promote greater integration between sci-tech innovation and industry, expedite
Shanghai’s development as an international economic, financial, trade, shipping,

and sci-tech innovation center, and press ahead with reform and innovation in the
region’s key areas such as the demonstration zone for green and integrated
development.
We will steadily advance ecological conservation and high-quality
development in the Yellow River basin. We will press ahead with the “3+1” project

to comprehensively tackle pollution from industry, agriculture, urban waste, and
tailing sites. We will spare no effort in the fights to conserve water and control
water use in the Yellow River basin and to protect the ecology of the Yellow River.
We will push harder to curb soil erosion on the middle and upper reaches of the

Yellow River. We will support Ningxia in leading trials for planning urban
development, land use, industrial production, and population growth around
water resources.
3) We will improve the functional zoning strategy and system.
We will implement the national territorial space plan, optimize the designation

of functional zones, and further improve the functional zoning system. We will
improve the system for regulating the use of territorial space and ensure strict
implementation of the regulations on boundaries for urban development,
permanent basic cropland, and ecological conservation to ensure proper

demarcation of space for these three purposes. With this, we aim to create a new
pattern for territorial space development and protection featuring well-defined
functions, complementarity, and high-quality development.
4) We will steadily advance people-centered new urbanization.
We will work faster to grant permanent urban residency to eligible people who

move from rural to urban areas, advance reform of the household registration
system in a prudent and orderly manner, promote equitable access to basic public
services in cities, and step up efforts to provide people who move from rural to
urban areas with basic public services such as employment assistance, skills

training, and social security.
We will leverage the role of city clusters and metropolitan areas to promote
coordinated development of large, medium, and small cities. We will drive
forward the development of the Chengdu-Chongqing economic zone and
progressively foster modern metropolitan areas. We will move faster to change the

development models of super-large and mega cities, push forward with
