Abstract:
In this paper, the regional effect of MICE region linkage effect refers to the effect of backward linkages and forward linkages in both regional and interregional level. The effect of backward linkage means the economic contribution, and the forward linkage means product supply capacity. This paper discussed the evolutionary characteristics and dynamic mechanism about regional linkage effect of MICE with Interregional Input-Output Model (IRIO) from 2002 to 2007. This study reveals, the economic contribution and product supply capacity of MICE are higher than the average level of the whole industries. The economic contribution showed a downward trend and product supply capacity showed an increasing trend. The economic contribution in central, western area is higher than that of eastern area, but the pulling ability become weaker in central, western areas, and stronger in the eastern regions. The MICE’s region linkages effect is related to technical progress, regional economic development level, regional development foundation of MICE, regional economic openness, regional industrial structure and industry specialization degree.
