On December 14, the Information Office of Guangdong provincial government held a press conference to introduce the main contents of the 14th five year plan for marine economic development of Guangdong Province (hereinafter referred to as the plan). The plan proposes that by 2025, Guangdong will achieve an average annual growth of 6.5% in marine GDP, and continue to rank first in the country. Build 10 high-quality marine economic development demonstration areas and build five marine industrial clusters of more than 100 billion level.
Build a new growth pole on the East and West wings
Guangdong is a large marine province with vast sea areas, long coastlines, extensive beaches, superior harbors and many islands.
According to Qu Jiashu, deputy director of Guangdong Provincial Department of natural resources and director of Guangdong Provincial Oceanic Administration, in order to strengthen the spatial response of the regional development pattern of "one core, one belt and one area", Guangdong will build a marine economic spatial layout of "one core, two poles, three belts and four areas" integrating land and sea during the "14th five year plan".
Among them, "one core" refers to efforts to improve the development level of the core area of the Pearl River Delta; "Two poles" means taking Shantou and Zhanjiang as the poles to accelerate the development of marine economy in the East and West wings; "Three zones" refer to the overall development of three marine protection and development zones: Coastal Zone, offshore sea area and far-reaching sea area; "Four zones" refer to four types of high-quality marine economic development demonstration zones, including marine high-end industrial agglomeration, marine scientific and technological innovation guidance, marine economic cooperation in the Great Bay area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and marine ecological civilization construction.
Specifically, Guangdong will strive to build a new growth pole on the East and West wings and build the coastal economic belt into the main battlefield of Guangdong's development in the new era.
According to Su Weiguang, the second level inspector of Guangdong Development and Reform Commission, Guangdong will accelerate the improvement of the development level of Shantou and Zhanjiang provincial sub centers. Under the guidance of the construction of provincial sub centers, vigorously cultivate the development poles of the East and West wings of the coastal economic belt.
Su Weiguang said that in the future, Guangdong will support Shantou in building an important gateway to the maritime Silk Road and a modern marine city. At the same time, build a comprehensive transportation system with Shantou high-speed railway station and Shantou port as the hub, and improve the shipping infrastructure and collection and distribution capacity of Shantou port. Build Shantou offshore wind power innovation Shenzhen New Industries Biomedical Engineering Co.Ltd(300832) Park and build a 10 million KW offshore wind power base in eastern Guangdong.
At the same time, support Zhanjiang to accelerate the construction of marine economic development demonstration zone and create a modern marine city, promote the construction of port dredging railway and highway, and develop offshore industries such as marine equipment and steel. Promote the in-depth cooperation between Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Zhanjiang and Shantou, and build a dynamic mechanism of "dual core + Dual sub centers". Strengthen the radiation leading role of Shantou and Zhanjiang, plan to build Shantou Chaojie metropolitan area and Zhanmao metropolitan area, and vigorously promote the urbanization of Shantou Chaojie and the integrated development of Zhanmao.
Cultivate and expand marine emerging industries
Guangdong Province has a large marine economy and a complete range of marine industries, but the overall structure of marine economy is still dominated by traditional marine industries. In 2020, the added value of coastal tourism, marine transportation and marine fishery will account for 83% of the added value of 12 major marine industries in the province. Although offshore wind power, marine engineering equipment, marine electronic information, marine biomedicine and other emerging industries are developing rapidly, they are still in the cultivation stage.
Against this background, the plan proposes to cultivate seven emerging marine industries such as wind power, marine engineering equipment, marine biomedicine and natural gas hydrate, and promote the transformation and upgrading of four traditional advantageous marine industries such as marine oil and gas chemical industry, marine ships, marine transportation and marine fisheries.
At the same time, give full play to the advantages of Guangdong Province in modern service industry, and optimize and expand three major marine service industries, such as marine tourism, blue finance and shipping services. Promote the development of Marine Information Industry and accelerate the deep integration of modern digital technology and marine industry. At the same time, we will focus on cultivating a number of marine leading enterprises and build five marine industrial clusters of more than 100 billion level, such as offshore wind power, offshore oil and gas chemical industry, offshore engineering equipment, marine tourism and modern marine fisheries.
Accelerate the development of blue financial industry
The plan proposes that Guangdong should accelerate the development of blue financial industry. Banking financial institutions with conditions are encouraged to set up marine financial departments to carry out mortgage loans and pledge loans for the use rights of sea areas and uninhabited islands, ships under construction and ocean going ships.
At the same time, we will promote the establishment of the international marine development bank and actively strive to create a "China blue financial reform pilot zone" centered on Shenzhen Qianhai. Connect with capital trading platforms such as Shenzhen Stock Exchange and South Center of Shanghai Stock Exchange, support sea related enterprises to list and issue debt financing in domestic and foreign multi-level capital markets, and guide and attract all kinds of capital to increase equity investment in sea related enterprises. Explore the development of marine related financial products such as option futures and emission trading. Encourage the development of marine engineering equipment and ship financial leasing, and support sea related financial leasing companies to become bigger and stronger. We will accelerate the development of insurance businesses such as shipping, coastal tourism, marine environment and overseas investment.
