Can Industrial Restructuring Improve Urban Air Quality?—A Quasi-Experiment in Beijing during the COVID-19 Pandemic

The conflict between economic growth and environmental pollution has become a considerable bottleneck to future development throughout the world. The industrial structure may become the possible key factor in resolving the contradiction. Using the daily data of air quality from January to April in 2019 and 2020, we used the DID model to identify the effects of industrial structure on air quality by taking the COVID-19 pandemic as a quasi-experiment. The results show that, first, the impact of profit of the secondary industry on air quality is ten times higher than that of the tertiary industry. Therefore, the secondary industry is the main factor causing air pollution. Second, the effect of the reduction in the secondary industry on the improvement of air quality is better than that of the tertiary industry in Beijing. Therefore, the implementation of Beijing’s non-capital function relief policy is timely and reasonable, and the adjustment of the industrial structure is effective in the improvement of air quality. Third, PM2.5, NO2, and CO are affected by the secondary and tertiary industries, where PM2.5 is affected most seriously by the second industry. Therefore, the transformation from the secondary industry to the tertiary industry can not only solve the problem of unemployment but also relieve the haze. Fourth, the result of O3 is in opposition to other pollutants. The probable reason is that the decrease of PM2.5 would lead to an increase in the O3 concentration. Therefore, it is difficult to reduce O3 concentrationby production limitation and it is urgent to formulate scientific methods to deal with O3 pollution. Fifth, the air quality in the surrounding areas can also influence Beijing. As Hebei is a key area to undertake Beijing’s industry, the deterioration of its air quality would also bring pressure to Beijing’s atmospheric environment. Therefore, in the process of industrial adjustment, the selection of appropriate regions for undertaking industries is very essential, which is worth our further discussion.


Introduction
The conflict between economic growth and environmental pollution has become a considerable bottleneck to future development throughout the world [1]. Economic growth is the ultimate aim for every policymaker [2]. With the development of technology, production efficiency has been greatly improved, but due to the rapid expansion of production scale, economic development still brings many environmental problems [3]. During the deepening of urbanization, industrial agglomeration and the increase of urban population have caused many environmental pollution problems, especially the increasingly serious atmospheric environment problems. In contemporary society, air pollution has become a global city disease. In recent years, a large number of exhaust emissions have posed a challenge to the sustainable development of the economies of all countries around the world [4,5], and continue to endanger the health of urban residents. Air pollution causes urban residents to suffer from the respiratory system, heat, and skin disease [6][7][8]. Air pollution has become a stumbling block restricting regional economic development. Finding a conducive to more comprehensive consideration of the formulation of national strategies. However, since many factors affect air pollution, the air quality improvement brought by industrial structure adjustment may be endogenous, and the effect of policies is difficult to evaluate. The COVID-19 pandemic provides an opportunity to analyze the effects on air quality of industrial structure adjustment as it has reduced human activities [29] and changed the industrial structure in a short time. The coronavirus disease had massive impacts on society and the economy across large parts of China, including Beijing [30][31][32][33]. Therefore, COVID-19-related restrictions, both mandated and voluntary, have, in effect, created a "natural experiment".
This study aims to clarify the impact of industrial restructuring on urban air quality, estimate the effect of non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing on air quality, and uncover possible improvements. To this end, based on the daily air quality and meteorological data of Beijing from January to April in 2019 and 2020, we used the difference in difference (DID) model [34] to identify the effects of industrial structure on air quality by taking the pandemic as a natural experiment. This paper offers some important insights: firstly, we conducted comparative research based on the assumption that the pandemic provided a quasi-experiment to estimate the outcome of industrial restructuring on air quality, which created a treated group. The use of DID effectively alleviates the endogenous problems such as the correlation between error terms and explanatory variables caused by missing variables, which provides evidence for accurately identifying the impact of industrial structure on air quality. Secondly, we specifically analyzed the heterogeneity of the five pollutants affected by industrial adjustments and found that limiting production is not an effective way to control ozone pollution. Thirdly, we evaluated the effectiveness of non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing, aimed at providing a reference for the future improvement of the policy. These could also be general lessons for other countries to probably learn from existing evidence in Beijing air governance.
The rest of the paper presents the methodology and data (Section 2), empirical results (Section 3), and robust test (Section 4). Finally, we conclude in Section 5.

