This report recommends: leverage existing transport infrastructure and supplement it with better integration between land, air, and water transport to build a major logistics hub; strengthen cooperation with Chengdu, Sichuan, and other regional partners to promote regional economic integration; and improve digital infrastructure with faster internet connection speeds and promote the wider adoption of digitization of services. 2019-03-14T16:06:05Z 2019-03-14T16:06:05Z 2019 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/260931552367566283/Chongqing-2035-A-Regional-Strategy-to-Increase-Connectivity-and-Economic-Integration-Supporting-Report-2 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/31389 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: City Development Strategy Economic & Sector Work East Asia and Pacific China
