The Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-city
In 2007, the idea of such an eco-city was formed. This was a strategic plan of China and Singapore to tackle the major challenges faced in terms of climate change, building a harmonious society, and sustainable development.
It was a major decision by the two countries to further develop a mutually beneficial cooperation and to deepen the partnership based on the earlier success of the Suzhou Industrial Park. The project was in line with the trends of the times, and would meet the current needs of China.
China responded to Singapore’s project proposal and quickly started the site selection and business negotiation processes. Six months later, Tianjin Binhai New Area was officially chosen as the site for the eco-city project.
A typical example of an eco-city - The Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-city” commemorates the 10th Anniversary of the Tianjin Eco-city. It documents the journey thus far, distilling the lessons learned and offer insights into the project’s future development.
