我省新余、萍乡地区煤铁资源极其丰富,厂矿也比较集中。随着工农业生产的发展,特别是国家的大型钢铁公司在新余的建立,新余、萍乡两地区的基建项目日益增加,为工矿企业服务的单位、学校也相继成立,职工人数和居民迅速增长。新余和萍乡原来是县的建制,原有的机构已不能适应新形势发展的要求。为了进一步加强对新余、萍乡地区工农业生产和各项建设事业的领导,决定成立新余市和萍乡市。 Xinyu, Pingxiang area is extremely rich in iron and steel resources, factories and mines are also more concentrated. With the development of industrial and agricultural production, especially the large state-owned steel companies in Xinyu, the infrastructure projects in Xinyu and Pingxiang are increasing day by day. The units serving the industrial and mining enterprises and schools have also been set up one after another, with a rapid increase in the number of workers and residents. Xinyu and Pingxiang originally formed the county system, the original institutions can no longer meet the requirements of the new situation. In order to further strengthen the leadership of the industrial and agricultural production and various construction projects in Xinyu and Pingxiang, it was decided to establish Xinyu and Pingxiang.
