Districts plan to use their strengths in 'post-industrial era'

On the eastern coast of Xiamen, a cluster of tall buildings in Siming district shine with the logos of service companies.

It's not a coincidence, but the result of ongoing economic restructuring. Siming now has 119 buildings that house major enterprises and companies working in services ranging from auditing and shipping to legal services.

"After analyzing Siming's advantages, we chose to focus on high-end commerce, high-tech companies and distinctive industries," said You Wenchang, Party secretary of Siming. "Now the service sector accounts for more than 80 percent of our GDP."
