甘肃、宁夏、青海三省区是西部地区的重要组成部分,三省区地缘相近,经济社会发展总体相近又各有特色,具有很强的互补性。建立青甘宁黄河上游经济带,对推进三省区经济文化交流与合作、推动区域经济社会更好更快发展具有十分重要的意义。 The three provinces and autonomous regions of Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai are important components of the western region. The geographies of the three provinces and autonomous regions are similar and their economic and social development are similar in general and have their own characteristics and are highly complementary. The establishment of the Qinghai-Gansu-Ningxia Economic Belt along the upper reaches of the Yellow River is of great significance to promoting economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation among the three provinces and regions and promoting a better and faster development of the regional economy and society.