Variables and Data
The air pollution variables are measured by air quality index (AQI) which is calculated by five air pollutants, including SO 2 , PM 10 , PM 2.5 , CO, NO 2 , and O 3 [35][36][37]. AQI focuses on assessing the health effects of breathing polluted air for hours, and AQI presents six pollutants with unified evaluation standards. Therefore, we extracted the hourly data of AQI from January to April in 2019 and 2020 in Beijing (pek), and then calculated the daily average. It was obtained from the China Environmental Monitoring Center by weighting data from 24 monitoring stations in Beijing (the spatial distribution of stations is shown in Appendix A Figure A1). The ready dispersal of air pollution [38,39] determines that the control of the air quality depends not only on the emission reduction in a city but also on the pollutant control from the surrounding areas [40][41][42]. Therefore, Beijing's air quality may also be affected by the air quality of surrounding areas. We extracted the hourly data of AQI from January to April in 2019 and 2020 in Hebei Province, namely Baoding (bad), Chengde (chd), Langfang (laf), Zhangjiakou (zjk), Shijiazhuang (sjz), Tangshan (tas), Qinghuangdao (qhd), Handan (had), Cangzhou (caz), Hengshui (hes), and Xingtai (xit), and then calculated the daily average (NEIA). In order to analyze the heterogeneity of the impact that affects different pollutants, we used PM 2.5 , O 3 , NO, CO, and SO 2 as alternative indicators. The data was from China Environmental Monitoring Center (http://www.cnemc.cn/ accessed on 25 November 2021).
In the existing research, the industrial proportion has been used as the measurement index of industrial structure [43], but in fact, the adjustment of industrial structure should also consider the industrial profit, which can also reflect the industry restructuring. Therefore, we respectively used the profits of the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing as the proxy variable to measure the industrial structure (TECP, TERP) of Beijing aimed at We used the daily passenger flow of Beijing Subway to represent the number of people choosing public transport in Beijing (passen). According to the statistics of the "Beijing Transport Development Annual Report", the passenger flow of Beijing rail transit was 3.85 billion passengers in 2018 [44]. The subway is one of the main public transportation methods for residents in Beijing. The data was from the daily passenger flow information published on the official Weibo website of Beijing Subway (available online at https:// weibo.com/bjsubway accessed on 8 October 2021).
In order to ensure the accuracy of the research results, we used meteorological data as control variables. Some air pollutants are water soluble; thus, rain may be one of the factors affecting air quality. Therefore, we chose the depth of liquid precipitation that is measured over a six-hour accumulation period to measure the rainfall (rain). Because of the flowing air, the wind can bring air pollutants from other areas or take local air pollutants away. We chose the rate of horizontal travel of air past a fixed point to measure the wind speed (speed). The ground temperature may accelerate the natural source emission or decomposition of precursors (such as VOCs) of some air pollution components (such as O 3 ) [45]. Therefore, we chose temperature (temp) as one of the control variables. The previous study shows that the air qualities in northern China had a prominent correlation with the pressure [46]. Therefore, we chose atmospheric pressure (pressure) as a control variable. We extracted hourly meteorological data such as wind speed from Beijing Meteorological Station (No. 545110), and then calculated the daily average, obtaining the daily data from China Meteorological Administration (http://www.cma.gov.cn/2011qxfw/2011qsjcx/ accessed on 15 October 2021).
In addition, this paper used multiple imputation, based on five replications and a chained equation approach method in the R multiple imputation procedure, to account for missing data [47,48].

