乘東博會東風(fēng)，北港集團展現(xiàn)開放胸懷

黃利霞

自“一帶一路”和國際陸海貿(mào)易新通道（以下簡稱“陸海新通道”）建設(shè)推進以來，廣西北部灣國際港務(wù)集團有限公司（以下簡稱北港集團）始終踏準(zhǔn)時代節(jié)拍，一路開放發(fā)展，并借助中國—東盟博覽會（以下簡稱東博會）的公共平臺，向世界展示了自己的風(fēng)采。

第18屆東博會舉辦在即，本刊記者從中國—東盟博覽會秘書處獲悉，第18屆東博會將繼續(xù)設(shè)置西部陸海新通道專題展示，而北港集團也將借此契機向各界展示開放北港的新風(fēng)貌、新成果、新亮點。

開啟“陸海新通道” 點亮絲路明燈

2019年，西部陸海新通道建設(shè)正式上升為國家戰(zhàn)略，國家明確提出建設(shè)北部灣國際門戶港。2021年，中國國務(wù)院印發(fā)了《國家綜合立體交通網(wǎng)規(guī)劃綱要》，北部灣港規(guī)劃定位上升，與上海港、深圳港、廣州港等10個港口一并列入國際樞紐海港。

如今，欽州鐵路集裝箱中心站、北海鐵山港進港鐵路專用線打通了“陸海新通道”海鐵聯(lián)運“最后一公里”，實現(xiàn)重要港區(qū)進港鐵路全覆蓋、海鐵聯(lián)運“無縫銜接”;欽州港東航道實現(xiàn)10萬噸級集裝箱船通航;欽州港東航道擴建一二期調(diào)整工程于2020年7月開工，2021年擴建工程全面提速……目前，北部灣國際門戶港航道最大通航能力已達20萬噸，30萬噸級碼頭及航道正在加快建設(shè)，2022年將實現(xiàn)通航20萬噸級集裝箱船、30萬噸級散貨船。

成績的取得，得益于廣西積極打造北部灣國際門戶港。近年來，廣西加快“陸海新通道”建設(shè)，借助東博會平臺推進中國—東盟互聯(lián)互通迎來新機遇。

2017年，“陸海新通道”以“南向通道”的建設(shè)打開新局。這一年舉行的第14屆東博會上，廣西、重慶、貴州、甘肅與新加坡五地企業(yè)共同按下“合作手印”，五地的標(biāo)志物在展示臺上逐一亮起，展現(xiàn)“南向通道”海、陸、空、網(wǎng)的多維度多式聯(lián)運格局。

在“南向通道”的建設(shè)中，北港集團發(fā)揮了重要的作用。2017年5月，西部物流園重慶鐵路口岸至廣西北部灣港的班列成功試運行，首次實現(xiàn)了“南向通道”的雙向貫通。該線全程鐵路運行時間在50小時以內(nèi)，最短用時約36小時，較原有普通鐵路運輸節(jié)省50%以上的時間，較走長江水運路徑節(jié)省80%以上的時間，展現(xiàn)了其強勁的物流優(yōu)勢。

志合者，不以山海為遠(yuǎn)。“陸海新通道”這條向北連接絲綢之路經(jīng)濟帶、向南連接21世紀(jì)海上絲綢之路和中南半島的經(jīng)濟走廊，將“帶”和“路”有機結(jié)合起來，讓“一帶一路”經(jīng)中國西部地區(qū)形成完整的閉環(huán)。

共展國際合作碩果

2020年，北港集團簽約文萊摩拉漁港項目，這是北港集團與文萊政府在摩拉港項目合作基礎(chǔ)上又一個里程碑項目，也是“文萊—廣西經(jīng)濟走廊”建設(shè)取得的又一新突破。

在“文萊—廣西經(jīng)濟走廊”框架下，2017年，北港集團在文萊合資設(shè)立摩拉港有限公司，負(fù)責(zé)摩拉港集裝箱碼頭及散貨碼頭的運營管理，碼頭作業(yè)效率及服務(wù)水平顯著提高，物流成本逐步降低，摩拉港的區(qū)域競爭力顯著提升。同年，第14屆東博會開幕前一天，文萊蘇丹哈桑納爾·博爾基亞親臨文萊摩拉港展廳，聽取了合資公司接管摩拉港集裝箱碼頭半年來的運營情況，以及關(guān)于摩拉港新港區(qū)和配套產(chǎn)業(yè)園的系統(tǒng)性建設(shè)、規(guī)劃方案的介紹。蘇丹對摩拉港集裝箱碼頭運營情況表示滿意，對新港區(qū)規(guī)劃表示高度認(rèn)可，并表示希望摩拉港公司盡快把摩拉港打造為區(qū)域性樞紐港。

