Title: Application of resource-oriented principle on determination of regional leading industry
Abstract: The determination of regional leading industry,which is the basis for the decision-making and planning of regional development,specifies the characters,functions and directions of a region.The resource-oriented principle(ROP),which was initially proposed to help enterprises to formulate their development strategy,was also used to provide the basis for the regional development and leading industry selection recently.However,few researches focus on the methodologies of determining regional leading industry based on the principle of ROP.Analytic hierarchy process(AHP),one of the most effective methods in multi-criteria decision making(MCDM),was proposed to quantify the supporting degree of industries received from different natural resources in this study.Firstly,the linking network between the natural resources and industries was built.Secondly,the supporting degree of industries received from different natural resources was quantified by expert judgment method.The industry with the highest level of supporting degree was selected as the coastal zone regional leading industry.The Xiamen was selected as a case,and the result shows that the tourism should be the coastal zone leading industry of Xiamen for sustainable use of its natural resources.The method in paper provides a new method to determine the coastal zone regional leading industry scientifically.