Methodology
Previous literature on the relationship between industrial structure and environmental pollution is mainly based on OLS [49], threshold model [15], and SGVAR model [43], but they cannot solve the interference of missing variables, which will cause errors in the consistent estimation of parameters. It is always a difficult problem to effectively deal with the identification deviation caused by endogeneity. DID is a measurement method specially used for policy effect evaluation, which regards the implementation of the new policy as an exogenous experiment. As it is more and more mature, the DID model is gradually widely used in many fields. The DID model is able to reduce the problems of endogenous problems [50,51]. The pandemic can be seen as a quasi-experiment [29]. Compared with the traditional model, the research results by DID are more accurate and reliable [52]. Therefore, taking Beijing as an example, we constructed a natural experiment and used the DID model to identify the impact of industrial structure on urban air quality, and evaluated the implementation effect of non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing.
In order to estimate the impact of urban industrial structure on air quality, we used DID regression based on the daily data of air quality, meteorology, and industrial statistics in Beijing. This paper divided the data from January to April in 2019 and 2020 into the control group and the treated group. And we defined that the year with COVID-19 pandemic (2020) was the treated group, and the year without COVID-19 (2019) was the control group. Then, according to the time of pandemic restrictions, the treated group was divided into prepandemic restrictions and post-pandemic restrictions, and the control group was divided, as well. Theoretically, there should be no significant difference in air quality between the treated group and the control group in January. Since February 2020, due to strict pandemic restrictions, the pandemic might change the industrial structure and then affect the air quality. Therefore, we took the samples from 1 January 2020 to 30 April 2020 as the treated group, and the samples from 1 January 2019 to 30 April 2019 as the control group, with a total of 241 samples. The data distribution is shown in Table 1. Taking Beijing as an example, this paper used the DID model to analyze the impact of industrial structure adjustment on air quality. The model is set as follows: where Y t represents the interpreted variable, namely AQI (subscript t represents time series), PM 2.5 , O 3 , NO, CO, SO 2 ; SECP and TERP represent the industrial structure, SECP is the secondary industry profit and TERP is the tertiary industry profit; passen is the number of people choosing public transport; NEIA represents average AQI or specific pollutants of cities in Hebei Province; speed represents the rate of horizontal travel of air past a fixed point; rain is the depth of liquid precipitation that is measured over a six-hour accumulation period; temp is the daily temperature; pressure is the atmospheric pressure; λ t is the fixed effect, and ε t is the random error. treated is a dummy variable, indicating whether the research object is the treated group.
T is a treated period dummy variable, that is, only the treated group would be impacted by the policy during the treated period. On 23 January 2020, Wuhan announced closure of the city. From 24 January to 30 January, Chinese provinces successively announced strict control measures for the pandemic, which happened to be the Spring Festival holiday. In view of the general shutdown during the Spring Festival holiday over the years, the industrial restructuring caused by the pandemic could not be shown during the Spring Festival holiday. Therefore, we assumed that the policy impact occurred after the Spring Festival, that is, the impact of the pandemic on industrial restructure and human activities actually began in February 2020.

Descriptive Statistics
Descriptive statistics were calculated for the 241 samples. As can be seen from Appendix A Table A1, the average value of AQI in Beijing is 76.69, which is defined as "moderate" by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China, indicating that air quality is acceptable overall but for some pollutants, there may be a moderate health concern for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution. Compared with the average value, the maximum of the AQI in Beijing is 256.38, relatively large, which is defined as "very unhealthy" in the Technical Regulation on Ambient Air Quality Index. At that time, everyone should avoid all outdoor exertion and may experience more serious health effects. The results of other pollutants are similar. The results of AQI are also very similar in Hebei Province, with a "moderate" average value (95.63) and a "very unhealthy" maximum (286.13). Therefore, the air pollution in Beijing must attract attention.

Analysis of Time Heterogeneity of Beijing Air Quality
First, we compared the differences in air quality in Beijing before and after the pandemic. According to the results in Table 2, there was no significant difference in air quality in Beijing between January 2020 and January 2019. However, from February 2020 to April 2020, compared with February 2019 to April 2019, the average value of AQI decreased by 13.900, with the proportion similar to Bao and Zhang [53], which was significant at the level of 10%. It shows that the pandemic has indeed affected the air quality in Beijing. However, it is a bit lower than 18.2 in the study of Chen et al. [54]; the possible reason is that he also considered 2018. The difference of mean change can only make a rough statistic of the impact of pandemic shutdown restriction policy on air quality. To estimate the specific effect, a more accurate regression statistical analysis is needed.

