[new ideas lead a new journey] Hainan’s demonstration of China’s reform and opening up in the new era
CCTV news (news broadcast): since the 18th CPC National Congress, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has focused on the overall situation of International China’s development, made in-depth research, overall consideration and scientific planning, and made a major decision to build a free trade port with Chinese characteristics in Hainan. The construction of Hainan free trade port has developed from scratch, flourished and achieved remarkable results. It is becoming a new open highland with a higher level of openness, a better business environment and a stronger radiation effect.
Just last month, another foreign-funded ship was registered and settled in Yangpu Port, Hainan. They value not only the preferential policies on taxes and fees of the free trade port, but also the convenience and broad prospects of domestic and foreign trade here. Like it, in just over a year, 33 international ships have chosen to be naturalized in “China Yangpu Port”, and the total tonnage of international ships in Hainan has jumped to the second in China. In 2021, the total import and export trade of Yangpu Port reached 36.69 billion yuan, an increase of more than 1100 times over a decade ago.
Now, the global influence of Hainan free trade port is increasing day by day. In the past, although it has unique location advantages and resource endowment, Hainan’s economic development once ranked behind the country because of its single industrial structure and low external relevance.
Xi Jinping general secretary is very concerned about the development of Hainan. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, he has visited Hainan many times and made instructions and instructions on building an international tourism island and promoting deeper reform and opening-up. On April 10, 2018, Xi Jinping General Secretary delivered a keynote speech at the Boao Forum for Asia, emphasizing that the door of China’s opening-up will not be closed, but will only open wider and wider! Three days later, at the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Hainan Province as a special economic zone, the Xi Jinping General Secretary solemnly announced that the CPC Central Committee had decided to support the construction of a pilot Free Trade Zone on Hainan Island and build a new open highland with a higher level of openness, a better business environment and a stronger radiation effect.
Focusing on the construction of Hainan free trade port, a series of strategic planning and top-level design have made rapid and steady progress. From the consideration and approval of multiple reform documents on the construction of Hainan free trade port by the Party Central Committee to the publication of the overall plan for the construction of Hainan free trade port, and then to the implementation of the Hainan free trade port law, the policy framework system of “four beams and eight pillars” has been fully formed.
In April 2022, Xi Jinping General Secretary visited Hainan again, emphasizing the need to accelerate the construction of a free trade port with Chinese characteristics with world influence and make Hainan a model of China’s reform and opening up in the new era.
From the shortest negative list of foreign investment access to the country’s first negative list of cross-border trade in services, to highly competitive preferential tax policies, more than 150 free trade port policies have been implemented in Hainan; Three “zero tariff” lists have been successively implemented in Hainan, covering raw and auxiliary materials, means of transportation, production equipment, etc; The import and export management policies and systems of “first-line liberalization and second-line control” have been expanded.
In 2021, the annual revenue of 11 key parks of Hainan free trade port exceeded trillion yuan, the proportion of four leading industries such as high-tech industry and modern service industry in GDP reached 70%, and the total import and export value of goods trade increased from 70.28 billion yuan in 2017 to 147.68 billion yuan in 2021, with an average annual growth of 20.4%.
The high level of openness and increasingly optimized business environment are attracting investors and builders from all over the world. From 2018 to 2021, Hainan free trade port actually used foreign capital of US $8.81 billion, with an average annual growth rate of 79.4%; In 2021, 19200 foreign trade enterprises and 497700 market entities will be newly registered.

We will optimize approval policies for coal production and project construction, implement local responsibilities for stabilizing production and ensuring supply, and fully release advanced production capacity. Through nuclear capacity increase and new production, 300 million tons of new capacity will be added this year. Using market-oriented and legal methods to guide the operation of coal prices in a reasonable range. Second, we should promote the transformation of coal-fired power units and improve energy efficiency. The scale of transformation in the whole year exceeded 220 million kilowatts.
