Abstract: The Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone is derived from the Yangtze River Economic Zone and a conception of wide river basin. According to the layout of water system in the future, the Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone includes not only the main stream of Yangtze River, but also the ecosystems comprised of headstream, main stream, branches and artificial rivers along the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River Economic Zone covers 9 provinces and 2 direct-controlled municipalities while the Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone covers 16 provinces and 4 direct-controlled municipalities. The coverage area extends since Qinghai Province, Henan Province, Shaanxi Province, Guangxi Province, Shandong Province, Hebei Province, Tibet, Shanxi Province, Guangdong Province, Beijing and Tianjin are added to this new wide river basin. Formation of the Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone is an objective reflection of increasing cooperation in economy and social aspects among provinces and cities. To guarantee the rapid development of each aspect in the Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone, such as economy and legality, this article suggests that a new department, named the office for coordinated development of Yangtze River Economic Zone, which aims at coordination of regional projects, should be established. This new department will be conducive to the practical work in the Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone.

Key words: the Pan-Yangtze River Economic Zone, wide river basin, the office for coordinated development of Yangtze River Economic Zone
