The NETDA will reportedly move to address a number of matters concerning the lives of locals, solve the problems and boost the sense of happiness and security of residents.

The NETDA, in a bid to expand its opening-up, has also released a checklist relating to its high-level economic development.

Promote planning, development of parks

It will focus on its goal of building a first-class development zone in the Yangtze River Delta region. This will be done through industrial modernization, the integration of industry and city – as well as the integration of cross-river development and the planning and construction of parks with distinct characteristics. It is expected that this process will be comprehensively launched and the industrial agglomeration capacity of the parks will be enhanced.
