What they say

The integrated and synergetic development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province has improved local people's lives, allowing them to have a sense of having benefited from the initiative. Residents in Beijing have acquired more green fields, better public services and resources. For those living in Tianjin and Hebei, the strategy has generated more jobs, and better links have made travel and transport more convenient.

Cai Qi, Beijing Mayor

The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei synergetic development requires administrative and social management models different from existing ones. We have to carry out reconstructive reforms and promote innovation in administration, and break down all barriers that stop market integration.
