湖北在“建成支点,走在前列”的征程中,为进一步发挥促进中部地区崛起重要战略支点的作用,必须对接和深度融入“一带一路”国家倡议,进一步扩大对内对外双向开放,加快建成内陆开放新格局中的重要一极。近几年,湖北采取了一系列举措,大力实施开放先导战略,参与“一带一路”建设取得了显著成效,但开放型经济仍是湖北经济发展中的短板,存在外贸产品竞争力不强、外经合作层次仍需提升、开放结构不优、发展不均衡、外向型企业实力较弱等问题。湖北应从培育优势产业、加快通道建设、实现经贸“优进优出”、拓展投资合作领域等方面着力,积极参与“一带一路”建设,推动湖北经济在更高层次、更宽领域和更高水平上开放发展。
In its journey of “Building a Fulcrum and Taking the Forefront”,Hubei Province must comprehensively and thoroughly integrate itself into the Belt and Road Initiative so as to give full play to its role as an important strategic fulcrum for the rise of the central region. Hubei Province must further expand opening up both internally and externally and speeding up in fulfilling its role of an important pole in the new pattern of inland area opening up to the outside world. In recent years,Hubei Province has taken a series of measures to vigorously implement the guiding strategy of opening up and made great achievements under the Belt and Road Initiative. However,the open economy is still a weak spot in the economic development of Hubei Province. The competitiveness of foreign trade products is not strong,the level of foreign economic cooperation is not high,the opening up structure is not good,the development is not balanced and the strength of export-oriented enterprises is weak. Hubei Province should focus its efforts on cultivating advantageous industries,speeding up the construction of channels,choosing superior technology,equipments and parts as subjects of export and import,and expanding areas of investment cooperation. Hubei Province should actively participate in “the Belt and Road” construction and promote the open development of its economy at a higher level,in a wider range and under a better standard.
