Those who observe the trend are wise, and those who control the trend win. Shandong Province has thoroughly implemented the important instructions and requirements of General Secretary Xi Jinping and the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee, anchored the “going in the forefront, comprehensively pioneering” and “three in the forefront” general compliance, general positioning, and general navigation mark, and insisted on seeking progress while maintaining stability. The overall tone of the work is to coordinate the promotion of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development.
No pain no gain. Departments at all levels in Shandong resolutely shoulder their political responsibilities and adhere to the integrated planning and promotion of normalized epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. They not only resolutely hold the bottom line that the epidemic will not rebound on a large scale, but also minimize the impact of the epidemic on economic and social development. To grasp it, we must be tough in both wars, and strive to win the “double victory” of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. Adhere to the general principle of seeking progress while maintaining stability, continue to do a good job in the implementation of the action plans for the “Top Ten Industries”, “Top Ten Demands” and “Top Ten Innovations”, solidly promote the “Six Stability” and “Six Guarantees”, and strive to do a good job in various work to ensure that the economy operates within a reasonable range and that the overall social stability is ensured. Work hard on “smoothing”, “stable”, “expanding” and “improving quality”. On the basis of solid prevention and control of the epidemic, normal production and living order will be restored in an orderly manner, and efforts will be made to minimize the impact of the epidemic on economic and social development.

In terms of growth rate, Shandong’s foreign trade growth rate ranks sixth among the top 10 foreign trade provinces and cities in the country, and the export and import growth rates are ranked fourth and eighth respectively; regional foreign trade development is more coordinated. In the first quarter, the Jiaodong Economic Circle, the provincial capital economic circle and the Lunan economic circle achieved foreign trade growth rates of 12.3%, 16.8% and 14.8% respectively; the vitality of private enterprises was further enhanced.

After a stable start, it is even more necessary to move forward, facing the future, and still be prepared to overcome difficulties. Practice tells us that it is for the sake of more sustainable economic stability to resolutely “prevent” the epidemic now. Looking forward to the whole year, all parts of Shandong will continue to adhere to the principle of stability, seek progress while maintaining stability, work hard, and make every effort to coordinate the work of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development to ensure that the economic operation achieves steady improvement in quality and reasonable growth in quantity.
