Xinghua economy in Jiangsu can only be regarded as average, but in the national point of view, it is also quite good, his economic scale exceeds all county-level administrative units in Guangdong and Sichuan provinces. However, Xinghua's main economic problems are also prominent, with unbalanced fiscal revenue and expenditure and large fiscal deficits; insufficient transformation and upgrading of traditional industries; not many leading enterprises; weak sense of innovation and a weak atmosphere.
It is suggested that Xinghua First in agriculture is to highlight deep processing, improve the added value of the grain industry, enter the prominent pillar industry in industry, strengthen the focus, highlight the main business, and use celebrity influence and natural scenery in the service industry to strengthen tourism.
I wish that the economy of Xinghua is getting better and better, and the people of Xinghua are living happier and happier.
