QINGDAO, China, Nov. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
The 2020 list of "Happiest Cities in China" was unveiled at the Happy Cities of
China Forum held in Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang province on November 18,
2020. Qingdao is on the list.
The list was determined under the 2020 China's Happiest Cities Survey and
Selection program which, involving more than one billion participants, is
recognized as the most influential survey on cities in the country.
Themed "Happy and Moderately Prosperous Cities for the People", this year's
survey and selection focused on cities' initiatives to tap into the country's
"dual circulation" development strategy as well as efforts to improve local
governance and accelerate upgrading of city functions for the purpose of
building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way and achieving
high-level development, aiming to promote good practices of happy cities with
high-quality development. The "Happiest Cities in China" were selected through
big data analysis, questionnaire surveys, review of application documents,
field surveys and expert evaluation.
Following Chinese President Xi Jinping's instructions on Qingdao's development,
which are to "elaborately organize an event to energize the city", build a
modern international metropolis, provide a new platform for Belt and Road
international cooperation and integrate into the ecological protection and
high-quality development at Yellow River basin, Qingdao is enhancing efforts to
drive higher-level opening-up for higher-quality development, and has seen
increasing rise in happiness and livability indices.
In recent years, the CPC Qingdao Committee and the People's Government of
Qingdao have been endeavoring to increase local citizens' sense of happiness by
improving urban facilities and offering more considerate services. The city
launched the "Burning Passion to Contribute to Development of Qingdao" campaign
early this year to motivate local cadres to improve their professional
proficiency so that they can better serve the city's development, and is
developing fast toward an open, modern, vigorous and fashionable international
metropolis. Moreover, fiscal investment for the benefit of local people has
been expanded, and the local urban governance system and capacity have been
continuously improved. Thanks to that, the city has seen higher and higher
reputation and appeal, and the people have acquired higher senses of gain,
happiness and safety.
"As an important central city in the coastal area of China and an international
port city, Qingdao ranks top in terms of living quality, city attractiveness,
educational resources and other aspects," Dou Dejing, head of Big Data Lab and
Business Intelligence Lab at Baidu Research, said when giving a big data-based
analysis of Qingdao's advantages in the survey and selection program.
