区域统筹和协调发展是促进社会结构更为合理、社会生活更加和谐的重要机制之一。幸运的是，近年来区域差距在不断缩小，贫富差距的状况也在改善。而原因正是因为中西部经济发展速度远超东部。由此，中西部发展迅速，东部经济增速放缓，这已然成为中国当今较为显著的经济特征。

本文结合统计数据和相关的理论研究，描述东部增速放缓、中西部快速发展的表现，并分析产生“东慢西快”这一经济特点的原因。正是因为政府对中西部大力支持、大量企业由沿海向内陆转移，中西部经济优势不断扩大，才促使区域经济差距不断缩小。结合以上原因，本文也从三方面提出建议，希望促进产业转移、区域经济结构调整和深化产业合作，进一步实现区域统筹发展。

Regional coordination and coordinated development is one of the important mechanisms for promoting a more rational social structure and more harmonious social life. Fortunately, in recent years, the regional gap has continuously narrowed and the gap between the rich and the poor is improving. The reason for this is precisely because the speed of economic development in the central and western regions far exceeds that of the east. Therefore, the rapid development of the central and the slow development of western regions have become China's more prominent economic characteristics.

The article combines statistical data and relevant theoretical studies to explain the slow growth of the eastern region and the rapid development of the central and western regions. It also analyzes the reasons for the economic characteristics of “Eastern Slow and Western Fast”. It includes many reasons. Firstly, the government has spent vigorous funds on the central and western regions. Secondly, a large number of enterprises have shifted from the coastal areas to the inland areas. Last but not least, the advantages of factor endowments in the central and western regions have continuously expanded, which has led to the narrowing of regional economic disparities. Based on the above reasons, this article also proposes proposals from three aspects, hoping to promote industrial transfer, regional economic restructuring and deepening industrial cooperation, so as to further achieve regional overall development.
