Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area's "hard connectivity" represented by the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed railway has taken shape; Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area's "soft connection" with the system and rules as the core is steadily advancing, and it has been transformed into new kinetic energy for the high-quality development of all parties in Greater Bay Area.
On July 1 1, an agreement on mutual recognition of professional qualifications of engineers and technicians in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area was signed in Guangzhou, and Greater Bay Area will mutually recognize the professional qualifications of many engineers and technicians in construction engineering, measurement and control, quality management and so on.
"This is an important measure to explore the * * * mode of human resources construction in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, which will smooth the orderly flow of engineering and technical talents in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and provide guarantee for the development of engineering and technical talents in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao." Feng, full-time vice chairman of Guangdong Association for Science and Technology, said.
One country, two systems, three customs territories, three currencies ... The differences in institutional rules have always been an important obstacle to the integrated development of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. It is an important and urgent task for Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to break the institutional barriers, realize the docking of rules and transform "institutional differences" into "institutional interests".
"high or low" to build a century-old project
Driving on the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, you can see the sky and the sea. After 20 months of trial operation of the bridge, Lin Ming, chief engineer of the island tunnel project of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, became increasingly reluctant. After completing the final accounts at the end of this year, he will leave the bridge that accompanies him day and night.
"A small step for the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is a big step for the integration and development of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area!" Lin Ming said.
As a pilot and experimental field project in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is the first cross-border project across Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao under the framework of "one country, two systems" in China. The design, construction, environmental protection and various standards and specifications involved in bridge construction are different in three places.
"The service life of the concrete used for the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is 100 years in the mainland and 120 years in Hong Kong. Finally, the bridge adopted the Hong Kong standard; In terms of lane width, Hong Kong's specification is 3.667 meters, while mainland's is 3.75 meters, and the bridge finally adopts mainland's standard ... "Zhu Yongling, then director of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Administration, said that the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge had been established at the feasibility demonstration stage, following the principle of" if it is high, it will be low ",integrating the engineering technical standards and specifications of the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao, and forming a technical standard system for the project. This technical standard covers the requirements of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge project in the design, construction and operation stages.
"High is not low" is not only the standard choice in the construction of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, but also the criterion for breaking the institutional barriers and realizing the docking of rules in the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
The Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed rail is also one of the important projects of "hard connection" in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. At the beginning of its opening, West Kowloon Station became a "punch point" for mainland and Hong Kong tourists. The convenient and efficient customs clearance method of "one place and two inspections" not only shortens the customs clearance time in two places by half, but also changes the work and lifestyle of people in two places.
"The company's research and development location is in Guangzhou University Town, the production base is in Shunde, and its international business is connected to Hong Kong and Macao. All this is seamlessly connected through the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed railway and the Guangzhou-Zhuhai intercity railway. " In Chuangzhi Building in Guangzhou University Town, Chen, the head of Hong Kong and Macao youth "double innovation" enterprise Aromatherapy Shijia (Guangzhou) Biotechnology Co., Ltd., said that the integration of the Bay Area has connected the entrepreneurs of the three enterprises into an inseparable whole, the factors of production are convenient to flow, teams scattered in various places can be at your fingertips, and various scientific research infrastructures are readily available ... "Such conditions are unimaginable, and Greater Bay Area has given us young people from Hong Kong and Macao the opportunity to show their talents." Chen said to:
Optimize the business environment and enter the "Bay Area Time"
On May 30th, 20 19, the Bay Area Integrated Management System was launched in Nanhai District, Foshan City. Zheng, the head of Hong Kong resident and Sports Association Co., Ltd., printed the business license with the registered address of Gonghe Space in Nanhai District, Sanlong Bay, Foshan, which is located on the 9th floor of Hailang Building, Xingye Street, Kwun Tong, Hong Kong. This is the first case in which Hong Kong and the Mainland use self-service terminals to realize "cross-border communication" of government services.
