Representative Li Dan: Deepen regional cooperation and development
"The new land sea channel in the west has opened a new door for Sichuan to sail southward and reach ASEAN directly, and has expanded new space for Sichuan to accelerate the construction of a strategic highland for opening to the west and a new base for participating in international competition," said Li Dan, deputy to the National People's Congress, deputy secretary of the CPC Neijiang Municipal Committee and mayor of Sichuan Province.
In recent years, Sichuan has continued to promote the construction of new land and sea channels in the west, focusing on opening up the "breakpoint" of the western line, optimizing the hub layout, strengthening logistics organization, and deepening regional cooperation, with obvious results——
The Xuzhou Binhai Railway will be completed and put into operation by the end of 2023, reducing the transportation distance between Sichuan and ASEAN by about 30%; The new land sea channel in the west has led to the improvement of logistics efficiency by nearly 40% and the reduction of logistics costs by about 20%. It has become the main channel for Sichuan goods to go out to the sea and become a more efficient logistics channel connecting ASEAN under the RCEP framework; It has further promoted the exchange and cooperation between Sichuan and the international market, especially the ASEAN region.

Through this open logistics channel, more Sichuan products will go to the international market, and more foreign capital and technology will enter Sichuan, boosting Sichuan's industrial upgrading and economic development. For example, Neijiang City, located in the middle of the main axis of Chengdu Chongqing development, around the key link of "smooth channels, build hubs, cultivate enterprises, and strengthen industries", has regularly run new land and sea channel trains in the west. The value of goods under customs supervision of public bonded warehouses has increased by 380 million yuan. The total volume of foreign trade imports and exports has been growing at a high speed for five consecutive years, exceeding 10 billion yuan in 2023, an increase of 151%, ranking first in the province.
Li Dan said that to promote channel opening and cooperation to a higher level, cross regional cooperation needs to be further improved. It is hoped that the western line will be completed as soon as possible, so that the overall efficiency of the channel can play a better role; The provinces and cities along the line, as well as ASEAN, Central Asia and other countries and regions, should establish closer cooperation mechanisms, increase cultural exchanges and cooperation, and promote the in-depth development of channel opening and cooperation.