Basic Regression Estimation
Initially, we tested the stationarity properties of the series using the augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test. The maximum lag order was 21 [55]. The sequences of the variables were stationarity. To test for multicollinearity among the explanatory variables, we generated a matrix (Table 3), and the maximum and minimum variance inflation factor (VIF) values were less than 10 and not less than 0, respectively. Therefore, it means there is no serious multicollinearity. In order to investigate the impact of industrial structure on air quality in Beijing, we performed OLS regression based on 241 samples of air quality, meteorology, and industrial statistics in Beijing. The regression results are shown in Table 4.
According to the results in Table 4, the profit of the secondary industry in Beijing would strongly increase the air quality at the level of 1% significant level (0.257), almost 30 times that of the tertiary industry (0.007). It shows that the development of the secondary industry would worsen the air quality in Beijing, and it provides support for the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing. The profit of the tertiary industry also has a positive impact on air quality, which is similar to the result found by He et al. [56]. In order to alleviate the urban disease in Beijing, the secondary industry should gradually transfer away from Beijing, which is consistent with the current industrial policy. Next, we analyzed the impact of the five pollutants by the industrial structure. SECP (0.205) and TERP (0.005) have a positive effect on PM 2.5 at a significant level of 1%, where the impact of SECP is more than 40 times that of TERP. The increase of the second industry significantly increases PM 2.5 in Beijing. The concentration of O 3 is also significantly affected by the industrial structure, with the fact that SECP (0.037) is nearly 25 times higher than TERP (0.0014). The increase in SECP would also cause an increase in CO at a significant level of 1%, which is more than 50 times that of TERP. However, O 3 and SO 2 are not significantly affected by the industrial structure. The possible reason is that the implicit assumptions of OLS are too strict and inconsistent with reality, so the results may not be accurate. Therefore, we used the DID model to measure the impact of industrial structure on air quality more precisely.

Parallel Trend Test
To more accurately verify the changes of air quality in Beijing before and after the shutdown caused by the pandemic, we constructed a natural experiment and used DID estimation to analyze, based on 241 samples from January to April in 2019 and 2020. An important premise for the effective application of DID method is to meet the parallel trend hypothesis, that is, without the shutdown caused by the pandemic, changes in the treated group (2020) are in line with the control group (2019), so that the average treatment effect obtained will not have estimation error caused by the periodic change of the sample itself. Therefore, we used Coefplot to carry out the parallel trend test. The test results shown in Figure 1 reveal that the coefficient does fluctuate around 0 before the outbreak, and the coefficient is negative after the outbreak shutdown, which demonstrates that the shutdown caused by the pandemic has alleviated air pollution. Thus, it can be determined that the sample data used in this paper meet the ex-ante parallel trend hypothesis. Therefore, we used Coefplot to carry out the parallel trend test. The test results sho Figure 1 reveal that the coefficient does fluctuate around 0 before the outbreak, a coefficient is negative after the outbreak shutdown, which demonstrates that the down caused by the pandemic has alleviated air pollution. Thus, it can be determine the sample data used in this paper meet the ex-ante parallel trend hypothesis.  Table 5 shows the estimation results of the DID model. The coefficient of treat which is most important, is 58.558 and significant at the level of 1%. It shows th change of industrial structure brought about by the pandemic does have a significa pact on Beijing's air quality. The coefficient of SECP (0.405) is more than ten times TERP (0.034), which is significant at the level of 1%, reflecting that the impact of th ondary industry profit on air quality is much higher than that of the tertiary ind Thus, the secondary industry is the main factor affecting air quality and causing a lution. Therefore, it is very necessary for Beijing to transform its industrial focus fro secondary industry to the tertiary industry, which is also in line with previous s [57,58]. Interaction item SECP × treated × T also has a significant negative effect o (−0.365) at the level of 1% and is much greater than the coefficient of the interactio TERP × treated × T (−0.031). It indicates that the pandemic has reduced the produc both the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing, which has significantly imp the air quality in Beijing. Moreover, the effect of the reduction of the secondary in on the improvement of air quality is better than that of the tertiary industry. The the implementation of the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing is very and reasonable, and the industrial restructuring is effective and significant to the im ment of air quality.   Table 5 shows the estimation results of the DID model. The coefficient of treated × T, which is most important, is 58.558 and significant at the level of 1%. It shows that the change of industrial structure brought about by the pandemic does have a significant impact on Beijing's air quality. The coefficient of SECP (0.405) is more than ten times that of TERP (0.034), which is significant at the level of 1%, reflecting that the impact of the secondary industry profit on air quality is much higher than that of the tertiary industry. Thus, the secondary industry is the main factor affecting air quality and causing air pollution. Therefore, it is very necessary for Beijing to transform its industrial focus from the secondary industry to the tertiary industry, which is also in line with previous studies [57,58]. Interaction item SECP × treated × T also has a significant negative effect on AQI (−0.365) at the level of 1% and is much greater than the coefficient of the interaction term TERP × treated × T (−0.031). It indicates that the pandemic has reduced the production of both the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing, which has significantly improved the air quality in Beijing. Moreover, the effect of the reduction of the secondary industry on the improvement of air quality is better than that of the tertiary industry. Therefore, the implementation of the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing is very timely and reasonable, and the industrial restructuring is effective and significant to the improvement of air quality.

