As we all know, the territorial spatial planning is a new plan that combines main functional area planning, land-use planning and urban-rural planning. How can we leverage the new advantages of this multiple-plan coordination in territorial spatial planning to create new driving forces and new advantages for high-quality urban and rural development? Thank you.
Zhuang Shaoqin:
Mr. Wang has just briefly introduced the achievements of the multiple-plan coordination. Multiple-plan coordination is not just about resolving the contradictions and conflicts between the different original plans, and integrating the advantages of existing plans. It should also be based on the new development stage, implement new development philosophy, better support the construction of a new development pattern and promote high-quality development in urban and rural areas.
First, the advantage of putting ecology first and pursuing green development. The national territorial space planning that integrates multiple plans into a single masterplan is a new plan for the new era of ecological conservation. We must make development plans from the perspective of harmony between humanity and nature, creating new impetus and advantages. In recent years, we have designated "three types of territorial spaces and three types of control lines" in territorial space planning, namely urban space, agricultural space and ecological space, with three red lines for urban development boundaries, permanent basic farmland and ecological conservation. The aim is to coordinate development and security, optimize the development and protection of territorial space, guide urban and rural areas to build spatial patterns that save resources and protect the environment, and accelerate the building of a new path of high-quality development oriented toward prioritizing eco-environmental conservation and green development, thereby further enhancing the resilience of territorial space and enhancing regional carrying capacity and sustainability.
Second, the advantage of regional coordination and open development. We have implemented the functional zoning strategy, major regional strategies, coordinated regional development strategy, new urbanization strategy, rural revitalization strategy and other national strategies in a well-coordinated manner on the "one map" of territorial space planning. We have optimized the allocation of urban and rural resources and elements to form a regional integrated development pattern featuring coordinated development of large, medium and small cities and small towns, urban-rural integrated development, and two-way opening-up, as well as a multi-center, networked, open and intensive urban pattern. In this way, we can effectively support the construction of a new development pattern and promote common prosperity, enhancing overall regional coordination and competitiveness.
Third, the advantage of taking a people-centered approach and creating a high quality of life. The unified planning system has the advantages of systematic governance and source governance. In response to the people's desire for a high quality of life and particularly the needs of comprehensive development in the post-pandemic era, we must coordinate the working, living, ecological and security needs of urban and rural areas in the overall and detailed planning of territorial space. We must optimize the urban service functions and spatial structure with communities as the basic unit, and build convenient living circles for living, working, traveling, learning and elderly care. Through this "cell therapy" for cities, we can promote the treatment of "urban diseases" and effectively enhance the people's sense of fulfillment, happiness and security.
Fourth, the advantage of building a beautiful China based on the country's resources. The unified territorial space plan requires local governments to protect regional characteristics just as they protect biodiversity, to explore regional natural, historical, cultural and scenic resources, to retain unique urban "genes" such as geographical environment, cultural characteristics and architectural styles. In this way, unique local advantages will be shaped; the traditional standard industrialization approach which risks making cities and towns all look the same will be changed; and local influence, creativity and cohesion will thereby be enhanced.
Fifth, the advantage of integrating technology and policies to ensure the effective implementation of the territorial space plan. Based on the 3D Real Scene China project, we have initially established a digital and smart oversight, evaluation and early warning system for its implementation on the basic information platform for territorial space, as well as a supervision and assessment mechanism for regular examination and evaluation. These moves will ensure that high-quality urban development will come true based on the high-standard urban planning blueprint. Thank you.
