Shou Xiaoli:
I see there are two journalists whose hands are raised.
Hongxing News:
We have noticed that the third plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee proposed the requirement to improve the urban planning system. What are the MNR's considerations in implementing this? Thank you.
Liu Guohong:
Thank you. I would like to invite Mr. Wu to answer this question.
Wu Haiyang:
Thank you for your question. Let me take this question. Earlier, Mr. Liu introduced the achievements of the "multi-plan integration" reform since the third plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee. After years of effort, and particularly since the institutional reforms in 2018, the territorial spatial planning system proposed by the third plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee has largely taken shape. The third plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee has now set forth new requirements for improving the urban planning system. The MNR will remain committed to the "multi-plan integration" reform, fully utilizing the fundamental role of territorial spatial planning in promoting coordinated regional development, guiding the coordinated development of cities of different sizes and small towns, and encouraging efficient and closely knit layouts. We will focus our work on the following areas:
First, we will focus on the development of territorial spatial planning for city clusters and metropolitan areas, in order to promote the implementation of major regional strategies. We will accelerate the formulation and implementation of territorial spatial plans for regions such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the Yangtze River Delta, the Chengdu-Chongqing economic zone, and the Yellow River Basin. We will work to better leverage the influence of city clusters and metropolitan areas, strengthen spatial coordination in aspects such as regional population, resources, the environment, public services, infrastructure, urban development, and industrial and supply chains, thus creating a spatial layout featuring regional coordination and complementary functions.
Second, we will strengthen the guiding and binding role of territorial spatial planning on various specialized plans, leading urban areas toward efficient and closely knit layouts. A coordinated management system for specialized plans related to territorial space will be established to balance the spatial needs of sectors such as transportation, energy, water resources, and municipal services within a single territorial spatial planning framework. This will help resolve spatial conflicts and contradictions, and guide the formation of a spatial structure that conserves resources and protects the environment.
Third, we will promote reforms with detailed plans to create new driving forces and advantages for organic urban renewal. To adapt to the requirements of optimizing existing resources, we will explore approaches to compiling and implementing various types of specific plans, tapping into the unique features and potential of existing resources and assets. In coordination with community living circle development and the advancement of three major projects (government-subsidized housing, redevelopment of urban villages, and development of dual-use public infrastructure that can accommodate emergency needs), we will optimize existing spatial structures, enhance urban service functions, and stimulate urban development vitality, fostering new growth areas for regional development.
Additionally, we will step up efforts in establishing sound, united, well-aligned systems for regulating the use of territorial space of all types across the country and for approving territorial space plans, advance the supervision system for implementing territorial space plans, and create an efficient, unified digital governance system for territorial space. These efforts aim to transform planning blueprints into reality, supporting the construction of beautiful cities.
That's all I have to say. Thank you!
