From April 22 to 24, accompanied by Yuan Jiajun, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee, and Hu Henghua, mayor of Chongqing, Xi Jinping went deep into logistics parks, urban communities, digital city operation and governance centers, etc. for investigation and research. On the afternoon of 22nd, Xi Jinping first inspected Chongqing International Logistics Hub Park. He came to the Chongqing Waterless Port Operation and Dispatch Center of the Western Land Sea New Channel to listen to the report on the construction of the new channel. Xi Jinping stressed that logistics is the "muscle" of the real economy. The construction of a new land sea corridor in the western region is of great significance for promoting the formation of a pattern of opening up to the outside world with "linkage between land and sea, and mutual assistance between east and west". All relevant parties should work together to build and operate this landmark project well, and drive the high-level opening up of the western and inland regions to the outside world. Logistics parks should actively utilize advanced technology, continuously innovate intermodal transportation models, improve scientific management levels, and play a greater role in building a modern logistics system. Logistics is crucial for promoting the opening up and development of the western region. We must continue to work hard, continuously create new achievements, and make new contributions. Xi Jinping also listened to the report on Chongqing's efforts to promote the construction of Chengdu Chongqing double city economic circle, and visited the demonstration of Chongqing's achievements in scientific and technological innovation and industrial development.

Chongqing and Sichuan should closely cooperate, continuously improve their development level, and jointly sing the "Two Cities Record" of the western region in the new era. The pillar industry is the main battlefield for developing new quality productive forces. The manufacturing industry in Chongqing has its own structural characteristics and corresponding advantages. We hope that Chongqing can firmly grasp the "bull nose" of technological innovation, leverage its advantages, fill in its shortcomings, seize the present and seek the future, and work steadfastly and persistently to promote the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry. The Minzhu Village Community in Xiejiawan Street, Jiulongpo District is an old residential area. In early 2022, a renovation project was launched and included in the national pilot program.

He also walked into the community cafeteria and had friendly exchanges with the people eating, encouraging the community cafeteria to achieve sustainable development.

Realize one-stop service for social security services in Guangdong and Macao

Recently, Macau resident Zhang Tao logged into the "Electronic Taxation Bureau" of the Hengqin Guangdong Macao Deep Cooperation Zone and processed both Macau Central Provident Fund contributions (Macau social security public service matters) and mainland individual social security contributions, marking the first time that social security services in Guangdong and Macau have achieved cross-border one-stop processing. "I work in Macau and reside in mainland China. It was my first time trying to apply for social security services online in Guangdong and Macau, and I didn't expect it to be so convenient. Whether in mainland China or Macau, as long as there is internet access, I can handle it, greatly improving the experience and efficiency of cross-border livelihood services," said Zhang Tao. It is reported that there are over 60000 Macau residents like Zhang Tao who are insured in mainland China. The Taxation Bureau of the Hengqin Guangdong Macao Deep Cooperation Zone of the State Administration of Taxation has added entry points for the processing of social security services in Macau using the new "Electronic Taxation Bureau" currently being promoted nationwide. During the Tax Promotion Month, it has carried out precise publicity for Macau residents living and working in Hengqin. The insured can click on the "Macau Social Security Business" module to navigate to the Macau Social Security Fund processing portal, achieving automatic switching of online transactions. It is reported that since the establishment of the Hengqin Guangdong Macao Deep Cooperation Zone, it has continuously strengthened cooperation with Macau's social and livelihood, and promoted the orderly connection of public services and social security systems with Macau. This time, we have achieved cross-border "one network access" for social security services, further forming a Guangdong Macao social security service system with online and offline interaction and three-dimensional integration, bringing residents of Guangdong and Macao a better and more convenient experience of livelihood services. Next, the Hengqin Taxation Bureau will further deepen the reform of tax collection and management, and continuously improve the level of cross-border tax and fee services. (Lai Xin She)
