Gaoyou Business and Industry
“While in need of gold and silver mountains, we are in need of green water and blue mountains. Without green water and blue mountains, gold and silver mountains would not exist.”

During our recent visit to Gaoyou we saw examples of the industrial capacity
that Gaoyou has. A very large garment factory we toured was
impressive for its cleanliness, and good working conditions. We also
visited a just completed retail/wholesale garment district that will
put Gaoyou on the garment industry map now that it is open, and
filling with tenants.
I am very encouraged by the changes I see coming to
Gaoyou. A large, new, Renmin Hospital is rising behind the existing
hospital will better serve the district’s residents. I also saw a new,
several hundred unit, apartment block that would fit in well in an
upscale district in any US city.

In my earlier writings, I wrote of pollution issues facing Gaoyou. As
I’ve looked around my own city, I recognize that many of these problems
are universal. The citizens, and government, of Gaoyou are working hard
to address the environmental issues facing them. In the book New Gaoyou, New Span the leaders of Gaoyou recognize the importance
of the environment by writing “While in need of gold and silver
mountains, we are in need of green water and blue mountains. Without
green water and blue mountains, gold and silver mountains would not
exist.” With this concept in mind, Gaoyou is growing in a manner that
recognizes environmental impacts, strives to minimize them, and in the
process improves the quality of life for its citizens