While promoting "one-line communication" and "cross-border communication" on the Internet, Greater Bay Area has gradually introduced "one-window communication" of cross-departmental work results, realizing "running at most once" in the whole process of starting a business. On March 16, Li, the person in charge of Guangzhou Medical Technology Co., Ltd., entered the entrepreneurial information and submitted the form through the unified "Entrepreneurship-Netcom Platform", and electronically signed it through face recognition. Two hours later, he received the newly registered paper business license, seal and invoice at one time.
"As far as the convenience of starting a business is concerned, all parties in Greater Bay Area are on par with the world-class level." Li Ding, deputy director of Guangzhou Municipal Market Supervision Administration, said that "starting a business" is the first door for commercial entities to enter the market, and the convenience of starting a business is an important indicator to optimize the business environment. Since the beginning of this year, the Guangzhou Municipal Market Supervision Bureau, in conjunction with relevant departments, has launched a series of reform measures in response to the World Bank's business environment assessment indicators, achieving the goal of "one form declaration, one link processing, and the fastest half-day completion", integrating the links that originally needed to be handled by various departments in one step, and providing Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area entrepreneurs with a convenient service of "one window, zero cost".
With the implementation of the Outline of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Development Plan, it is time to optimize the business environment and enter the Bay Area. Greater Bay Area 1 1 city is becoming an important space carrier for the country to build a world-class urban agglomeration and participate in global competition. "In the process of continuously expanding reform and opening up and optimizing the business environment, especially in commercial registration, corporate services, capital flow, etc., the nine cities in the Pearl River Delta should learn from Hong Kong and Macao to form a linkage effect and achieve a chess game in the entire Bay Area." Cao Dahua, deputy director of the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission and executive deputy director of the Greater Bay Area Office of Guangdong Province, said that in terms of the coordination of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area rules, Guangdong has adopted an active learning attitude, accelerated the establishment of an institutional system in line with international high-standard investment and trade rules, and steadily promoted the interconnection and infiltration of rules.
"Made in the Bay Area" promotes high-quality development
A few days ago, the list of the first batch of enterprises applying for "Made in the Bay Area" was announced. Guangzhou Brand Quality Innovation Promotion Association and Hong Kong Quality Assurance Bureau were the first batch of 12 certified enterprises such as Guangzhou Libai, Oupai Home, Kadilian and Hengjie Sanitary Ware.
"'Made in the Bay Area' is based on the advantages of internationalization and authoritative position of China and Hongkong in the field of evaluation and certification, combined with the manufacturing industry in Greater Bay Area, to establish a unified certification mark and a series of evaluation standards." Huang Chunlin, secretary-general of Guangzhou Brand Quality Innovation Promotion Association, said that "Made in the Bay Area" will build a regional brand in Greater Bay Area, help to cultivate a world-class manufacturing brand, realize the global influence and leadership of Greater Bay Area's manufacturing industry, provide new kinetic energy for the high-quality development of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao from a new level, and promote the integrated development of Greater Bay Area.
In recent years, the mainland manufacturing industry has made great achievements, but some specifications have not been revised and updated for many years, which can not well reflect the current level of scientific and technological progress. Backward standards and specifications may cause quality problems. Chen Kaixuan, president of Guangzhou Brand Quality Innovation Promotion Association, said that "Made in the Bay Area", as the first group standard for brand quality evaluation in Greater Bay Area, will give full play to Hong Kong's unique advantages and rich experience in international evaluation and certification, and make the "Made in the Bay Area" brand synonymous with the quality manufacturing brand in China.
He Zhicheng, vice chairman of Hong Kong Quality Assurance Bureau, believes that the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is a rare historical opportunity. The "Made in the Bay Area" project is a good start. The strong complementarity between Greater Bay Area's manufacturing advantages and Hongkong's international certification standard system will achieve the effect of 1+ 1 > 2 and export high-quality China-made brands to the world.
