KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 6 (Bernama) -- China’s Guangdong has reaffirmed its commitment to industrial modernisation and economic transformation with a high-level provincial conference on high-quality development, held on Feb 5.
The event marked the third consecutive year that Guangdong’s post-Spring Festival agenda has focused on fostering sustainable and innovative growth, highlighting the province’s strategy to build a modern industrial system capable of competing internationally.
According to a statement, key government and industry leaders, including Guangdong Communist Party Secretary, Huang Kunming and Governor Wang Weizhong, participated in the discussions.
Secretary Huang emphasised that Guangdong’s economic success has been driven by open cooperation and continuous industrial upgrading, while Governor Wang outlined the province’s approach to upgrading its industrial base and strengthening supply chain resilience.
In the face of global technological shifts and evolving industrial landscapes, the province aims to refine its industrial base, enhance technological innovation, and foster high-growth sectors such as artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics.
Guangdong’s industrial strengths include a comprehensive supply chain network, well-developed infrastructure, and a strong talent pool, with plans to optimise traditional industries while accelerating the development of emerging sectors, moving forward.
A key initiative is the "Action Plan for Attracting a Million Talents to South Guangdong", which seeks to position the region as a global hub for high-tech talent and industrial innovation, along with prioritising Hong Kong and Macao collaboration to drive regional development.
With its latest modernisation push, Guangdong aims to solidify its role as a leader in high-value manufacturing and innovation, ensuring long-term economic sustainability and international competitiveness.
