Argentina is a federal country. Although it looks like a whole, it feels somewhat fragmented. The gap between rich and poor and regional differences are obvious. The provinces of Buenos Aires, Cordoba, La Pampa, and Santa Fe The province has a large population, strong strength, rapid development, and strong influence. It can also form a certain check and balance with the presidential palace.
The province of La Pampa can also be regarded as a small Argentina. The provincial capital Blanca is the most prosperous and powerful, followed by the former provincial capital Santa Rosa. The three coastal cities are developing rapidly, and the remaining areas are dilapidated and sparsely populated.
These are just simple descriptions of economic development. An important reason is that the degree of centralization is far from enough and each country operates independently.
St. Hessecon tried to use his own power to transform and reform the administrative structure of La Pampa Province, and so far he has achieved some small success.
From a federal system to a unitary system, it is a process of centralization, a process of synergy, and a process of reform.
City halls in various places responded one after another, carried out vigorous mergers, and began to establish a new provincial system headed by the provincial government office.
This is a long-term process. Under the current city hall election system, Argentina can be said to be a country with a very deep federal system tradition, and change does not happen overnight.
In the future, the Provincial Government Department can be responsible for coordinating the operations of the entire province to achieve rapid implementation of policies, unified and efficient basic economic construction, cultural and commercial exchanges between cities, and efficient and complete rule of law.
As the second largest economic province in Argentina, La Pampa Province has even more advantages than Buenos Aires Province. Everything is cheap here. Taking advantage of the short window period, it is establishing a relatively complete light and heavy industry system. The prototype, this is the economic foundation.
The prestige of St. Jose himself and the Southern Radical Party under his leadership were political guarantees.
Judging from the current situation, there is already a somewhat successful trend.
Of course, it is too early to say success.
As far as the economy and industry are concerned.
San Jose's industrial development goal for La Pampa Province is to be similar to New China's Qilu Province, and this is also the direction he is targeting.
After Qilu Province entered the new millennium, its development has lagged behind the economic leaders Guangdong and Jiangsu Provinces. However, its primary, secondary and tertiary industries are extremely developed. It has the most powerful chemical industry in China, a strong steel industry, and agricultural development. Very powerful. Compared to Guangdong and Suzhou, he can be said to be a strong man with well-proportioned muscles.
However, Guangdong Province is subject to many reasons including development, history, and the death of each three-level administrative district. The gap between core areas and non-core areas is often jokingly called the same gap between Europe and Africa.
Jiangsu Province has always been ranked second, and the development of the three-level administrative regions is more balanced. There are almost no weak ones, but there are some minor problems such as the debt of the invisible third-level administrative regions. However, this does not affect the strength of Jiangsu Province at all.
As one of the top three teams, this is not something San Jose can touch. He is psychologically more inclined to the industrial system of Qilu Province. The current shortcoming of La Pampa Province is also that the industrial system is imperfect.
To establish an industrial system, it is not just about building a few factories that can be considered a success.
San Jose now has to remove institutional obstacles to industrial development in the province of La Pampa.
Establish La Pampa Province as a unitary province with unified political orders and centralized power. This can generate a strong economic impetus in a short period of time. Administrative power can also be used to raise large amounts of debt to attract Argentine domestic capital to La Pampa Province. Invest and develop to create an agglomeration effect.
The current trump card of La Pampa Province is Blanca City. It is a single company and has formed a star effect. This is also a path that late-developing provinces can learn from.
Concentrate the main efforts to fully develop major cities to combat the siphoning of talents and capital from other first-tier domestic cities and avoid flight.
This was done when San Jose was in charge of the city of Blanca, and now it is time to copy this model.
The goal of concentrating on the development of Blanca City will not change, but we will begin to use administrative power to transform the system of La Pampa Province, and then organize elite troops and strong generals to copy the system of Blanca City, at least ensuring that the three coastal cities and Santa Rosa City The development of these four cities can also help the development of Blanca City.
