Through comprehensive and systemic upgrades in economic and social resources, this model would aim to achieve integrated development of resources and industries, promote joint participation and shared benefits involving all sectors of society, and leverage the role of tourism in pursuing balanced economic and social development.
To this end, transport, water, urban infrastructure and other resources will be more efficiently allocated across the nation to promote a balanced economic and social development through tourism.
A tourism coordination and management system covering the nation will be put in place to enhance comprehensive social management through tourism.
This "tourism+" concept will be promoted across the nation to cultivate new productive forces and competitive strengths by merging tourism with other industries.
Society will be mobilized to join in the development and share the benefits of nationwide tourism. Tourism will serve as a means to deliver a greater sense of gains and real benefits to the people.
To put this vision into reality, we have set the goal helping 12 to 14 million people overcome poverty, which accounts for 17 to 20 percent of China's overall target, through the development of tourism over the next five years.
The Chinese government places high importance on tourism development and cooperation with all countries, regions and international organizations.
We are ready to enhance practical cooperation and share development opportunities with our global partners toward the goal of greater tourism prosperity.
