:Over the past decade, under the concerted endeavors of the central and regional authorities, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei collaborative development initiative has made substantial strides, yielding remarkable outcomes. This endeavor has particularly excelled in relieving Beijing’s non-core functions, integrating transportation systems, enhancing ecological governance, and orchestrating industry relocations, thereby significantly augmenting public satisfaction and well-being. This transformative journey has crystallized a wealth of valuable lessons. These experiences serve as living embodiments of Xi Jinping’s Thoughts on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. Looking ahead, it is imperative for the central government agencies and the respective administrations of Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei to proactively devise and implement tailored, efficacious policies to address the lingering institutional barriers, structural imbalances, collaborative challenges, and systemic inefficiencies impeding the current collaborative development process. Such measures would be instrumental in propelling the region towards high-quality development, ultimately laying a robust foundation for establishing a model Chinese modernization zone.
