The Tianjin Binhai New Area brings innovation into administrative and social reforms by increasing efficiency and taking on new public projects, said Qin Haiying a researcher from Nankai University's Binhai Development Research Institute.
Among the novel features that characterize the new area's administrative approach are approval service centers, governmental divisions dedicated to handling applications for business and political affairs.
This year, the centers have handled more than 50,000 applications and administrative affairs. The average duration of the procedure has been shortened from 8.75 days to 5.74, a 34.4 percent increase in efficiency.
