随着中国经济的快速发展和“一带一路”倡议的深入推进,西部地区在中国经济发展中的地位日益重要。西部物流贸易大通道作为连接中国西部地区与周边国家和地区的重要通道,对于促进西部地区经济发展、提升中国整体竞争力具有重要意义。因此,如何高水平共建西部物流贸易大通道已成为当前亟待解决的问题。本章旨在为高水平共建西部物流贸易大通道提供有益借鉴,具体从制度框架、交通网络、区域协同发展机制入手,依托数据分析,从对外贸易特征、贸易伙伴变化、物流产业发展等视角出发,总结西部物流贸易大通道的发展现状与成效,并据此揭示西部物流贸易大通道的问题与短板。研究发现,西部物流贸易大通道建设在对外贸易、物流运输、省际协作等方面均存在不少发展痛点。对外开放步伐缓慢、国际竞争加剧,对内基础设施相对落后、产业发展滞后,对高水平共建西部物流贸易大通道都产生了较大影响,解决这些发展难点自然是通道建设的必然路径。基于此,本章提出了一套有针对性的解决方案和措施:一是加强跨国协作,促进对外贸易;二是提高物流水平,畅通交通运输;三是完善协调机制,发展服务平台。只有不断推动基础设施建设、优化物流网络布局、提升服务质量和加强区域合作,才能促进西部物流贸易大通道的高水平发展,从而为中国的经济发展做出贡献。
With the rapid development of the Chinese economy and the deepening of the Belt and Road Initiative,the western region is becoming increasingly important in Chinaƴs economic development. The western logistics and trade corridor,as an important channel connecting the western region of China with neighboring countries and regions,is of great significance in promoting the economic development of the western region and enhancing Chinaƴs overall competitiveness.Therefore,how to jointly construct a high-level western logistics and trade corridor has become an urgent problem to be solved. This chapter aims to provide valuable reference for the high-level co-construction of the western logistics and trade corridor,focusing on the institutional framework,transportation network,and regional collaborative development mechanism. By relying on data analysis,it summarizes the development status and effectiveness of the western logistics and trade corridor from the perspectives of foreign trade characteristics,changes in trading partners,and the development of the logistics industry. Based on this,it reveals the problems and weaknesses of the western logistics and trade corridor. The research finds that the construction of the western logistics and trade corridor has many development difficulties in terms of foreign trade,logistics transportation,inter provincial cooperation and so on. The slow pace of opening up and intensified international competition,as well as relatively backward infrastructure and lagging industrial development internally,have had a significant impact on the high-level coconstruction of the western logistics and trade corridor. Solving these development difficulties is a necessary path for the construction of the corridor. Therefore,this chapter proposes a set of targeted solutions and measures:first,by strengthening cross-border cooperation to promote foreign trade;second,by improving the level of logistics to facilitate transportation; third,by improving coordination mechanisms and developing service platforms. Only by continuously promoting infrastructure construction,optimizing the layout of logistics networks,improving service quality,and strengthening regional cooperation,can we promote the high-level development of the western logistics and trade corridor,thus making contributions to Chinaƴs economic development.
高水平共建西部物流贸易大通道,对支撑我国对外开放新格局的作用日益凸显。当前,西部陆海新通道已基本形成东、中、西三条主干道以及铁海联运、国际铁路联运、跨境公路班车三种物流形态,且均已实现常态化运行。通道的建成将有效联通中亚和东盟市场,使中越和中欧班列实现无缝对接,为我国提供与东盟距离最短、成本最低、时间最省、效率最高的国际型贸易大通道,也为西部地区和海外市场的开放交流合作提供更广阔的空间。截至2022年,西部陆海新通道物流网络已覆盖119个国家和地区的393个港口,其正发展成为一条综合性国际大通道,以更加开放的姿态为中国乃至世界的发展带来新能量。对通道内部而言,随着通道辐射能力的不断增强,将会有越来越多的企业在通道沿线投资兴业,可极大地带动沿线贸易、产业发展,对建设现代化产业体系大有裨益。
高水平共建西部物流贸易大通道,不仅是畅通物流通道,更是构建经济走廊,其基础是路通,核心是产业,目标是共享,机制是共建。作为西部地区经济社会发展的重要引擎,高水平共建西部物流贸易大通道需要西部地区各省份齐心协力,坚持创新引领与协同高效、市场主导与政府推动,做到陆海统筹与双向互济、贯通南北与强化辐射,努力将西部陆海新通道打造成为更加开放、便捷、高效的经济走廊,促进中西部地区经济的发展和繁荣。