The power and potential of a city is always limited, but the power and potential of a province can be completely different.
It is already difficult to double the population of Blanca City in the short term, but it is not too difficult for the province of La Pampa.
The natural conditions of La Pampa Province are not bad, and although Argentina's wealth is a thing of the past, it does not affect the current mindset of the poor in neighboring countries. This will not be transmitted in a short time.
This gives San Jose a lot of room to maneuver.
Let the three small coastal cities develop a foreign trade processing system, which can be processing with supplied materials or export-oriented.
As for where the factory comes from, it is investment promotion and the expansion of existing factories.
The main external market is Europe and the United States, and other regions in Latin America are also huge markets, which are enough to support the development of the coastal area of La Pampa.
The current La Pampa province does not even have an export trade worth 1 billion US dollars, which is unremarkable.
As for whether the products produced are competitive or not, they are already quite advantageous. In terms of various production equipment, most of them have reached the world's second-rate level, and the quality is not bad. The most important thing is that the products produced are really cheap.
The road has been paved for the education of the labor force. After San Jose invested heavily in it, the development of basic education in La Pampa is not bad now.
The development of higher education takes time, but basic education only needs to be oriented to the city of Buenos Aires. It is not easy for ordinary university graduates in the capital to find jobs, and Blanca City can provide them with a job. A stable and well-paid teaching job.
From the perspective of Argentina's manufacturing in Blanca City, it is no longer far behind the first-class countries.
The textile and garment industry, food processing industry, and processing of supplied materials in the three coastal cities have all slowly taken off.
The factories in Blanca City can also get more orders as a result. The important role of Santa Rosa City is to connect the western, northern and southern provinces and provide raw materials for the development of coastal cities, such as petrochemicals, various energy metals and minerals, Timber transfer center.
Saint Jose always believed that as long as the distribution of benefits is reasonable, everything can cooperate, so he can successfully obtain the support of municipalities in various places for reforms.
All San Jose has to do is keep growing the pie and spreading it out.
As long as officials are willing to support him, they can basically obtain sufficient benefits.
It all started in the city of Blanca, and since the city was integrated into a unitary city hall, it has burst out with strong development potential.
Although the Blanca City Hall has paid a high price in this reform, it has also truly gained support from all over the country. Being the boss of La Pampa Province will not work if you only become rich yourself. The younger brothers are all poor. Deadly.
With just one city, the best it can do is create Singapore. This is not what San Jose wants. He wants to be more long-term. What he wants is a strong La Pampa province.
This is the reason why many citizens and officials in La Pampa Province are willing to support the reform of San Jose. The new high-ranking officials really give money to people. The development of Santa Rosa, the original provincial capital, is a good example.
Of course, Saint Jose is not easy to fool. This time he sent 17 of his direct descendants to lead their team to take over the reform work of the newly established municipal administrative district. These are all except the mayor of Nueva Blanca. It was time for the people he had carefully cultivated to stand alone.
This will also allow him to open up more lucrative positions and attract more talents. There will be many vacant positions in the La Pampa Provincial Hall and Blanca City.
A new round of civil service examinations has begun. This time it is open to all of Argentina. The recruitment scale is five times that of the previous two examinations. This can also be seen from the side of the scale of the talents "transported" by Saint Jose.
Anyone with a bit of vision in the local area knows that these people are his direct descendants, and there is no need to confront them. If you don't have the vision or can't control the situation, just retreat.
As for his subordinates' ambitions, he didn't care. He was afraid that his subordinates would not have ambitions.
In this way, with the support of the people, things will go smoothly, not to mention that all the city halls in various places were very poor. Now, although it seems to be damaging the Blanca City Hall, the citizens of Blanca City are also willing to support such financial reforms. , this is the charm of publicity, and it is not completely bragging and making excuses.
Only by working together can we develop. Blanca City has expanded dozens of times from an area of 100 square kilometers, and the urban area has also expanded crazily. Now we are closely united. Under the leadership of Blanca City Hall, the economy has developed rapidly.
