吉林省政协港澳委员支招吉林与大湾区“双向奔赴”******
中新网长春1月17日电 (郭佳 高龙安)正在长春召开的吉林省两会上,吉林省政协港澳委员围绕吉林振兴发展议题广献良策。多位委员认为,吉林发挥好自身优势即可与粤港澳大湾区“双向奔赴”。
粤港澳与吉林经济交流日益密切,在不少产业布局上高度互补,特别是香港,多年来一直是吉林利用外资的重要来源地。截至2022年9月,港资在吉林省投资企业超过400户,累计直接投资约85.4亿美元,两项数据均位居在吉林投资国家和地区首位。
吉林省政协委员、招商局金融控股有限公司副总经理朱立伟接受记者采访时表示,吉林与粤港澳大湾区虽有千里之遥,但中国有先进的互联网技术和发达的现代物流体系,地域合作的时空限制早已被重塑,这也是中国构建全国统一大市场的底气。
吉林省政协委员李云 高龙安 摄朱立伟认为,吉林是科教大省,又是老工业基地,基础性研究和应用性研究都有深厚底蕴,其实这是粤港澳大湾区目前发展所需要的,而吉林的新能源汽车、氢能源、新材料等蓬勃发展的产业,又需要高质量、多方位的金融支持,这是粤港澳大湾区能够发挥长处的地方。
吉林省政协委员、澳门清华科技海外公司执行董事李云认为,吉林中医药资源丰富,中医药产业居中国领先水平,在中医药理学研究、制药、临床、药物制定标准等方面也有明显优势,这与澳门中医药产业发展的需求完全契合。
李云介绍,多年来,澳门一直积极致力于发展现代工业,但受澳门面积狭小、工业基础薄弱等因素影响,发展中医药产业反而成为澳门一个重要的现实选择。未来3年到5年,在此领域各种资本投入预计可达百亿元人民币的规模。
李云建议,澳门、吉林两地要持续加强务实对接,建立官方机构和信息平台,为两地中医药从业人员、专家学者、商业机构、工厂提供便捷服务和信息支持,实现重要政策信息、商业信息、投资信息、学术信息共享共用。
港澳委员还围绕吉林的农业、冰雪产业展开热烈讨论,不少委员认为,可充分利用香港全球贸易中心地位,打响吉林农产品和冰雪资源在国际上的影响力。(完)
中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾****** 中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文·麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。 资料图:美国众议院共和党领袖麦卡锡。中新社记者 沙晗汀摄 由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。 麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。 一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。 此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。 作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。 美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。 这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。 从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。 两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。 House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy (ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy". The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader. Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party. On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration. On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses. Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees. As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives. But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker. CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful. This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally. Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits. From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public. Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world. The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
