Chinese vice premier Zeng Peiyan on Sunday called for greater efforts to
rejuvenate the old industrial bases in the country's northeast.
Northeast China should make unremitting efforts to optimize the economic
structure and develop the manufacturing industry, said Zeng, during his
inspection tour of the provinces of Heilongjiang and Liaoning.
Zeng urged major manufacturers in the region to make breakthroughs in
developing and producing power plant equipment, numerical-control machine
tools, heavy-duty machines and environmental protection facilities.
The vice premier also stressed further development of the electronics,
information, biological and pharmaceutical industries.
Northeast China, with a vast territory, rich resources and a solid
industrial foundation, would have bright prospects by improving the
efficiency of its economic growth and boosting economic and technical
cooperation with neighboring countries, said Zeng.
The region should also "do a good job in saving energy, reducing green
house gas emissions and protecting the environment in order to boost
overall, balanced and sustainable economic and social development."
When inspecting the regions of the Greater and Lesser Hinggan Mountains,
Zeng said the forests, water sources and wetland should be well
protected, and restrictions should be imposed on sectors that consumed a
lot of energy and discharged a lot of pollutants.
Water treatment facilities should be improved along the Heilongjiang and
Songhua rivers to ensure safe drinking water, said Zeng.
