In terms of development, although Yangzhou is not as good as Kunshan and Xiaoshan at present, from the perspective of prospects, Yangzhou will be the economic engine of Jiangsu. The traffic in Yangzhou has been greatly improved. Yangzhou Port is a national first-class open port with a national export processing zone. Kunshan and Xiaoshan are saturated.
In the final analysis, the competitiveness of a city is the competitiveness of culture and the competitiveness of service industry. In developed countries, industry accounts for only 30% of GDP, and service accounts for 70%, while China is just the opposite. Yangzhou has a long history and is the ancient economic center of China. In the Tang and Qing Dynasties, Yangzhou's economy accounted for more than 70% of China. Yangzhou, with a history of 2,500 years, is comparable to Kunshan and Xiaoshan in terms of historical, cultural and humanistic heritage. Yangzhou's current business is also above Kunshan and Xiaoshan.
In terms of residence, Yangzhou has won the United Nations Habitat Award, China Habitat Environment Award, National Garden City, National Health City, Top Ten Leisure Cities in China, and the most attractive city in China, while Yangzhou is the only attractive city in China. Isn't Yangzhou inferior to Kunshan Xiaoshan in terms of living?
