The Binhai New Area (BNA) in the port city of Tianjin got a boost in March 2006 when Premier Wen Jiabao singled it out and vowed to promote its development in his government work report. With an area of 2,270 square kilometers and a population of 1.4 million, BNA is a hard running growth engine for north China and widely expected to match the economic miracle achieved by Shanghai's Pudong New Area.
