Wu Bangguo, chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, told officials to strive for better financial services and modern, high-end business functions at the Tianjin Binhai New Area, a pilot for many of the country’s new economic and financial policies.
He visited a bonded zone at the area and called for more efforts to build Tianjin into a world logistics and shipping center.
Wu Bangguo had taken a ride on the Beijing-Tianjin express railway, which was on a month-long trial with a designed speed exceeding 300 km per hour, before arriving at Tianjin. He called for faster development of the country’s railway system.
