On November 14th, Mr. Peng Qinghua, Secretary of Sichuan Provincial Committee of the CPC, went to Chengdu and Deyang to get a clear picture of the progress made in developing private economy and protecting ecological environment. He stressed the need to thoroughly implement the spirit of the important speeches of General Secretary Xi Jinping made at the symposium for private enterprises. We should carry out across the board deployments of the central government. That requires us to encourage and support the development of the private economy, and try every means to solve the difficulties faced by private enterprises. With that being done, we are going to make Sichuan an enabling piece of land for the healthy development of private enterprises.

They drank coffee and talked about their stories of starting businesses. Mr. Peng Qinghua listened to their opinions and suggestions on promoting the healthy development of the private economy in our province. He said that General Secretary Xi Jinping is highly concerned with the development of the private economy. He has thus made several firm statements urging us to remain committed to the two major unshakable policies on various occasions and put forward a series of major measures to support the development of the private economy, which has greatly reassured the owners of private enterprises and boosted their morale. The private economy has grown side by side with reform and opening up. It has become an indispensable force for driving economic and social development. Today, we are very pleased to see so many young people engaged in innovation and entrepreneurship. All departments in the province must implement to the letter the requirements of central government, try hard to provide them with all-embracing, all-weather, and whole-process service, and offer them more convenient and efficient government services. These would help remove the burdens on private enterprises, thus making the entrepreneurial dream more possible for many startups.
