At the beginning of the Spring Festival of the the Year of the Loong Year, many places across the country actively deployed to expand effective investment, and unveiled the list of major projects in 2024. Policy support has been strengthened to improve efficiency, with a group of large-scale, structurally sound, and dynamic projects starting construction, striving to make a successful start to the economy throughout the year. On February 18th, the Qingdao SCO Hub Port New City Infrastructure and Supporting Project (Phase I) with a total investment of 3.03 billion yuan started construction, and the on-site machinery roared, creating a busy scene. "The project will further enhance the comprehensive service function of the park through the construction of six roads and supporting projects, build a coordinated development of the transportation and economic circle, and assist the Shanghai Cooperation International Hub Port in becoming an important window for international exchange and exhibition in the Shanghai Cooperation Demonstration Zone," said Ma Fang, Deputy General Manager of China Railway Construction. According to data, as of February 19th, China Railway Construction has 436 ongoing projects, overseas projects will not be suspended during the Spring Festival, more than 60% of domestic projects have completed and resumed work and production, and more than 13000 labor workers have returned. Just after the Spring Festival holiday, various regions have been working hard to start a wave of construction: in Jiangxi, 1139 major projects in the first quarter have started construction, with a total investment of 680.5 billion yuan; In Zhejiang, 333 major projects with a total investment of 977 billion yuan have been started, put into operation, and put into operation; In Guangdong, Foshan and other places, concentrated construction projects for the Chinese New Year have been launched one after another... Major projects are the "ballast stone" of economic development and an important lever for expanding effective investment. In the deployment of this year's economic work, the Central Economic Work Conference in 2023 pointed out the need to expand effective investment. Expanding effective investment is not only an important way to expand domestic demand, but also an inherent requirement for promoting high-quality economic development and the transformation of economic growth momentum. On the one hand, it is necessary to further play the guiding and driving role of government investment, focus on major infrastructure construction, and strengthen investment in areas such as scientific and technological innovation, industrial upgrading, and people's livelihood; On the other hand, we should pay more attention to stimulating the vitality of private investment and enhancing the confidence of private capital Fan Ruoying, a researcher at the Bank of China Research Institute, said.
