The recent development of the industrial sector must adhere to five principles, namely, the principle of market orientation, that of giving prominence to the key points, that of technical progress, that of coordinative development and that of sustainable development. We should proceed from the market to give full scope to the basic function of the market mechanism in allocating resources, and shall, by taking the adjustment of product structure, technical structure and enterprise organizational structure as the point of penetration, focusing on the development of new products, improvement of product quality, technical progress and reduction of costs, and prevention of pollution, intensify greater efforts in technical renovations, improve the level of process and technical equipment, and thus to form independent intellectual properties and products of famous brand with key technology. We should give full scope to the integral advantages of industry, optimize the distribution of industrial productive forces and the regional economic structure. We should continue eliminating the outmoded equipment, technologies and process, compress the superfluous and outmoded production capacity of some sectors, and promote the optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure. We have printed the Guidance of Recent Development in the Industrial Sector and hereby distribute it to you. Please abide by and implement it. Guidance of Recent Development in the Industrial Sector In order to carry out the spirit of the "Outline of the Tenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development", it is proposed in the "Outline of the Tenth Five-Year Plan for Industrial Structure Adjustment Planning" that the overall development target is to improve the integral quality and international competitive power of the industry, and to strengthen the ability of sustainable development. During the Tenth Five-Year Plan, we should, taking the enterprises as the main body, the market as the orientation, the development as the topic, the structural adjustment as the motif, and the improvement of the competitive power as the target, reasonably direct the contribution of public funds and foreign investments, adjust the public investment structure, improve the efficiency and benefits of using funds, so as to promote the structural adjustment of the industrial sector, and guarantee the realization of the target under planning. It is both the requirement of promoting industrial optimization and upgrading, and the urgent need in enlarging the domestic needs and stimulating the economic growth. The recent development orientation of the industrial sector is hereby proposed pursuant to the industrial development direction clarified in the industry and sector planning of the Tenth Five-Year Plan for the sake of strengthening the macro-control, leading the acts of market subjects, and optimizing the allocation of resources. The basic principles that we must adhere to, in the recent development of the industrial sector, are as follows: I. The principle of market orientation. Since 1990s, in respect of the market environment of China''s economic development, the sellers'' market has changed into the buyers'' market, and the restriction by supply has changed into that by demands. The formation of the buyers'' market marks that China''s industrial economy is entering into an environment of an overall competition, and the economic development has transited to a new stage. Therefore, each industrial sector must strengthen the analysis on market environment, foresee the development trend of both domestic and international technology economy, and determine according to the demands on the market the key direction of sector development and structure adjustment. II. The principle of highlighting key industries and products. We should accelerate the development of the industries and products with rapid growth in market demands, those of great impact to the overall situation of the development of national economy, those whose domestic production is presently unable to meet the demands, those closely connected with the industry, those with strong impetus, or those that are potential new points of economic growth, and should regard them as the key points of the recent development. Meanwhile, we should firmly stop the unreasonable repeated construction, and should, by supporting the advantageous enterprises to the realization of a certain large scale, high level and high quality, promote the structure adjustment of products. We should rectify the market and economic order, set up and improve the mechanism of selecting the superior and eliminating the inferior, as well as accelerate the elimination of the outmoded production capacity which wastes resources and pollutes the environment. III. The principle of technical progress. We should adhere to the principle of combining independent innovation with introduction of technologies, and emphasizing hardware transformation and software transformation, and should support the joint development of common industrial technologies, key technologies and perspective technologies. We should strengthen the information-based management of enterprises and the construction of marketing network, accelerate the training of the contingent of talented people, increase the necessary input, and raise the management level of enterprises. We should accelerate the transformation and upgrading of the traditional industries by using hi-techs and advanced suitable technologies, and make greater efforts to transform the traditional industries with wide market demands. We should also optimize the product and technical structure, improve the labor productivity, give scope to the advantages of scale economy, raise the level of technical equipment, and strengthen the enterprises'' ability of prompt reaction. We should not carry out the general transformation with the main targets to fill up vacancies and to enlarge production capacity. IV. The principle of coordinative development. We should give scope to the integral advantages of the industrial sector, increase the proportion of independently produced major equipment, and meet the demands in other manufacturing sectors in respect of reducing the cost of investment and raising the technical level; the reorganization and upgrading of energy industry and raw materials industry must aim at improving their international competitive power, and creating conditions for the downstream industries to participate in the international competition; we should make greater efforts in technical breakthrough and innovation, eliminate the "bottle-neck" restrictions in the industrial chain that impacts the integral competitive power; we should earnestly strengthen the geological prospecting, do well in the construction of mines, make full use of domestic and foreign resources, so as to provide guarantees to the continuing development of the basic raw materials industry and energy industry; we should give full scope to the comparative advantages, enable the industries in the eastern, the central and the western regions to develop coordinately, and assist the old industrial bases and western regions to accelerate their adjustment of industrial structure and industrial upgrading. V. The principle of sustainable development. We should give a prominent strategic position to saving the resources and protecting the environment, promote the technologies beneficial to saving energy, environmental protection and clean production. We should also adopt the strategy of controlling the source, reduce by a big margin the pollution caused by pollutants and poisons to the environment.
