This year, Yichang will take the “Major Project Construction Year” initiative as the driving force, focusing on the development of key and leading industries to accelerate the establishment of a modern industrial system. The municipal funding enterprises are expected to achieve a year-on-year investment growth of over 10%, with 127 ongoing projects and 114 new projects to commence, for which industrial investment will account for no less than 60%. Efforts will also be made to secure 6 billion yuan in policy-based funding and strive for more projects to be included in the national-level project portfolio. Prioritizing the industrial chain investment initiative, Yichang aims to achieve an annual investment attraction target of 44 billion yuan. (Reporter/He Guanying, Correspondent/Ye Zhengguo)
