Hangzhou platform to better channel govt, enterprises

Hangzhou: Hangzhou, capital of East China’s Zhejiang province, announced the launch of an online platform on Monday to help the local government better serve enterprises more precisely and directly, in a bid to help them better shrug off the impact caused by the novel coronavirus epidemic.
Part of “City Brain”, an intelligent and smart system aimed at improving the city’s urban governance, the new platform, dubbed “Qinqing Online”, is designed to bring government departments and companies closer by building a service system on the internet, a direct channel connecting governments and enterprises.
According to Dai Jianping, executive vice-mayor of Hangzhou, the city has made innovative and successful attempts in the fight against the novel coronavirus based on its explorations into advanced technologies and the digital economy, such as a health code system and an online service platform to help companies resume work. “The new platform is an extension of these attempts and we hope to build a more precise and direct system to offer services to companies,” added Dai.
“The main functions of the platform make it possible that companies raise requests online and government departments make responses immediately,” he said at the launch ceremony in Hangzhou. According to Dai, policies and government affairs will be released and interpreted on the platform and users are able to evaluate government services online, which is believed to be helpful to push government departments to do better.
He noted that all functions of the platform are essentially a data integration and a re-engineering of government services, which are conducive to the improvement of the business climate and the development of the digital economy in Hangzhou.
