They are at the forefront of opening up, becoming the main source of scientific and technological innovation and the advanced leader of the system of scientific and technological innovation.

Third, the key role of important functional areas is more obvious. The five provinces in the five provinces of Heilongjiang, Henan, Shandong, Anhui, and Jilin produced 560.78 billion kg in 2021, exceeding 40%of the country, effectively maintaining national food security. A number of comprehensive development and utilization bases for energy resources have been built in key areas, and domestic energy supply guarantee levels have been improved.

The fourth is to achieve revitalization and development in special types.

The transformation and development of resource -based areas has been further promoted, and the output rate of resource -based cities has increased by more than 36%.

Fifth, the level of basic public services has continued to improve. Compulsory education resources in various places are basically balanced, and the control of dropouts will be dynamically clear. The compulsory educator in the east, middle, and western regions is basically flat, and the gap between the area of ​​living rooms has been significantly reduced. Basic medical security is fully covered, and the number of beds per 1,000 people in the central and western regions exceeds the eastern region. The number of basic pension insurance for urban and rural residents exceeded 540 million, and the number of basic medical insurers exceeded 1.36 billion.

The growth rate of the total retail sales of per capita consumer goods in the central and western regions is faster than that of the eastern region. The eastern industries continue to transfer to the central and western regions. The employment opportunities and attractiveness of the central and western regions have continued to increase, and the number of migration across provinces has decreased significantly.

Xiao Weiming said that the practice of these 10 years has brought an important inspiration, that is, we must respect the objective laws, and we cannot simply require regional regions to reach the same level in economic development. Instead, we must pay attention to the comparative advantages of various regions and promote relatively balanced balance in development.

In addition, it is necessary to make overall development and security, enhance the economic and population carrying capacity of economic development, and enhance the functions of other regions in ensuring food security, ecological security, and frontier security, and form a regional economic layout of complementary and high -quality development.
