中國西部大開發與東南亞區域經濟整合－大西南邊境貿易與湄公河流域開發之分析

Abstract

中國西部大開發中，大西南地區由於氣候條件以及自然資源的特色，使得中國在開發的時候，主要以水電、礦業、旅遊等大西南地區的特色資源，作為發展的主軸。而本區地處中國與中南半島交界的區位優勢，促成了大西南地區與東南亞源遠流長的邊境貿易的產生。再者，隨著中國在90年代以來與中南半島國家關係的改善，雙方合作開發湄公河流域的各項設施，如：交通運輸、水電、旅遊等，深化了中國大西南與東南亞區域經濟的聯繫。最後，以2002年ACFTA的構建，做為區域經濟整合的制度。筆者相信透過邊境貿易做為區域經濟整合的原動力、以湄公河流域開發計畫作為深化彼此關係的橋樑，最終以ACFTA作為整合的制度，必能加速整合中國大西南地區與東南亞區域經濟。

Under China’s Western Development Strategy, the Chinese government decided to develop hydro power, mining, and tourism as the first priority programs in south-west region based on the characteristics of the weather condition and nature resources. The Border Trade occurred long ago owing to the location advantage of south-west region between China and Indochina peninsula. Furthermore, as China improved the relationship with Indochina peninsula countries in 1990s, they cooperated to construct the facilities, such as transportation, hydro power, and tourism. It deepened the economic relation with each other. Finally, ACFTA which was signed in 2002 is a framework to integrate the regional economy. In that way, we firmly believe that it will accelerate the regional economic integration between south-west China and south-east Asia eventually.
