Editor's note: 2025 marks the final year of China's 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25). During their annual "two sessions", Shanghai's districts outlined their agendas for the year ahead. Let's take a closer look.

In 2025, Pudong New Area is aiming for regional GDP growth of over 5 percent, a 3-percent increase in industrial value added, and a 2 percent increase in general public budget revenue.

The 2025 Pudong New Area's government work report emphasizes the integration of policies and measures to boost high-quality development, the implementation of national strategies to empower further reform and opening-up, and innovation as the primary driver for nurturing new quality productive forces.

The area highlighted the importance of building a strong urban landscape through the advancement of rural vitalization, integration of rural and urban areas, and efforts of city renewal and construction.

The cultural industry will be harnessed to boost regional cultural influence. At the same time, ecological projects will facilitate sustainable development for the future.

The report also stresses the supply of public services and improved security to safeguard people's livelihoods.