Regression Results of DID
The regression results of the control variables indicate that passen has a significant negative impact on AQI (−0.034), which means that if more people chose public transport, the air quality would be better. The air quality of Hebei Province also has a significant positive impact on Beijing. An increase of 1% on the average AQI in Hebei Province will lead to a rise of 0.978% on AQI in Beijing. It shows that as Hebei is a key area to undertake Beijing's industry, the deterioration of its air quality will also bring pressure to Beijing's atmospheric environment. Thus, the air quality in the surrounding areas is also very important, which is consistent with the result of Tao et al. [29]. If the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing only relieves Beijing's secondary industry to the surrounding areas, it will not be able to maximize the effect of the policy, which may show the shortcomings of the current strategy. Different from the research results of Yu et al. [43], we find that the increase of wind speed will lead to the increase of AQI, which may be due to the fact that Hebei has already undertaken many manufacturing industries [59]. Therefore, the greater the regional wind speed is, the greater the impact of air quality in surrounding areas such as Hebei on Beijing will be.

Heterogeneity Analysis of Five Pollutants
We further analyzed whether there was heterogeneity in the impact of industrial adjustment caused by the pandemic on different pollutants. According to Table 6, the effects of the variables treated ×T on PM 2.5 , NO 2 , and CO are 48.979, 11.928, and 0.303, respectively, at the significance level of 1%. It shows that the pandemic does affect PM 2.5 , NO 2 , CO. The increase of SECP and TERP will significantly aggravate these pollutants such as PM 2.5 , NO 2 , and CO, which is in line with Pei et al. [60] and Xue et al. [61]. Combined with the previous OLS model results, the regression coefficient of SECP is the biggest on PM 2.5 (0.332) among the five pollutants, which means that PM 2.5 is affected most seriously by the second industry. Interaction item SECP × treated × T also has a significant negative effect on PM 2.5 (−0.303), NO 2 (−0.106), and CO (−0.002) at the level of 5%. It shows that the shutdown of the secondary industry has a significant impact on the improvement of the air quality, which is greater than that of the tertiary industry.
The impact of the pandemic shutdown on SO 2 is not very significant. The main reason may be that the main sources affecting SO 2 concentration in Beijing are the heating boiler and the general industrial boiler [11]. The heating industry is affected by temperature and has little correlation with the pandemic and the adjustment of industrial structure. Therefore, it is reasonable that the impact of the shutdown on SO 2 is not significant. The coefficients of SECP, TERP, SECP × treated × T, and TERP × treated × T on O 3 are opposite and significant compared to other types of pollutants. There are also several possible reasons. Researchers found that a decrease in PM 2.5 can lead to an increase in the O 3 concentration [62,63] because PM 2.5 can eliminate the precursors of ozone, including hydroxyl radicals and nitrogen-oxygen free radicals [64,65]. When the PM 2.5 concentration falls, the concentrations of hydroxyl radicals and nitrogen-oxygen free radicals in the air will increase, thereby promoting the production of ozone [66]. Furthermore, as PM 2.5 decreases, the higher amount of solar radiation would reach the near-surface air, thereby accelerating the photochemical reactions involved in ozone production, so more O 3 would be produced [67].

