Hebei has three ports with total cargo handling capacity of more than 800 million metric tons, ranking third in the country.

According to Zhang, about 700,000 migrant workers from Hebei are working in Tianjin, accounting for 16 percent of that city's migrant worker population.

He also said that transportation links between Tianjin and Hebei are improving.

Hebei sees gains from ties with major cities

Zhang said the three provincial-level governments have established working mechanisms in air and water management and will work together to curb pollution.

There will also be more regional cooperation in the areas of education and science.

Various cities in Hebei have already worked with the Zhongguancun Science Park in Beijing, as well as universities in the capital.

Baoding, which is about 160 kilometers from Beijing, is one of these cities. In June last year, the city and the science park signed a cooperation pact.

Some companies in Zhongguancun will move to Baoding, with future cooperation details under discussion, according to Nie Ruiping, Party chief of Baoding, also an NPC deputy.

Nie said coordination plans for the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region represent an opportunity for Baoding.

Baoding has also established 34 industrial parks. "We built industrial parks that offer land and policy incentives to attract big companies from Beijing," said Nie.

Those moves will ease the capital's pressure on the one hand, while boosting Baoding's efforts to make its industrial base more environmentally friendly.

"Hebei has many universities with talented youth and new technologies. An innovation park for college students and professors will [allow some of them to] turn research into practice," said Li Xiaoting, vice-president of Hebei University in Baoding.

On Feb 26, President Xi Jinping called for strengthening economic coordination in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. Premier Li Keqiang made a similar statement on March 5 at the opening of the National People's Congress, the top legislature.

Plans for coordination were written into the government work report for the first time and brought to the State level.
