Three phase expansion mooted for CHDZ industrial sectors

Following the implementation of its large-scale expansion plan, the Changchun Hi-tech Development Zone (CHDZ), one of the nation's top 10 State-level hi-tech zones, is expected to enjoy substantial growth over the next few years.

The key elements of the new plan include the consolidation of the existing southern area and the enhanced development of its newly established northern zone.

The northern area of the hi-tech zone, located in the northeastern part of Changchun, the capital city of northeast China's Jilin province, has been approved by the provincial government as a pioneering zone for a new strategic program in the province - the integrated development plan of Changchun, Jilin City and the Tumen River area. The Tumen River area, which covers territories in China, Russia and North Korea, is already part of a United States-sponsored development program, targeting large-scale regional economic cooperation in Northeast Asia.
