ABSTRACT

In the process of promoting the construction of the Inner Gateway, the synergistic effect of the Liangjiang New Area and the Tianfu New Area is an important issue. To solve this problem, this study comprehensively assesses the practical effects of the Liangjiang New Area and Tianfu New Area in promoting regional economic integration, optimizing the industrial structure and improving openness by studying the calculation method of the nearest neighbour index and the volume of economic and trade exchange. The results showed that the spatial disparity between the two regions was close to or above 0.9 and the volume of economic and trade exchange in Tianfu New Area reached 677. The study showed that the strategy of the Liangjiang New Area and Tianfu New Area working together to form an internal opening gateway has significant advantages and provides a strong impetus for the quality development of the regional economy.
