The conference noted that the pac attached great importance to the development of the cotton industry, and that during the “1455” period, the construction of the system of cotton and textile clothing in xinjiang made ground-breaking progress. It is necessary to take advantage of the opportunities, maintain strategic strength, enhance confidence in winning, fully and accurately implement the new concept of development and the new age party's approach to governance, anchor the “five strategic positions” with a view to shaping the chinese national community's sense of identity, accelerate the long chain-relaying chain and promote the expansion of the cotton and textile clothing industries from volume to quality。
The meeting emphasized the importance of implementing the xinjiang medium- and long-term development plan for the textiles and clothing industry (2026-2035) in order to build industrial chains, promote industrial clustering and differentiation, and accelerate the construction of modern textile industrial systems with the characteristics and advantages of the xinjiang. The production of cotton should be stabilized by actively and reasonably reducing and optimizing the area under cotton cultivation. The regional layout of cotton processing capacity needs to be matched with the regional layout of growing areas through the adoption of specific policies to phase out and upgrade a stock of backward processing equipment. It is important to maintain an employment-oriented and south-border focus, to rationalize the allocation of resources and to capture key links such as technological innovation, branding and market expansion. It is necessary to strengthen the business mobilization and branding platform, actively take over the east-east industry transfer, strengthen the "sinjiang cotton" brand, and use the chinese cotton cotton trading centre platform, with a view to creating a strong indigenous brand。

The meeting called for greater integration of efforts, greater accountability, better scheduling of conferences, a combination of learning education on the development and implementation of sound political performance, improved coverage of feedback from central patrols and the precise resolution of congestion points in the development of the cotton textile and clothing industry in our region. It is necessary to deepen the synergy of forces, synchronize deployments, achieve quality recognition, price linkages, information-sharing, and create synergies for strong industries。
