解码“如今的福建”:开放大门越开越大******
中新网福州1月12日电 (记者 龙敏)2023年福建省政府工作报告显示,过去五年,福建地区生产总值连跨两个万亿元(人民币,下同)台阶,年均增长6.4%左右、居东部地区第一位;人均地区生产总值连跨四个万元台阶,突破12万元,跃升至全国第四位,是唯一所有设区市人均地区生产总值都超过全国平均水平的省份。
福建发展跑出了“加速度”。对此,福建省省长赵龙在正于福州召开的福建省十四届人大一次会议上表示,福建今天的发展和成绩得益于改革开放,未来的前途和希望也一定靠改革开放。
近五年来,福建改革不停顿,“放管服”、财税金融、国资国企、农村集体产权制度等领域改革取得突破性进展,三明医改经验在全国推广,集体林权制度改革成为全国标杆。
近五年来,福建开放不止步,进出口总额年均增长11%,66种商品出口规模居全国第一;新设外资企业超1万家,高技术产业吸收外资年均增长12%;自贸试验区推出146项全国首创举措,“丝路海运”等标志性工程影响力不断扩大,与“一带一路”沿线国家和地区经贸合作、人文交流更加紧密,新增国际友城23个。
“福建改革开放纵深推进,发展潜力空间得到新拓展。”赵龙表示,如今的福建,发展活力竞相迸发,开放大门越开越大。
面向未来五年,福建官方勾勒了打造“活力福建”的路线图:持续深化制度型开放,加快建设开放强省、贸易强省、引资大省;持续深化闽台融合发展,建好海峡两岸融合发展示范区,打造台胞台企登陆的第一家园;持续深化闽港闽澳合作,引侨资、聚侨力、汇侨智,吸引更多海外侨胞投身家乡建设。
福建省人大代表、九牧集团有限公司董事长林孝发认为,中国对新冠病毒感染正式实施“乙类乙管”,人员往来将更加密切;福建是制造业大省和外贸大省,要积极鼓励和推动闽企“走出去”,到国际市场上抢占商机。
外贸是福建经济发展的强引擎。当下,福建更大力度稳定和扩大出口,积极推动工贸结合,加强外贸产业链招商,培育外贸领域名企名牌名品,发展数字贸易,推动外贸稳规模、优结构;积极发展市场采购、跨境电商、海外仓等外贸新业态,协同推进服务业开放与服务贸易发展,推动“福品卖全球、全球买闽货”。
开放兴,则福建兴。福建也更大力度吸引和利用外资,深入实施外商投资准入负面清单,促进外资稳存量、扩增量;落实外资企业国民待遇,引进更多重大外资项目。
同时,福建将更大力度释放“21世纪海上丝绸之路”核心区、自由贸易试验区、国家自主创新示范区等“多区叠加”效应,深入实施“丝路海运”等工程和“丝路伙伴”计划,加快海丝中央法务区建设;加快与共建“一带一路”国家和地区产业对接,推动中印尼、中菲“两国双园”建设方案尽快获批;积极拓展与RCEP国家的近洋航线,提升“中欧班列”规模效益,推进“海丝”“陆丝”无缝对接、联动发展。
福建现有闽籍华侨华人1580多万人,居住在世界188个国家和地区。福建省人大代表、中国侨联常委陈玉树建议,以侨为桥,以侨引侨、以侨引外,深入推进福建高水平对外开放。(完)
中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事******
中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。
资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。
因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。
日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
