High-speed railway is a lifeline nowadays for China's economic development, and Guizhou is entering the high-speed era with the opening of the Guiyang-Guangzhou high-speed railway at the end of the year.
"Talking about Guizhou's efforts in building the Pan-PRD economic belt, the development of a high-speed rail network is the key. We shall strengthen the construction of a transportation network by building seamless connections between high-speed railway, expressways, airports and water transportation," said Chen.
Also, development and ecology are very important for Guizhou. On the one hand, Guizhou is currently developing the electronic information industry, medical and healthcare industry, and cultural tourism industry. On the other hand, it shall never forget sustainable development and environmental protection.
