This paper examines the geographical indication (GI) resources of medicinal herbs in the Wuling Mountain Area from various perspectives, including geographical indication products, geographical indication trademarks, China s geographical indication products mutually recognized and protected with the EU, geographical indication standards, and the exclusive geographical indication logo. It studies the regional public brand characteristics of Chinese authentic medicinal herbs, based on hometown of authentic Chinese medicinal herbs, advantageous regions of characteristic agricultural products, important agricultural cultural heritage, national famous and excellent new agricultural products, national characteristic agricultural products, geographical indication Chinese well-known trademarks, advantageous regions of characteristic agricultural products, and regional public brands of agricultural products. It analyzes the main problems in the protection of geographical indications and the creation of regional public brands, and proposes suggestions for building high-quality authentic medicinal herb bases, developing new quality productivity in the authentic medicinal herb industry, implementing regional brand strategies for authentic medicinal herbs, constructing a new development pattern of dual circulation authentic medicinal herbs, etc.展开更多

文摘In the context of the revolution in new technologies,a key question is whether the rapid growth of the digital economy,driven by digital technologies,has improved regional innovation performance.Using inter-provincial panel data from China(2012–2022)and adopting a business environment perspective,this study applies a Panel Extended Regression Model(PERM),a Panel Simultaneous Equation Model(PSEM),and a Tobit-IV model to analyze how the development of the digital economy influences regional innovation.The results reveal a pronounced U-shaped relationship between the digital economy and the regional innovation performance at the provincial level in China,with the business environment serving as a significant mediator in this relationship.Moreover,regional innovation performance in China exhibits a“ratchet effect,”with the impact of the digital economy varying markedly across regions.While the eastern and western regions have entered an upward phase,whereby the digital economy boosts innovation,the central region displays a weaker effect.Further analysis indicates that the synergy between the business environment and the digital economy in driving innovation remains suboptimal.These findings were supported by robust checks.This study offers theoretical insights and empirical evidence that support the coordinated development of digital government and the digital factor market,as well as business environment reforms that are in alignment with the innovation demands of the digital era.
文摘On December 19,2015,construction equipment including cranes and excavators stood at attention at Thailand’s Chiang Rak Noi Station.Then Chinese State Councilor Wang Yong and Thai Deputy Prime Minister Prajin Juntong lit the ceremonial cable,officially launching the China-Thailand Railway project.The 845-kilometer high-speed line will be Thailand’s first.It will stretch from Bangkok to Nong Khai on the Thai-Lao border and,once completed,will connect with the operational China-Laos Railway,enabling direct travel from Bangkok to Kunming,capital of southwest China’s Yunnan Province.Currently,most of Thailand’s rail infrastructure dates back more than a century.Most trains run at speeds below 50 km/h,using outdated carriages with safety risks.The China-Thailand Railway is expected to significantly improve this situation.

文摘By comprehensively analyzing the current status of education development and the achievements of economic development in China,this paper reveals the synergistic effect between the overall improvement of education levels and economic growth.The paper points out that although the increase in educational investment has provided talent support for economic development,the imbalance in regional education development still exists.Furthermore,the paper explores the two-way promotion mechanism between education and economic development,and proposes a series of strategies,including balanced layout,targeted support,and innovation-driven development,to achieve the coordinated and balanced development of regional education and narrow regional gaps.These strategies aim to optimize the allocation of educational resources,improve the quality of education,and promote the all-round progress of the economy and society.