From bulk to collective, the city of Blanca has truly been transformed, and this is a ready-made example.
Before coming to Blanca, many people in Blanca had seen the bustle of Buenos Aires, but only after witnessing the rise of a city and enjoying the dividends of development would they be willing to support San Jose. s reason.
Reform will not happen overnight; it is a long-term process.
........
This election actually exposed many problems with the Radical Party and Saint Jose himself.
It also shows that many of Saint Jose's political thoughts are too idealistic, and also exposes his childishness.
Fortunately, St. Hesse also made timely adjustments, allowing things to develop for the better.
He is somewhat dissatisfied with Argentina's campaign system of paying money to buy votes.
This has led many politicians running for election to keep making promises. In order to gain status, politicians have given out money that can be used for economic construction directly as welfare. After their term ends, the economy is still in a mess.
Issuing large amounts of banknotes also causes inflation.
Saint Jose prefers economic investment, infrastructure construction, and factories. He believes that this is what is truly useful for development.
The success of this election broke through the past campaign model of deceiving people and giving out money to get votes. In addition to the fact that the Southern Radical Party headed by Blanca did have some foundation, it has evolved a lot.
Paying money to get votes is quick, but the consequences are endless.
The big difference between Argentina now and history is that the scale of money distribution is not as large as in the past, which makes the peso not depreciate as fast.
Trade export volume has begun to approach historical highs, and has even begun to catch up.
If the currency depreciates moderately, it can indeed create an export advantage, and a stable price index will help Saint-Jesse gain votes.
The cost of living in Blanca is now even lower, more than twice as low as in Buenos Aires. This is equivalent to the same salary of 5,000 pesos, but you can get more quality of life and services in Blanca. .
Generally speaking, in the process of urban development, the development of industry and commerce and the development of public infrastructure often cause urban land prices to rise by leaps and bounds, forming a soaring trend. In this way, some people may become rich in a short period of time, corresponding to urban slums.
This is also the reason why the cost of living in Buenos Aires is so high. Rent and housing prices are extremely high.
When San Jose was in charge of Blanca City, he strictly controlled land prices, provided a large number of low-cost housing, tube houses, encouraged local people to build farmers' houses, urban villages, accepted unified planning, and provided the same infrastructure, which made the rent in Blanca City rise. very low.
Other daily necessities such as vegetables, fruits, and meat are very cheap. Blanca City also has the largest number of department stores in Argentina.
In order to absorb more deposits for construction, the interest rates in the banking industry in Blanca City are the highest in Argentina. Even wealthy people and landowners in many other provinces and cities also deposit their pesos in the banks in Blanca City.
Some of Saint Jose's development ideas have gradually been recognized by a group of people. For example, population is the foundation of the country, and encouraging fertility can strengthen the country and consumption.
The Provincial Department of La Pampa also released the first five-year economic plan of La Pampa Province. The goals focus on increasing agricultural production, accelerating the development of industry and mining in inland areas, and fully supporting Blanca City’s energy, emerging industries, and heavy industries. For the development of the chemical industry, the three coastal cities and the city of Santa Rosa will provide key support to expand import and export trade, create more employment opportunities, and promote and support private capital while expanding the development of state-owned capital.
At the request of the Provincial Department of Government, Blanca City Hall has truly established an Argentine "Special Economic Zone", integrating the functions of a free trade zone, a duty-free zone and an industrial zone to expand foreign trade, attract industrial investment, and introduce the latest technology. , to increase employment opportunities in the Lingang Export Processing Zone in Blanca City, and the area of the export processing zone has been expanded to 40 square kilometers.
The Lingang Industrial Zone in Blanca City was officially upgraded.
The coastal cities of Otto, Bratovic, and Porto Colorado have also announced the establishment of their own export processing zones and received financial support from the La Pampa Provincial Office.
