The problem can be traced back to the then national coastal development. At that time, the state gave Lianyungang the opportunity to develop its port vigorously. However, due to Lianyungang's own policies and the fact that the Jiangsu provincial government paid little attention to the construction of northern Jiangsu at that time, Lianyungang faced complicated factors in Shandong. We can see that Xuzhou is the victim. At that time, Xuzhou's transportation capacity ranked in the top three, but it retreated out of many places in a few years. As a city with very good location factors, Xuzhou has actually regressed. At that time, the port of Lianyungang ranked eighth in the country, and it became 13 in a few years. At that time, the goods from Korea and Japan, which were more than 65,438+10,000 tons in Lianyungang in the 1990s, could not be unloaded and sent directly to Shanghai, and the opportunity was gone. In fact, the role of the new Eurasian continental bridge is not very great. Think about it, some countries will be more troublesome to clear customs. Now the 300,000-ton port is under construction, but the state has repeatedly emphasized the development of Lianyungang, and the provincial government only promised, but the final funds are still in southern Jiangsu. The difficulty of Lianyungang's development can be imagined, and the difference in economic aggregate. Looking at the natural environment of the port, it is not ideal to dock a big ship. Just look at the natural conditions in Qingdao. Lianyungang has just begun to divide its location and re-plan its area, because the small main city also restricts economic development. A good port needs a large economic hinterland with a pitifully small population. The urban population is less than 6.5438+0 million, and the urban population of Nanjing is nearly 5 million. China developed by population strategy, and it is impossible without population. Personally, I don't think Lianyungang can be planned forever. I also saw that two new coastal areas the size of Macao were to be filled in the sea. How well you speak! However, there are too many problems to be solved at present. First of all, the leading group did not attach importance to development and construction. Only a good leading group can promote urban development, and the quality of citizens needs to be improved. It is very important to attract investment vigorously. Now the urban construction is a bit chaotic. Take hygiene for example, it's really bad. Directly affect the image of the whole city. Look forward to the better development of Lianyungang!
