Bauhinia Magazine:
It has come to our knowledge that, in the recently-released master plan on the development of Hainan free trade port, many policies concerning trade, investment, finance and other aspects have been mentioned. How will the leading group office implement and facilitate these policies in the master plan? Thank you.
Lin Nianxiu:
Thank you for your question. In order to strengthen leadership over the development of Hainan free trade port, the CPC Central Committee set up the Leading Group for for Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Opening up in Hainan Province. Its office is placed in the National Development and Reform Commission, and will take charge of daily work. To better implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important instructions and facilitate the master plan, the leading group office will further act as a "service provider" and an "accelerator". We will work to provide various services, coordinate relevant parties in a timely manner and exercise strong oversight. We will work closely with Hainan province and relevant government bodies to do the job well. The work of the leading group office in the next step can be briefly concluded in the following four aspects:
First, the list-based management will be strengthened, and the accountability of every task should be clearly stated. The master plan has already been published. Next, we will detail every task specified in the plan, and make arrangements for annual key tasks, including specific requirements, work division and accountability, forms of results, and deadlines. We will make ledgers and advance each and every task to the letter so that we can effectively implement them with practical achievements. We know from the master plan that much work needs to be done to develop Hainan free trade port, thus this project requires arduous efforts. It will be very challenging during the process. The leading group office will list every task and carry out effective efforts to make sure nothing is overlooked.
Second, we will strengthen our study and research efforts and introduce forward-looking policy recommendations. Building a free trade port in Hainan is a new exploration, during which challenges will inevitably occur. Therefore, we think it is particularly important to carry out study and research. The office will regularly visit Hainan to carry out field studies, listen to the opinions of frontline workers, identify and analyze potential problems, and provide suggestions accordingly. We plan to arrange for some staff to work on Hainan island during most of the year to carry out field studies. This is not just an empty slogan; it is tangible work. We will listen to the suggestions of the local party committee and government as well as the demands and voices from market players, especially entrepreneurs. We will listen to people's expectations, collect first-hand materials, and make policy recommendations to the central government.
Third, we will strengthen coordination and create a synergistic policy. The construction of the Hainan FTP is a systematic project, which involves many fields and aspects, and requires coordination and cooperation. The office of the leading group will further improve service and actively communicate with Hainan province and relevant departments. In particular, we will go to the frontline to coordinate on-site and remove the last crucial hurdle for policy enforcement. To speed up the construction of the Hainan FTP, we will make special arrangements and open a green channel to ensure every task is implemented with the fastest speed, the highest efficiency, and the best service.
Fourth, we will strengthen supervision and inspection to ensure policies are fully implemented. The office will track the implementation of the work in a timely manner, coordinate the completion of key tasks on a quarterly basis, carefully investigate inadequacies in work implementation, and introduce improvement measures item by item. At the same time, the office will also establish a work notification system, and particular supervision will be given over the handling of major tasks. It will report important matters to the leading group in a timely manner.
To sum up, under the unified leadership, the office will actively cooperate with relevant departments and Hainan province and promote the construction of the Hainan FTP. Thank you.
