Agricultural production is stable, industrial production is stable, and modern service industry is booming. In 2023, Tibet firmly promoted high-quality economic development, focusing on expanding domestic demand, optimizing the structure, boosting confidence, preventing and defusing risks, and the region's economy continued to rebound, handing in a brilliant report card. According to accounting, the GDP of the whole region in 2023 was 239.267 billion yuan, an increase of 9.5% over the previous year at constant prices, ranking first in the country. Behind
a group of data, there are countless wisdom and sweat, depicting the journey of socialist modernization in the new Tibet, and the whole snowy plateau presents a new atmosphere of prosperity, development and prosperity. At the beginning of the Spring Festival in 2024, reporters came to the fields and factory workshops to feel the changes brought about by economic development.
In February, the reporter drove westward and saw three cement production lines of Tibet Gaozheng Building Materials Co., Ltd. (Hereinafter referred to as "Gaozheng Shares") in Duilongdeqing District standing on the hillside. Walking into the factory area, there is a modern industrial atmosphere everywhere. At present, the facilities and equipment in the factory area are in the maintenance period, and the original busy production line appears quiet and empty.
Gaozheng Co., Ltd. was founded in 2001. Its predecessor was Lhasa Cement Plant built in 1960. After its establishment, the company opened a new development process. Danzeng Dunzhu, deputy general manager of Gaozheng Stock Company, introduced that as a pioneer of cement industry in Tibet, after more than 60 years of rapid development, Gaozheng Stock Company has gradually become a comprehensive building material enterprise integrating cement, sand and gravel aggregate, commercial mixing, admixture and other extended industries. In 2023, the production and operation situation of Gaozheng Co., Ltd. was stable and good. The annual production of cement was 2.7534 million tons, an increase of 32.78% over the previous year, the production and sales of commercial concrete was 794,600 cubic meters, an increase of 26.03% over the previous year, and the production and sales of aggregate was 869,800 tons, an increase of 90.62% over the previous year. At the same time, Gaozheng shares actively build new advantages for development and effectively guarantee the construction of major national projects in Tibet. Since the construction of Sichuan-Tibet Railway, Gaozheng has adhered to the principle of "special kiln, special line, special warehouse and special supply", organized the production of iron standard clinker and cement in accordance with the requirements of relevant technical indicators of Sichuan-Tibet Railway, and fully guaranteed the supply of cement for the construction of Sichuan-Tibet Railway . By the end of 2023, a total of 563,800 tons of iron cement had been supplied to the 1-7 section of the Sichuan-Tibet Railway.
"In recent years, with the development of Tibet's economy and society, the traditional manufacturing industry has also stepped into the fast lane of development.". By innovating production technology, increasing professional training, promoting the transformation of production mode to digitalization and intellectualization, we strive to achieve energy saving, emission reduction, cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, and promote enterprises to gradually embark on the road of high-quality green development. Danzeng Dunzhu said, "At present, Tibet is in the stage of rapid development, and we are also facing new challenges and opportunities. In the future, we will continue to improve our production scale and capacity, further enhance our comprehensive competitiveness, and make more contributions to Tibet's economic and social development." The development
of Gaozheng shares for more than 60 years is a microcosm of Tibet's industrial development, and also bears a deep imprint of Tibet's rapid economic development. In recent years, Tibet's industrial economy has embarked on the road of high-quality, green and innovative development, built up a characteristic industrial system with clean energy, mining, building materials, Tibetan medicine, natural drinking water, processing of agricultural and livestock products, and high-tech manufacturing as the main industries, and gradually embarked on a new road of industrial and information development with Chinese and Tibetan characteristics. In 2023, the industrial production of the whole region remained stable, and the manufacturing industry achieved rapid growth. Among them, the added value of industries above scale increased by 8.7% over the previous year, 4.1 percentage points higher than the national average (4.6%).
