We can see from the above that:
(1) Sales of Golden Dragon buses in Jan.-August 2012 decrease by 1.77% over last year, nearly 10% less than industrial average, which means Golden Dragon is the only enterprise that decreases among the four bus manufacturers.
(2) Sales of Golden Dragon buses in most lengths decrease, and only sales of 11-12m, 9-10m and 3.5-5m increase, especially 3.5-5m.
(3) Product structure of Xiamen Golden Dragon is not rational that sales of below-8-meter account for 64%, increasing a little over last year.
