What are the advantages of Laos grinding manufacturing import and export?

Mohan, the only national port in China facing Laos, is receiving the attention from all around, but when Mohan's realistic posture appears in the noisy background, the contrast is strong.

Qin Guangrong, governor of Yunnan Province, put forward the plan of "building Mohan, Hekou and Jiegao three cross-border economic and technological cooperation zones" during the two sessions this year.

If this plan is passed, it may bring a glimmer of light to Mohan's development.

A brand-new but deserted town

The town is surrounded by two hills, and the street hundreds of meters long runs through the town. The two-story building with unified standards for business and residence next to the street is particularly clean, as if it appeared only yesterday. There are few people around the street, and most of the pavements facing the street are locked tightly, with white strips with the words "rent the facade" or "exchange old coins" on them. Most of the shops are restaurants, small department stores or hotels, but there are few doors. Even Mohan International Trade City has become an "empty city". There are only a handful of more than 2 shops in it, and the best business is the billiards shop and video game room located at the entrance of the trade city. Only the slogan "Building Mohan into a Processing and Trade Platform of China-ASEAN Complementary Economy" hanging on the hillside in the distance reminds passers-by that the road extends beyond the boundary pillar No.29 of China and Laos, where there is another market.

Xishuangbanna Jinshui Xianghe International Freight Forwarding Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Jinshui Xianghe Company) is one of the first enterprises to see this market. A year ago, Mengla Branch Office was established here, and Xiao Li (pseudonym) is the only employee in this office. "Our company is a brand and two teams." Xiao Li introduced that this nature is the same as that of the head office. The company not only exports its own goods, but also helps other freight forwarders to do agency work. But in Mohan's day's business, he only helps businessmen who are not familiar with the business to do policy consultation or customs declaration. "The company sent me here without too many performance requirements, just hoping to lay a foundation here. You can't wait for the road to pass, others will go smoothly, and then it will be too late to get familiar with the business. "

in the foolishness, the calculation of Jinshui Xianghe Company has almost become the * * * knowledge of the enterprise. In the interview, the reporter found that almost all the 7-8 trading companies that have been stationed now are mainly on the sidelines, and the real trade in goods is not involved. Many enterprises that come to explore the road still choose to stay put in the end. "Now everyone is waiting to see how to formulate logistics facilitation issues that everyone cares about, such as customs clearance time and fees, after the road is really connected."

Walking around Mohan, you will find that the streets are full of outsiders. Travel agencies and restaurants are mostly run by Sichuanese, electrical stores are owned by Cantonese, and small department stores are also sold by Chongqing people. These people all pin their business on policy changes. Even the vendors selling non-staple food believe that "after the roads are clear, if the opening hours of the ports are extended, there will be more time for people to spend money, instead of rushing to Moding in Laos between 5: 3."

Two worlds: Mohan and Mohing

Compared with these businessmen, residents born and raised in Mohan seem to be much more casual.

"If the port is closed, I will go around from other places." Xiao He (a pseudonym) sat in the market where the border people exchanged markets and said it honestly.

His current status is a bit special-the son-in-law of Laos, who rented a booth here to sell snacks after Mohan and Moding implemented the border trade on the 8th and 28th of each month. This border area, located on a hill in Mohan, is just a few rows of red tents built on a flattened wasteland. Most vendors from Laos sell some snacks such as muntjac and Lao beer here. Except Xiao He, the rest of the Lao people hardly know Chinese. After seeing the reporter, they can only simply say the words "meat" and "wine" to introduce their products and look forward to it.

Contrary to expectations, in the reporter's interview for more than an hour, the border people's mutual urban area did not attract many customers. "Most of the people who come here to spend are Laos." Xiao He introduced, "Generally speaking, Laos will come here to eat when it is too late. In fact, it is better to make money in Moding."

There is a hidden worry behind these details. Without the attraction of good policies, all these people will just be ignorant passers-by, and their destination is Laos, south of the boundary pillar. There, Mohan has a strong competitor-Moding Economic and Trade Development Zone.

Like Mo Han, Mo Ding has a management committee under the government. The difference is that the development right was sold to a foreign enterprise. It's a completely different scene from China and other places in Laos. Wild animals are traded on the roadside, with iron cages lined with PANDA KID, monkeys, pangolins and even pythons. Across the street, a massage center made a huge advertisement, and the girl on the screen was ambiguous. In an idle shop next to it, the "Cockfighting Rules" is posted, and the ink looks very fresh. An intuitive feeling is: it seems that everything that is explicitly prohibited in two countries is in an open or semi-open state here.

The most beautiful building in the whole Moding Trade Zone is the casino. Dressed men and women went in and out, and the security guard stood at the door, looking at everyone seriously. The story about the casino was told by a China businessman who had lived in Laos for many years. In Laos, a country where gambling is forbidden, the casino can stand on its own feet only because of the special zone policy implemented by Moding Development Zone, but one additional condition is that casinos are not open to Lao citizens. However, the construction of the casino was still full of twists and turns, and it was not until the boss also promised to the China government that it would not be open to the citizens of China that the casino was really opened. "It's a good execution not to let Laos take part in gambling. After all, the casino is in Laos' territory," said the China boss. "As for prohibiting China people from entering, you can see for yourself."

But for such an economic development zone, its fate is as unpredictable as gambling.

The shortage of construction funds is the biggest weakness

But what is certain is that no matter whether it's Mohan or Mohing, it needs to find a stable pillar industry to get sustainable development. Yi Dejun, director of the Economic Development Bureau of Mohan Economic Development Zone, said frankly that Mohan Port failed to form a prosperous scene like Hekou Port due to various reasons, and it is still at the level of infrastructure construction. In recent years, the cumulative total investment of all parties is nearly 16 million yuan, and the development zone has only completed infrastructure construction such as Mohan Port Avenue, freight yard road, tap water project and reservoir road.

in fact, in a certain period of time, it is necessary for a border economic development zone to cultivate industries with policy support in addition to infrastructure construction. The plan of "building Mohan, Hekou and Jiegao three cross-border economic and technological cooperation zones" put forward by Qin Guangrong, governor of Yunnan Province during the two sessions this year seems to bring a glimmer of light to Mohan. It can be referenced that Pingxiang Port in Guangxi became the first pilot area of Sino-Vietnamese cross-border economic cooperation zone, and in 27, Pingxiang Port became the largest port for Guangxi's import and export to ASEAN with a trade volume of 98 million US dollars under the catalysis of more preferential policies. If the plan is passed, it means that Mohan will welcome more preferential policies.

However, this will is difficult to implement. The relevant person in charge of the Border Trade Department of Yunnan Provincial Department of Commerce believes that the smooth passage of a mature cross-border economic cooperation zone is only a basic condition, and whether it can attract enterprises to enter and get the support of the first phase of development funds is the most important thing.

"The initial investment of the cross-border economic cooperation zone needs RMB 2 billion, but up to now, no big enterprise is willing to take the lead in development." The above-mentioned person said, "The enterprises that attract investment can't meet the standards, which leads to a huge gap in construction funds, which is the biggest weakness faced by Mohan at present." From the accumulated investment of Mohan Economic and Technological Development Zone of only 16 million yuan in the past few years, it can be seen that the demand for funds is far from reality.

However, some investors are still interested in Mohan's prospects on Kunming Highway. It is understood that in the past two years, the house price at Mohan Port has increased from 3,-4, yuan/square meter to 6,-7, yuan/square meter; The housing price has also increased to 1,7-2, yuan/square meter. "The price has basically reached the level of the central section of Mengla County." In addition, some hillsides behind the building have also been leveled, ready to build on them.