Placebo Test
The placebo test is one of the most commonly used robustness test methods in the DID model. In order to test whether the improvement of air quality is really caused by the impact of the shutdown, we made up the time node of the pandemic impact. The dates 10 January and 20 February 2020 are selected as fictitious nodes for regression. Table 7 shows that the estimated coefficients in both variables are not significant; thus, the pandemic shutdown did not play a role after the virtual time point, and the placebo test passed. It implies that after the Spring Festival in 2020, the air quality in Beijing has improved compared with the same period in 2019, which is indeed caused by the industrial changes brought about by the pandemic. Therefore, it can be considered that the research results of this paper are robust, and the conclusion is reliable.

Data Robust Test
Aimed at eliminating the specific regression results due to the particularity of the data, we used the daily data during 2019~2021 to replace the data from January to April in 2019 and 2020 for regression analysis. The method and other data are consistent with the previous regression. The DID regression results shown in Table 8 are roughly consistent with the main explanatory variables in Table 5 (SECP × treated × T, TERP × treated × T). Thus, it can be considered that the research results of this paper are robust, and the conclusion is reliable.  0.682 Note: *** p < 0.01, ** p < 0.05, * p < 0.10.

Conclusions
Based on the opportunity provided by the pandemic, this study aims to clarify the impact of industrial restructuring on urban air quality, estimate the effects of non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing on air quality, and uncover possible improvements. The research results show that, first, the impact of profits of the secondary industry on air quality is ten times higher than that of the tertiary industry. Therefore, the secondary industry is the main factor causing air pollution. According to the fourth national economic census of Beijing in 2018, which is the latest one in China, the revenue of Beijing's secondary and tertiary industries totaled CNY 18,310.34 billion. Among them, the secondary industry is CNY 3846.84 billion, accounting for 21.01%, while the tertiary industry is as high as CNY 14463.5 billion, accounting for 78.99%. The tertiary industry has become the pillar of Beijing's economic development nowadays. It means the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing has great progress. Second, the pandemic has reduced the production of both the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing, which has significantly improved the air quality in Beijing. Moreover, the effect of the reduction in the secondary industry on the improvement of air quality is better than that of the tertiary industry. Therefore, it is very necessary for Beijing to transform its industrial focus from the secondary industry to the tertiary industry. In 2018, 13.61 million people were employed in the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing. Among them, there were 2.036 million people in the secondary industry, accounting for 14.96%, and 11.574 million people in the tertiary industry, accounting for 85.04%. Therefore, the transformation from the secondary industry to the tertiary industry can not only relieve the pressure of air quality but also solve the problem of unemployment. Third, PM 2.5 , NO 2 , and CO are affected by the secondary and tertiary industries, where PM 2.5 is affected most seriously by the second industry, and the shutdown of the secondary industry can bring greater benefits. Therefore, the implementation of the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing is very timely and reasonable, and the adjustment of the industrial structure is effective and significant to the improvement of air quality. Fourth, the coefficients of O 3 are opposite and significant compared to other types of pollutants. The probable reason is that the decrease of PM 2.5 will lead to an increase in the concentration of O 3 . Fifth, the air quality of Hebei Province also has a significant positive impact on the air quality of Beijing, hence the aggravation of air pollution in Hebei will also bring pressure to Beijing's air quality control. Therefore, for the industrial adjustment in the process of air pollution control, reasonable planning of the region is very essential.
In the end, combined with the current situation of Beijing, we propose the following enlightenment to improve air quality: First, the implementation of the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing is very timely. The policy promotes the adjustment of the industrial structure in Beijing and effectively alleviates air pollution. These could also be general lessons for other countries to probably learn from existing evidence in Beijing air governance. Second, although the shutdown and restriction policy can improve PM 2.5 , NO 2 , CO, and other conventional pollutants, O 3 pollution cannot be reduced. O 3 can damage the respiratory tract and mucous membrane, without conventional protective methods to deal with. Therefore, it is urgent to formulate scientific methods to deal with O 3 pollution. Last but not least, under the non-capital functions relieving strategy in Beijing, Hebei is regarded as a key area to undertake Beijing's transfer industries, while the air pollution in Hebei will also infect Beijing. Therefore, in the process of industrial adjustment, the selection of appropriate regions for undertaking industries is very vital. We will pay attention to that in the future.
