Chongqing Foreign Affairs Office Boosting Open Development of Yunyang County

By Liu Dingrui/The World and Chongqing

To further support Chongqings economic and social development, fully mobilize  Foreign Affairs resources, and boost the open development of districts and counties, the Foreign Affairs Office of the Chongqing Municipal Government (FAO) organized a delegation for a visit to Yunyang County on April 28th-29th. The delegation includes 1) consular officials from the UK, the Philippines, Japan, Hungary, Canada, and Cambodia in Chongqing, 2) institutional representatives, such as the Chongqing Trade Promotion Office of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Vietnam, the Liaison Office of the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) in Chongqing, the Chongqing Representative Office of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, and the Hong Kong Entrepreneur Association in Chongqing, as well as 3) foreign/overseas media from Singapore, Japan, and Hong Kong SAR in Chongqing and several local mainstream media outlets. Director-General Wang Wen and Deputy Director-General Li Mingquan of the FAO led and accompanied the delegation.

Located in northeast Chongqing and the core of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, Yunyang County serves as a crucial point of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin-Hub Mega-Region and the Yangtze River Economic Belt. Hailed as “Grand Yangtze, Natural Yunyang”, the name Yunyang means “cloudy and sunny (Yun and Yang in Chinese) with inviting mountains and rivers”. In 2021, Yunyang registered a regional GDP of RMB52.81 billion, a year-on-year increase of 9.6%.

Qin Changde, Secretary of the CPC Yunyang County Committee, said during the meeting with the delegation that Yunyang is brimming with vitality and charm. Currently, it stands at the key juncture of fully driving the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin-Hub Mega-Region, and the coordinated development strategies of “One Metropolitan Area, Two Urban Clusters” and the Wanzhou-Kaizhou-Yunyang region. The whole County is earnestly putting into practice the philosophy of open development, and endeavors to let the world know Yunyang and let Yunyang know the world, writing a new chapter of comprehensive socialist modernization that features the “Five Areas and One Pillar” development goals (areas for ecological civilization, green industry development, sci-tech innovation, park city, urban-rural integration, and a pillar of the Three Gorges core urban area). Secretary Qin Changde also expressed wishes to further strengthen friendly cooperation with countries and regions in industry development, trade services, rural revitalization, and cultural and people-to-people exchanges to promote high-quality development with high-level opening-up.

Li Maotao, Deputy Secretary of the CPC Yunyang County Committee and Governor of the County Government, briefed that Yunyang has been taking the “Three Parks and Four Belts” (three agricultural industrial parks + four demo belts of smart and digital agriculture, citrus industry, industrial integration, and farming culture) and “1-6-5-0” (1 demo town for urban-rural development; 6 towns for rural revitalization and county-level key assistance; 50 villages for county- and township-level demonstration and county-level key assistance) as demonstrative strategies to comprehensively drive the development of modern agriculture and rural revitalization. The Loquat Festival enables Yunyang to fully absorb advanced concepts in agricultural and rural modernization at home and abroad, and provides opportunities to engage in broader international exchanges and cooperation in more fields so that the local brand of “Grand Yangtze, Natural Yunyang” is further highlighted.

According to Wang Wen, as a pioneering force to implement local strategies of open development, focusing on the strategic layout of Chongqings economic and social growth, the FAO has been committed to serving the open development of the whole city in recent years by fully leveraging the foreign affairs resource pool. Especially in boosting the open development of districts and counties, the FAO helped with seeking development opportunities with international participation. Fully leveraging the roles of sister cities, consulates, foreign media, and social organizations as bridges of external exchanges, it aims to facilitate the synergy of economic and social development between relevant countries and regions and Chongqings districts and counties. This visit brought together foreign consular missions, foreign/overseas institutions and media in Chongqing to facilitate exchanges and cooperation in Yunyang. The delegates not only have witnessed Yunyangs boom in urban and rural areas, its rural revitalization, and its unique ecological beauty, but also learned about its visions for open development with meticulous planning. As one of the municipal departments to provide pair-up rural revitalization assistance for Yunyang, the FAO would continue to strengthen support and take solid measures to promote greater achievements of rural revitalization by pooling more resources using its platforms. Moreover, the FAO stands ready to facilitate more cooperation opportunities for Yunyang with more international partners, thus ushering in a new period for Yunyangs open development through in-depth mutual understanding, publicity, and assistance to this County.

The delegation attended the opening ceremony of Chongqing Yunyang Rural Revitalization and Industry Development Forum and the 15th Bayang Loquat Festival of Yunyang County. The delegates were impressed by Yunyangs urban development progress and natural sceneries. They have fully recognized Yunyangs achievements of rural revitalization and extended their willingness to offer support in areas such as bilateral exchanges and cooperation as well as external publicity and promotion. Stephen Ellison, Consul-General of the UK in Chongqing said that this visit has given the delegation a good opportunity to learn more about Chinas endeavor to reduce poverty and advance rural revitalization. They have gained a deeper understanding of Yunyang and Chongqing. This visit would help to boost further exchanges and cooperation in rural revitalization. Consul-General Ellison expressed wishes for more friends, colleagues, and businesses of the UK to visit Chongqing, Yunyang in particular. So that they can see for themselves, the vast territory and abundant resources of China, the biodiversity, the splendid landscape, and facilitate cooperation and exchanges in rural revitalization and economic development. Flerida Ann Camille P. Mayo, Consul-General of the Philippines in Chongqing, noted that she was delighted to learn that the loquat of Bayang Town have already been exported to the Philippines and expressed expectations for the Philippines and Chongqing to usher in a new stage of cooperation in fields such as culture and logistics. By Acknowledging that Yunyang endeavors to develop sectors such as tourism and environmental protection, and that dinosaur fossils had been discovered here, Takada Mari, Consul-General of Japan in Chongqing, expressed hopes to strengthen cooperation in environmental protection and dinosaur fossil conservation.

During the event, the FAO and Chongqing Nonggao Group signed an agreement to use Bayang loquat and other agricultural products as designated gifts for Chongqings official foreign affairs events. In addition, the Yunyang County Commission of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the Rural Revitalization Strategy Research Institute of Southwest University signed a project agreement for the Bayang-Renhe Rural Complex Municipal-level Agricultural Science and Technology Park.
