The ecological quality of vegetation and the degree of ecological improvement of vegetation rank first in the country. The forest coverage rate and biodiversity richness rank among the top in the country. The green development path with Guangxi characteristics is becoming wider and wider.

The direction, goals and path are clear, and Guangxi is showing a good situation of accelerating development

In response to reporters’ questions, Lu Xinshe said that the Party Committee of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region established the “Liberation Plan” based on the suggestions of cadres and the masses in the region. The sixteen-character work policy of "Thinking, Reform and Innovation, Expanding Openness, and Taking Responsibility for Hard Work" has further clarified the direction, goals and path of Guangxi's reform and development. The whole region has shown a good situation of taking responsibility for hard work and accelerating development.

It is mainly reflected in the following five aspects:

First, the re-emancipation of the mind. Focus on breaking down the old-fashioned thinking, establishing reform and innovation thinking, breaking down the closed and narrow thinking, establishing the awareness of openness and cooperation, breaking down the thinking of being content with the status quo, establishing the consciousness of pioneering and forging ahead, breaking down the thinking of being willing to lag behind, establishing the consciousness of striving to be the first and creating excellence, breaking the thought of being timid and timid, and establishing the courage to forge ahead. The consciousness of daring to do something, breaking through waiting depends on thinking and taking the initiative as a consciousness.

Through "six breaks and six establishments", cadres are guided to break out of the constraints of rules and regulations, break through the barriers of solidified interests, get rid of the shackles of inertial thinking, and open up a new realm of economic and social development with new ideas and new measures.

The second is to deepen the reform. The reform has been fully implemented, with multiple breakthroughs and in-depth advancement. The supply-side structural reform has continued to deepen.

Major projects such as the New Western Land-Sea Corridor, the China (Guangxi) Free Trade Pilot Zone, and the financial opening door to ASEAN have been steadily advanced. " A new all-round open development pattern of "south direction, north connection, east integration, and west integration" has initially taken shape.

Fourth, innovation is accelerating again. Focusing on making up for the shortcomings in innovation, vigorously implement scientific and technological innovation to support the high-quality development of industries, promote comprehensive innovation with scientific and technological innovation as the core, accelerate the construction of innovative Guangxi, and cultivate new momentum for development.

Fifth, cadres have the courage to take on their responsibilities. The Party Committee of the Autonomous Region has successively issued the "1+6+3" series of institutional documents to encourage cadres to take on new responsibilities in the new era. The concept of "responsibility is the most important, hard work is the basis, development is the priority, and struggle is the pride" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
