5. Existing problems

The industrial parks have poor infrastructure due to a shortage of funding for infrastructure construction. Also, with a limited number of projects, the industrial parks are having difficulties attracting investment. In the first half of 2017, the industrial parks in Hechi introduced 13 new projects, yet some industrial parks didn't introduce any new projects and the development of the parks lacked momentum. In addition, the industrial parks’ industrial structure needs to be improved and the scale of their projects needs to be increased. The total value of the parks' products is also generally low. Furthermore, companies are facing financial trouble.

6. Tasks for the latter half of 2017

Firstly, industrial parks will make greater efforts to attract business and investment. They will introduce large-scale projects with great development potential and advanced technology.

Secondly, industrial parks will press ahead with infrastructure construction. They will do everything possible to obtain funding to improve infrastructure and facilities, as well as build environmentally friendly parks.

Thirdly, industrial parks will offer follow-up service to already introduced projects and help companies solve problems in order to guarantee that projects operate smoothly, which will stimulate the development of the industrial parks' economies.

Hechi is located in the northwestern part of Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region and the southern foothills of the Yungui Plateau.
