China's northeastern province of Jilin is making innovation a top priority in its development blueprint, said its top political leader Wang Rulin. Innovation can help boost development, solve problems and improve competitiveness, said Wang when he visited companies and research institutes in the provincial capital, Changchun, earlier this month. "That is why we should focus on innovation in the new round of efforts to revitalize the old industrial bases in Northeast China. And this way we can quicken our steps and build a modern pattern for Jilin's development," said Wang. To encourage innovation, the provincial government started a series of policies to offer "unprecedented, generous" financial and human resources support, according to local officials. Local authorities are also scaling up their investment in research and development, with the figure reaching 600 million yuan in 2013, 150 million yuan up from the previous year. Besides innovation, the government endeavors to boost private business in an effort to create a balanced economic landscape. |
