Every year, delegates of NPC & CPPCC are sparing no effort in making their voices heard by the central government. Moreover, they want their proposals to be adopted soon in order to produce positive effects for the well-being the Chinese society as a whole. So, what do the delegates of NPC and CPPCC from bus & coach industry have their say? Let’s take a closer look.
No.1: Proposal on the immediate replacement of old buses
LI Jindian, President of Liaoning SG Automotive Group Co., Ltd.: in recent years, China has sped up its urbanization process and the integration of urban and rural areas. However, the public transport facilities fail to keep pace with the overall development of China’s auto industry. According to statistics, over 120,000 units out of 380,000 buses in service nationwide can barely meet the National Ⅱ Emission Standard at present. What’s more, about 38,000 units of buses have already passed their duration of service, about 53,000 units are now approaching their service limit and 76,000 units in total have been in service for 6-8 years. Due to this, it will be a wise move if the government could take the initiative by subsidizing 2 billion RMB in total to replace the 40,000 out-dated buses still in service.
No.2: Proposal on the nurturing of a fair play ground in the coach market
LI Jindian, President of Liaoning SG Automotive Group Co., Ltd.: along with the central government’s call for the build-up of harmonious society, people from all walks of life have become increasingly concerned about the current urban public transport system. However, the local protectionism is rampant in various parts of China, which is not beneficial to the sound development of China’s coach industry. The department concerned should issue immediate directives to protect fair competition and a unified market across China.