在第14屆東博會上，北港集團投資的文萊摩拉港項目和馬來西亞—中國關(guān)丹產(chǎn)業(yè)園區(qū)（以下簡稱關(guān)丹園）、關(guān)丹港項目一一亮相，集中展示了北港集團融入“一帶一路”建設(shè)的積極貢獻和獨特優(yōu)勢。其中，關(guān)丹園、關(guān)丹港項目還聯(lián)手中國—馬來西亞欽州產(chǎn)業(yè)園區(qū)（以下簡稱中馬欽州產(chǎn)業(yè)園區(qū)）開設(shè)“兩國雙園”聯(lián)合展廳，有力地宣傳了園區(qū)的投資環(huán)境、區(qū)位優(yōu)勢、入園政策等。

2019年，關(guān)丹園與中馬欽州產(chǎn)業(yè)園區(qū)在第16屆東博會上再次攜手聯(lián)袂布展，“兩國雙園”展位主要以展示“雙園”建設(shè)發(fā)展成果、入園企業(yè)風(fēng)采為主，分區(qū)域展示了關(guān)丹園、中馬欽州產(chǎn)業(yè)園區(qū)、馬來西亞關(guān)丹港的最新建設(shè)進展及入園項目情況。其中，有8家來自關(guān)丹園的企業(yè)參展，輪胎制造項目、再生紙生產(chǎn)項目、化肥生產(chǎn)項目等更是帶著企業(yè)產(chǎn)品走進東博會，共展兩國產(chǎn)能合作的豐碩成果。

在中馬兩國政府的大力支持下，在運營企業(yè)的努力耕耘下，“兩國雙園”建設(shè)取得令人矚目的成就。截至目前，關(guān)丹園已開發(fā)約8平方公里土地，累計完成投資13億元人民幣，累計簽約項目10個，協(xié)議投資240億元人民幣，其中已投產(chǎn)項目2個，在建項目2個，落地項目5個，累計完成產(chǎn)業(yè)投資約120億元人民幣。分別創(chuàng)造臨時及長期就業(yè)崗位1.5萬個和5000個，帶動關(guān)丹港新增吞吐量1800萬噸。

盛會提供新機遇

一直以來，東博會致力于推動中國與東盟互聯(lián)互通，連續(xù)多年設(shè)置西部陸海新通道展區(qū)并舉辦系列貿(mào)促活動，為“陸海新通道”建設(shè)提供快捷之“道”。2020年疫情沖擊下，第17屆東博會的西部陸海新通道展區(qū)規(guī)模不降，中國重慶、青海、貴州等9個省市共組織109家企業(yè)參展。北部灣港作為新通道重要的海陸節(jié)點，以面積達500平方米的北部灣國際門戶港展區(qū)在南寧國際會展中心B1展廳首次亮相，北港集團正是其中一道亮麗的風(fēng)景線。

在第17屆東博會簽約儀式上，北港集團馬來西亞—中國關(guān)丹國際物流園項目、亞太冷國際供應(yīng)鏈有限公司戰(zhàn)略合作、生物質(zhì)能源項目等三大項目同時簽約;特別是與中交集團簽署合作框架協(xié)議，共同投資建設(shè)馬來西亞—中國關(guān)丹國際物流園，實現(xiàn)了北港集團在海外與央企投資合作的新突破，邁開了優(yōu)勢互補、抱團發(fā)展、強強聯(lián)合的新步伐。

據(jù)悉，第18屆東博會以“共享陸海新通道新機遇，共建中國—東盟命運共同體”為主題，在西部陸海新通道專題展示的框架下，將設(shè)置北部灣國際門戶港展區(qū)。作為北部灣港的運營企業(yè)，北港集團將再次借助東博會的平臺展示其面向東盟國家開放合作的成果;展示其奮力趕超、加快升級的巨大發(fā)展?jié)摿?展示其緊跟國家發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略建設(shè)好北部灣國際門戶港、西部陸海新通道的決心與信心。

鋪展北部灣國際門戶港展區(qū)的規(guī)劃藍圖，一艘巨輪如蛟龍出海，吞吐天地，而在水澤升騰下，是廣西北部灣的一道道風(fēng)景，一顆顆璀璨的海上明珠。今年的北部灣國際門戶港展區(qū)，將全方位展示北部灣國際門戶港在智慧港口、海鐵聯(lián)運等方面的成就及遠(yuǎn)景規(guī)劃，“藍色旗艦”再次起航，讓我們共同期待！

