IV. Issues for discussion
I. Introduction to Pearl River Delta
 Pearl River Delta is adjacent to
Hong Kong and Macao. In the
region, there are nine big and
medium-sized cities
 10% of whole country GDP in 2006
 The industrial structure of the region
has obviously improved
 Urbanization has achieved a much
higher level than the whole country
 Convenient and fast communication
networks have basically been
developed
II. Urban Statistical Cooperation -- its main
forms and contents
 The nine cities in a mutual-driven and competing situation.
Differentiation and irreplaceability becoming obvious. They
needed cooperation and reached an agreement in 1996.
 Urban statistics in China: statistical systems in municipal
governments as core, with supplements from the statistical
systems in functional departments, industry associations
and non-government sector.
 Moreover, urban government statistical service comprises
the survey offices of NBS outposted in relevant cities and
the municipal government statistical bureaux.
II. Urban Statistical Cooperation -- its main
forms and contents
(a) Periodic exchange of agreed statistical data:
- include rural economy, industrial economy, finance, trade, tourism,
consumer price etc.
- over 100 statistical indicators and also other data on social
development and environmental ecology monitoring
(b) Annual periodic thematic seminar hosted by different
cities on rotation:
1. to summarise experience from urban statistical work reform and
development
2. to explore deficiencies in the practical work of urban statistics
3. to study how to improve the exchange system of statistical data
4. to study how to serve economic development in respect of current hot
issues
III. Main contribution of urban statistics to
Pearl River Delta economic development
(i) Change from aiming at economic growth rate to
economic effectiveness
 Through statistical data exchange and cooperation, relevant statistics have been
enhanced with improved measure of the economic growth rate
 Example: Shenzhen – government decision-makers adopted the data monitoring
and analysis advice from statistical department and prepared the policy of
transition from “Fast Shenzhen” to “Efficient Shenzhen”

(ii) Change from aiming at gross output to aiming at
industrial structure optimization

Carried out comparative industrial structure analysis and research
 The industrial structure of Pearl River Delta has become more and more
reasonable and reached to the level of countries in the mid class of per capital
income

(iii) Change
from focusing at city ranking to characteristic
urban development
 Urban statistics provide guiding information for establishing the strategy and
goals for characteristic urban development
 From 1996 to 2006, the 9 cities have blazed a unique path for development
 Guangzhou and
Shenzhen: the first category
of cities that led economy
development

opportunities from the
industry transformation of
Guangzhou and Shenzhen
 Zhaoqing and Zhuhai: the
third category of cities with
fairly fast economic growth

(iv) Change from focusing on urbanization level to
urban living standard
 Since 1996, the nine cities in Pearl River Delta had begun urban data
exchange.
 While stressing urbanization development, all cities have since paid much
attention to increasing urban living standard, including:
(i) city’s infrastructure construction has been developing rapidly
(ii) urban living standard has been raised; urban living standard in Pearl
River Delta in 2006 was rather close to the well-off goal
(iii) social security level has been raised, which has received more
attention from governments of various cities

(v) Change from urban area expansion to intensified land
use
 The condition of urban intensified land use in Pearl River Delta is evaluated
from four levels of input, output, economic benefit and sustainability
 Objective data on land use efficiency are provided to government decisionmaking departments
 Disparity can the be identified for remedial follow up by comparing data of the
nine cities

IV. Issues for discussion
• The impact of unbalanced development among cities on
the statistical information exchange system
• Information exchange between government statistical
department and functional department needs to be
strengthened further
• Form and method of statistical information should keep
pace with time
• Research into statistical method and system reform
