陸海并舉，泛北合作再添新碩果

陳麗冰

泛北部灣，一灣相連多國，是多區域合作的重要交匯點。2006年，順應經濟全球化和區域經濟一體化大趨勢，泛北部灣經濟合作論壇（以下簡稱泛北論壇）應運而生，標志著泛北部灣經濟合作揚帆起航。15年來，泛北論壇廣泛凝聚合作共識，積極拓展合作平臺，有力推動各方從合作走向共贏。

2020年10月15日，第十一屆泛北部灣經濟合作論壇暨2020北部灣國際門戶港合作峰會在廣西南寧舉辦。來自中國及東盟各國的政府官員、知名專家學者、商界精英、業界人士等代表通過線上線下融合的方式參與本次論壇，并就“合作共建北部灣國際門戶港，探索聯動發展新模式”“高質量建設陸海新通道，助力國際供應鏈發展”等議題進行研討，推動泛北合作再添新碩果。

新時代的泛北合作有著廣闊的發展前景

作為中國與東盟海陸聯結的紐帶，泛北部灣以其獨特的地理位置、豐富的自然資源、良好的合作基礎和廣闊的發展前景，日益受到各方的關注。尤其是隨著中國與東盟合作的不斷深化，泛北合作作為中國—東盟合作框架下的重要次區域合作也被寄予更多的厚望。

在本屆論壇上，與會各方一致認為，在疫情影響下，中國與東盟的經貿投資合作逆勢上揚，充分展現了中國—東盟合作的韌性，同時也從側面反映出泛北合作的廣闊前景，期待從促進港口建設、國際陸海貿易新通道（以下簡稱“陸海新通道”）建設等方面深入推動泛北合作，造福區域各國人民。

“疫情發生以來，中國和東盟國家密切溝通，相互支持，共同促進地區經濟復蘇，經貿投資合作逆勢上揚，東盟上升為中國最大的貿易伙伴，充分展現了中國—東盟戰略伙伴關系的深厚基礎，也從一個側面反映出泛北合作的廣闊前景。”廣西壯族自治區黨委書記鹿心社表示。

為此，鹿心社建議，泛北各方以中國加快構建新發展格局、《區域全面經濟伙伴關系協定》即將簽署等為新契機，共同探索經貿合作的新方式、新規則，進一步暢通貿易;共建共享北部灣國際門戶港，更好地服務泛北地區加快融入全球貿易體系;共同提升“陸海新通道”的建設水平，牽引帶動中國—東盟產業體系優勢互補，深度融合;以中國—東盟數字經濟合作年為契機，攜手培育區域經濟發展新動能。

泰國副總理兼商業部部長朱林·拉薩那威西表示，泛北合作是重要的區域級合作，而北部灣國際門戶港則是重要的物流基地和運輸樞紐，通過鐵路、水路、空運中轉，可以覆蓋中國西部地區、東盟國家，甚至逐步覆蓋到中亞和歐洲地區。為此，泛北各方應充分發揮北部灣國際門戶港的地理優勢，加強合作。泰國也愿加強“一帶一路”與泰國東部經濟走廊、“陸海新通道”的聯系，推動北部灣成為地區物流中心，乃至中國通往世界的門戶。

群策群力，共建北部灣國際門戶港

2019年印發的《西部陸海新通道總體規劃》明確提升北部灣港國際門戶港的發展定位，北部灣國際門戶港正式成為國家戰略。如今，北部灣國際門戶港建設成效如何？今后應如何加強建設？在本屆論壇上，與會嘉賓就合作共建北部灣國際門戶港進行了深入探討，并推動一系列合作成果落地。

中國交通運輸部規劃研究院副院長朱魯存表示，北部灣國際門戶港從國際層面上看，是連接“一帶一路”的新樞紐，通過“陸海新通道”和北部灣國際門戶港的聯通，可以連接中亞、歐洲以及東盟各國，形成海陸雙向開放的國際物流新通道。為此，他建議，各方可以通過提升北部灣綜合運輸樞紐和物流樞紐的能力、完善港口的集疏運通道功能、降低港口生產和管理的費用、優化港口服務功能，以及吸引國內外投資企業參與北部灣沿海產業帶的建設，打造萬億產業集群等方面共同建設北部灣國際門戶港。

中國國家發展和改革委員會綜合運輸研究所所長汪鳴則表示，泛北部灣地區具有后發區位和潛力優勢，各方應該在設施、產業、金融等方面探索出創新性的共享機制，在樞紐的支撐下，為航運服務聚集區、臨港產業聚集區和現代物流園區發展探索出一條新路，為泛北部灣地區帶來重構產業體系、貿易體系和物流體系的巨大機遇，使北部灣國際門戶港得到高質量發展。

另外，值得一提的是，為了加快北部灣國際門戶港建設，本屆論壇還達成了一系列重要成果：啟動了欽州國際集裝箱碼頭統一運營儀式、中谷欽州集裝箱多式聯運物流基地開工儀式、北部灣國際門戶港港航互聯服務平臺上線儀式;開通了東盟（柬埔寨）至北部灣港水果快線;發布了廣西水運港口發展基金;欽州—北海—防城港港口型國家物流樞紐共建共治聯盟簽約;廣西北部灣國際港務集團有限公司與浙江省海港投資運營集團有限公司簽署戰略合作協議;廣西防城港市人民政府與重慶國際物流集團有限公司簽署“東南亞冷鏈海陸快線”冷鏈班列合作協議。通過這一系列成果落地，將匯聚各方力量，把北部灣國際門戶港打造成世界一流港口。

高質量建設“陸海新通道”，助力國際供應鏈發展

以中國西部地區為關鍵節點，利用鐵路、海運、公路等運輸方式，通達新加坡等東盟國家，并進而輻射中東及歐洲等區域的“陸海新通道”，是中國西部地區實現與東盟及其他國家區域聯動和國際合作、有機銜接“一帶一路”的復合型對外開放通道。當前，隨著這條新通道的發展愈發迅速，新通道建設也得到更多國家的關注和推動。在本屆論壇上，與會嘉賓也提出要從基礎設施、政策協同、產業布局等方面高質量建設“陸海新通道”，助力國際供應鏈發展。

“隨著東盟與中國經貿合作的不斷深化，區域各國之間的物流與采購需求將大幅增加，物流業也會迎來新的發展機遇，為此我建議從促進國際區域通關一體化、加強信息交流、建立各方參與的大合作機制等方面共同推動‘陸海新通道建設，助力國際供應鏈的發展。”新加坡太平船務集團執行主席張松聲說。

重慶人民政府口岸和物流辦公室主任胡紅兵則認為，高質量建設“陸海新通道”，要加快構建垂直整合的產業鏈體系。為此，他建議：加強戰略協同，實現相向而行;加強組織協同，確保同頻共振;加強運營方面的協同，實現產業供應鏈、人流、物流、資金鏈深度融合發展;加強政策的協同，形成強大活力。

“相信在新通道沿線地區的共同努力下，‘陸海新通道一定可以高質量發展，行穩致遠，翻開歷史篇章。”胡紅兵這樣說道。