Taking Advantage of CAEXPO， Beibu Gulf Port Group Embraces for Open Development

Written by Huang Lixia / Translated by Xie Zongming and Chen Zhiying

Since the advancement of the Belt and Road Initiative and the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor （hereinafter referred to as “the New Land-Sea Corridor”）， Guangxi Beibu Gulf International Port Group Co.， Ltd. （hereinafter referred to as Beibu Gulf Port Group） has followed the trend of the times to open up and develop. It has also utilized the public platform of the China-ASEAN Expo （hereinafter referred to as the CAEXPO） to show its charms to the world.

With the upcoming 18th CAEXPO， the reporter of the China-ASEAN Panorama Magazine learned from the CAEXPO Secretariat that an exhibition themed the New Land-Sea Corridor will be set in the 18th CAEXPO. At that time， an opening Beibu Gulf Port Group with new features， new achievements and new highlights will be displayed to the world.

New Land-Sea Corridor boosts development of the Belt and Road

In 2019， the construction of the “New Land-Sea Corridor” officially became a national strategy and the state clearly proposed to build Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port. In 2021， Chinas State Council issued the Outline of the National Comprehensive Three-Dimensional Transportation Network Planing. According to the Outline， Beibu Gulf Port was listed as an international hub port together with 10 ports such as Shanghai Port， Shenzhen Port and Guangzhou Port， achieving an improvement in its positioning.

The operation of Qinzhou Railway Container Center Station and the dedicated railway line of Tieshan Port in Beihai marks the completion of the “l(fā)ast-mile” of the New Land-Sea Corridor sea-rail intemodal transport， realizing full coverage of inbound railways in important port areas and “seamless connection”; The Qinzhou Port East Channel is open to 100，000-ton container ships; The Phase I and II Adjustment Project of the East Channel Expansion of Qinzhou Port was started in July 2020 and would be fully accelerated in 2021... At present， the maximum navigation capacity of the Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port has reached 200，000 tons， and the construction of 300，000-ton wharves and channels is being accelerated which means the navigation of 200，000-ton container ships and 300，000-ton bulk carriers will be realized in 2022.

These achievements are inseparable from Guangxis efforts in building the Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port. In recent years， Guangxi has accelerated the construction of the New Land-Sea Corridor and gained new opportunities to promote China-ASEAN connectivity with the help of the CAEXPO.

In 2017， the construction of Southbound Channel opened a new chapter for the New Land-Sea Corridor. At the 14th CAEXPO， enterprises from Guangxi， Chongqing， Guizhou， Gansu and Singapore jointly pressed the “cooperation fingerprint” on the stage， and the landmarks of the five places in the Southbound Channel lit up one by one， showing a multi-dimensional and multimodal transport pattern of the Southbound Channel integrating sea， land， air and network.

Beibu Gulf Port Group has played an important role in building the Southbound Channel. In May 2017， the train from Chongqing Western Logistics Park to Guangxi Beibu Gulf Port was successfully put into trial operation， realizing the two-way connection of the Southbound Channel for the first time. The whole operation time of the line is less than 50 hours， and the shortest time is about 36 hours， which saves more than 50% of the time compared with the original ordinary railway transportation and more than 80% of the time compared with taking the Yangtze River water transportation route， showing great advantages in logistics.

Those who are like-minded are not far from mountains and seas. The New Land-Sea Corridor links the Silk Road Economic Belt in the north， and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road and the China-Indochina Peninsula Economic Corridor in the south. It integrates the “Belt” and “Road”， forming a complete circuit for the Belt and Road through the western China.

“Two Countries， Twin Parks” shows fruitful achievements

In 2020， Beibu Gulf Port Group signed an agreement to operate the Muara Fish Landing Complex， another milestone project based on the cooperation between Beibu Gulf Port Group and Brunei government. Its also another breakthrough in the construction of “Brunei Guangxi Economic Corridor” （BGEC）.

Under the framework of the BGEC， in 2017， Beibu Gulf Port Group jointly established Muara Port Company Sdn Bhd （MPC） in Brunei to be responsible for the operation and management of Muara Port container terminal and bulk cargo terminal. Since then， operation efficiency of the terminal and service level have been significantly improved， the logistics cost has been gradually reduced， and the regional competitiveness of Muara Port has been significantly improved.

