Shanghai Freeport was built in 2020

"China Economic weekly" reporter Bang Jialong/Shanghai report for many mainland residents, Hong Kong is a veritable shopping paradise.　　Because in Hong Kong, the price of imported goods is much cheaper than that in the mainland, especially in goods such as luxury goods, cosmetics and digital products. The underlying reason behind the good bargains is that Hong Kong is a duty-free free port. However, from 2015 to 2020, this free port advantage in Hong Kong may be greatly weakened, as Shanghai is plotting to build a veritable freeport in the international sense.　　In addition to helping Shanghai to become an international shipping centre, the secondary effect is likely to attract residents of the Yangtze River Delta region and the northern region to spend in Shanghai. "China Economic weekly" reporter from the Shanghai Municipal Development and Reform Commission responsible person learned, although the State Council's opinion on the construction of "two centers" in Shanghai (National Hair "2009" 19th) only mentions "draw on the international free port policy, expand the function of Yangshan bonded port area", but the goal of constructing "free port" in Shanghai is clear-　　With China's first bonded port Yangshan port as the core, the construction of a free port in line with international practice, to the 35 period to extend the policy of Yangshan port to Shanghai, "three Hong Kong three areas" and the surrounding Lingang new city and other shipping services cluster area.　　SHANGHAI Freeport Strategy is divided into three steps. What is a free port?　　According to the textbook, Freeport (free port) means that all or most of the foreign goods can be duty-free access to the port, designated in a country's customs border (that is, "customs"). Of particular concern is that, in the free port, foreign goods in and out of the port, in addition to the exemption from customs duties, but also in accordance with the relevant policies and decrees of the host country, under the premise of the freedom of conversion, processing, long-term storage or sales.　　And that's why imports are cheaper in Freeport cities like Hong Kong.　　In the "2009" 19th, the article clearly proposed to "explore the establishment of international shipping development Zone" in Yangshan port, and the Shanghai municipal government has made the "free port" as the ultimate goal of the comprehensive experimental area.　　"China Economic Weekly" learned that, because the free port policy touches our tax, customs and other key policies and regulations, its process can not be achieved overnight, the Shanghai Freeport strategy will be divided into "three steps." Shanghai Municipal Development and Reform Commission, Deputy director of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission Shorin in November 30, "Shipping Financial Services International Conference 2009" made a specific introduction: "The first stage, 2009-2010, we will be issued" 2009 "19th text" can operate "content for full implementation. Phase II, 2011-2015 (' Twelve-Five ' period), we will focus on the "2009" 19th text mentioned in the ' Research and exploration ' content, fully implement the positive function expansion, focusing on the Yangshan bonded port area, with the market demand and deepening the policy to further expand to the ' three-port zone ', North Bund, Lujiazui and Lingang New city, such as shipping services cluster area. Phase III, 2016Year-2020 (' Thirteen-Five ' period), it is essential to form a free port function and system in accordance with international practice. "China Economic Weekly," read the relevant documents to understand that this year and the next two years "can operate" content: the implementation of the Yangshan bonded port business tax preferential policy, Chinese foreign ships special case tax exemption policy, promote enterprises to open offshore account pilot, port of departure tax refund policy and so on.　　The contents of "research and exploration" during the "Twelve-Five" period include: Exploring and innovating the regional management system of special supervision, and developing international competitive shipping tax reform and so on. "Some policies have been implemented or are being implemented," Shorin told reporters, "For example, the Yangshan bonded port area is exempt from sales tax, since May this year, has been reduced the relevant business tax more than 40 million yuan." "Three-port three-zone" linkage noteworthy is that Shorin in his speech that the relevant policies of the Yangshan port in the "Twelve-Five" period will be extended to the "three Hong Kong three areas" and what is the "three Hong Kong three districts"?　　The reporter learned that this and Shanghai Pudong New area and the merger of the Nanhui has a connection. Why should the Pudong new area merge with Nanhui? "One of the important reasons is to get through the original failure to get through, such as in the construction of Shanghai International Shipping Center of the regional layout, Pudong, Nanhui have their own ports, through the merger of two regions may better solve the linkage problem."　　"A few months ago, Zhou Zhenhua, director of the Shanghai Municipal Government Development Research Center, introduced the meaning of" new Pudong "to China Economic Weekly. 2008, the port cargo throughput completed 582 million tons, continue to maintain the world's first, container throughput 28.006 million TEU, ranked second in the world, has been initially equipped with the size of the international shipping Center. Before the establishment of new Pudong, the cargo throughput of Shanghai port was mainly shared by Gaoqiao port and two ports in Yangshan port. Located in Pudong, Gaoqiao port is mainly Southeast Asia routes and other cargo routes, located in the original Nanhui Yangshan port is mainly to Europe and the United States container routes.　　Due to a series of reasons such as administrative division, the linkage between the two major ports has some difficulties and resistance. November 18 This year, the Shanghai comprehensive Free trade Zone management Committee was formally established, as the Shanghai Municipal government's dispatched agencies, will be unified management in Pudong area of more than 20 square kilometers of "three areas"-Waigaoqiao free trade zone (including Waigaoqiao bonded Logistics park), Pudong Airport integrated free trade zone, Yangshan Free trade Zone Administrative Services　　And the "three districts" also have the Gaoqiao port, Pudong International Airport, Yangshan port.　　This means that the "three ports" will be the Pudong new area more than 100 kilometers of the East China Sea coastline, 3400 square kilometers of sea also linked up, forming a shipping and air Gold Coast.　　Chang Jiang Cheng, Pudong District, Shanghai City to reporters frankly, Pudong to undertake the construction of Shanghai International Shipping Center Core functional area of the task, the main hand is "three port three", to the system, policy, supervision, function and so on, to promote the integration of resources, improve the overall competitiveness. "Three-port three-district" linkage in the system, mechanism, policy will be a breakthrough. Shorin told the ChineseEconomics Weekly. According to the planning of Shanghai "Twelve-Five", in the future, the Shanghai municipal government will build the Yangshan bonded port area into the core region of Shanghai International Shipping Center, and make the Waigaoqiao free trade zone The important functional frontier of Shanghai International Trade Center, and make the Pudong Airport integrated free trade zone an important part of the International Shipping Centre.　　Three ports "to achieve the functional complementarity of the international container hub port and the airport air transport hub port. According to Ginger, based on the "three-port" planning, Pudong will build a large coastal channel, south to the original Nanhui Luchaogang, north to Waigaoqiao.　　This large coastal corridor will have a radiation effect on the Yangtze River Delta Port Group. All along, with the Yangshan port, Beilun port, Taizhou port, Wenzhou port, Gaoqiao port, Lianyungang, Yangkou of the Yangtze River Delta Port Group, although bear more than 1/3 of the national container cargo throughput, but these ports often lack of effective resource integration, freight contention is very fierce.　　Under the vitalize effect of the ripple effect in Shanghai's construction of International shipping Center, the integration of the Yangtze River Delta Port Group is also speeding up.　　　　"China Economic Weekly" learned that at present, Shanghai is cooperating with the national departments to develop and improve the implementation of the Yangtze River Delta area comprehensive transport planning and port, Intercity rail transit and other key special planning. China has bonded port area 13 bonded port areas superimposed bonded zone, export processing Zone, bonded Logistics Park functional policy, is the future of China's construction of a free port pilot area.　　Up to September 2009, China has 13 bonded port area approved by the State Council.
