reforms in key areas and key links, and fully consider the existing resource factor endowment and economic and social foundation of Nansha, the "Nansha Opinions" were drafted and formed, which were officially issued and implemented in December 2023.
Nansha has relaxed access and strengthened regulatory reforms
Fifteen specific reform initiatives were deployed
Among them, 11 are to relax market access policy measures
It can be divided into two main categories
The first is to plan major institutional reforms and systematically design key reform tasks from the national level. In the pilot planning, efforts will be made to give full play to Nansha's unique advantages in reform and innovation, and use Nansha as a functional carrier for bold exploration and breakthrough in related fields, in order to form a number of pioneering reform and innovation experiences and bring a new situation to the reform of key areas at the national level.
- For example, focusing on accelerating the construction of a high-level open door and a highland for the docking of the rule convergence mechanism, it has successively proposed to participate in the formulation and promotion of the implementation of technical standards for unmanned systems in the sea, land and air, build an international leading industry standard and certification system for industrial robots and intelligent equipment, and carry out international testing and certification services.
The other is to give full play to the advantages of Nansha's existing fields and accelerate the reform measures of deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. The "Nansha Opinions" fully respond to the needs of local development, support Nansha to boldly carry out cutting-edge disruptive scientific and technological innovation, and actively extend market application scenarios.
- For example, the industrial application of unmanned equipment, the construction of an unmanned system industry incubation base in the Greater Bay Area, and the establishment of a global cutting-edge scientific research coordination mechanism in the deep-sea field will greatly encourage industry enterprises with innovation and market prospects to take the lead. For example, giving full play to the advantages of foreign consulates in Guangzhou in Guangzhou, planning to build a comprehensive service base for Chinese enterprises to "go global", effectively encouraging the convergence of advantageous and innovative industry resources, and creating a highland and external service window for the scientific and technological innovation industry with global influence, will provide a guarantee for Nansha to better play its role as a major strategic platform.