In the same year， the day before the opening of the 14th CAEXPO， H.E. Mr. Hassanal Bolkiah， Sultan of Brunei， visited the Brunei Muara Port exhibition hall， and listened to the operation situation of the Port container terminal after taking over by the joint venture for half a year and the systematic construction and planning scheme of the new port area and supporting industrial park in Muara Port. Sudan showed satisfaction to the operation situation of the Port container terminal， highly recognized the planning of the new port area， and hoped that the MPC could build Muara Port into a regional hub port as soon as possible.

In the 14th CAEXPO， Muara Fish Landing Complex invested by Beibu Gulf Port Group， Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park （MCKIP） and Kuantan Port made their presences， highlighting the positive contribution and unique advantages of Beibu Gulf Port Group in integrating into the Belt and Road construction. Among them， MCKIP and Kuantan Port， together with China-Malaysia Qinzhou Industrial Park （CMQIP） were displayed in the exhibition hall themed “Two Countries， Twin Parks”， effectively publicizing the investment environment， location advantages and admission policies of the park.

Again in 2019， MCKIP and CMQIP collectively joined in the 16th CAEXPO. The exhibition hall of “Two Countries， Twin Parks” mainly showed the achievement of the two parks construction and introduced the settled enterprises， which offered updated information about the two parks in different aspects. In the exhibition， 8 enterprises settled in MCKIP were exhibited. Enterprises in tire manufacturing， recycled paper manufacturing， and NPK fertilizer manufacturing showed up with their product samples. All this demonstrated the fruitful result of capacity cooperation between China and Malaysia.

Supported by Chinese and Malaysian government and Sustained by the operator companies， the construction of “Two Countries， Twin Parks” has seen remarkable achievements. Up to now， the MCKIP has constructed 8 km2 of lands into use. The accumulated completed investment is RMB 1.3 billion yuan with 10 projects signed in total. The confirmed investment reached RMB 24 billion yuan， including 2 projects in production， 2 projects in construction and 5 projects ready for construction. The accumulated completed industrial investment is about RMB 12 billion yuan. The industrial park has created 15，000 temporary jobs and 5，000 permanent jobs and help increase the throughput of Kuantan Port by 18 million tons.

Grand event provides new opportunities

The CAEXPO has been promoting the connectivity between China and ASEAN as always， setting exhibition halls themed the New Land-Sea Corridor for consecutive years and holding series of trade promotion events， so as to construct the “fast lane” of the corridor. Though challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020， the New Land-Sea Corridor exhibition hall of the 17th CAEXPO was still a bustle. 109 companies from 9 provinces such as Chongqing， Qingdao， and Guizhou showed up in the exhibition. As the gateway of the corridor， the exhibition hall themed Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port was first revealed in the B1 Hall of the Convention and Exhibition Centre in Nanning， It took up 500 m2 of space， in which the Beibu Gulf Port Group was one of the attractions.

During the 17th CAEXPO， three highlight projects， namely the Malaysia-China Kuantan International Logistics Park project of Beibu Gulf Port Group， the strategic cooperation project of ApacCold International Supply Chain Limited， and the project about biomass energy were signed. The Framework Agreement on Cooperation signed by the China Communications Construction Co.， Ltd. was also worth mentioning， for it promoted the investment in constructing Malaysia-China Kuantan International Logistics Park， achieving new breakthroughs in receiving investment and cooperation from overseas and state-owned enterprises. It marked the new stage of complementary and mutual beneficial cooperation.

The 18th CAEXPO is themed “Sharing Opportunities Created by the New Land-Sea Corridor， Building the China-ASEAN Community with a Shared Future”. In the themed exhibition of the New Land-Sea Corridor， there will be an exhibition area specially for the Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port. As the company operator of the Beibu Gulf Port， Beibu Gulf Port Group will again show the results of their cooperation with ASEAN countries， their potential of stable and fast development， and the determination and confidence in constructing the Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port and the New Land-Sea Corridor in accordance with the national strategy for development.

The master plan of the Beibu Gulf International Gateway Port exhibition area is slowly unveiled， revealing the scene of giant freighters braving the waves and splitting the tide. Behind the surge and vapor， the Beibu Gulf Port shines like a diamond on the skyline. This years Beibu Gulf Port exhibition will comprehensively show the achievement and long-term planing of the port in terms of constrcuting the intelligent port and sea-rail intermodal transportation. The blue engine roars loud into the ocean. Lets look forward to its new journey. Bon voyage！
