President Xi Jinping announced at the opening ceremony of the first China International Import Expo that we will support integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta region and make it a national strategy.The purpose of upgrading regional strategy to national strategy is to promote the formation of unified regional market, and ultimately the formation of national unified market. The Yangtze River Delta region has many advantages, such as rich talents, high level of science and technology, developed manufacturing industry, relatively complete industrial chain and large market potential. It is fully capable of exploring the formation mechanism of the national unified market and providing experience for promoting the coordinated development of the whole country.Integrated development is an advanced form of regional coordinated development, which can not be achieved overnight. In the face of all kinds of obvious and invisible obstacles in the development of Yangtze River Delta integration, we should solve the easy ones first and then the difficult ones, promote the reform in an orderly manner and make breakthroughs in key areas.High quality development must be based on integrated development. We should break administrative barriers through integration, let elements flow smoothly in a wider range, give full play to the comparative advantages of various regions, and promote high-quality development.
