Connecting the east and the west, linking the south and the north - in the entire national map, the central region has unique location advantages and plays an important role in supporting the process of building a new development pattern.
At the symposium on promoting the rise of the central region in the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that the central region "should strengthen its connection with other major development strategies and better integrate into and support the new development pattern" and "should coordinate the promotion of in-depth reform and high-level opening up, and continue to build a more competitive inland open highland."
On the afternoon of March 20, 2024, Xi Jinping hosted a symposium on promoting the rise of the central region in the new era in Changsha, Hunan Province and delivered an important speech.
In recent years, under the guidance of General Secretary Xi Jinping, the central region has fully leveraged its advantages in location, transportation, and open channels to vigorously develop inland waterway shipping, connect rivers and seas, and link the interior with the outside world, actively promoting the transformation of the inland hinterland into an open frontier.
