Yunyan district experiences high-quality growth

Yunyan district of Guiyang in Southwest China's Guizhou province has made strong progress in meeting the targets it set in 2022 to contribute to the building of a strong provincial capital.

The gross regional product in the first three quarters of 2022 was 60.51 billion yuan ($8.79 billion), the highest in the city.

In the first 10 months of last year, the district invested 15.6 billion yuan in fixed assets, and the actual investment in industrial projects amounted to 5.9 billion yuan, according to official statistics.

The strong performance is a result of the district's efforts to advance high-quality development, officials said.

While developing the electronic information manufacturing industry and strengthening the tourism market, the district has also worked to improve the business environment by cutting taxes and fees and mapping out policies to help local businesses overcome pandemic-related difficulties.

In 2022, the district stepped up urban construction and took on a new look thanks to local renovation efforts. With the increased efforts being made in environmental protection, the living environment has continued to improve.

Upholding a people-centered development philosophy, the district government has worked to address the immediate concerns of locals, and their well-being has improved markedly. Concrete efforts have been made to address important problems such as employment, education and healthcare.

In addition, the district government has also strengthened reform and innovation to stimulate the market and has made contributions to the district's high-quality growth.
