In recent days, the public's attention to the Two Sessions has been increasing. Public opinion polls about hot topics of the Two Sessions have attracted more and more people to participate. According to the latest survey results, ten hot topics are most watched. People expect that the upcoming Two Sessions will respond to these issues related to national economy and people's livelihood.
Hot Topic One: Accelerating the Transformation of Development Mode, Expecting Breakthroughs in Key Areas
Although China successfully achieved a "V"-shaped reversal amidst the tumultuous waves of the international financial crisis, people also clearly see the "shortcomings" in development: in terms of demand structure, there is long-term reliance on investment and exports with insufficient consumer demand; in terms of industrial structure, there is heavy dependence on the secondary industry with lagging development of the tertiary industry; in terms of factor structure, there is long-term reliance on high consumption and high investment of material resources with insufficient independent innovation capabilities.
In recent times, the central government has put forward clear requirements for transforming the economic development mode and taken specific measures, emphasizing that the key is to make efforts and achieve tangible results in "accelerating". This year's Two Sessions coincide with a critical period for the stabilization and recovery of China's economy. It can be foreseen that "accelerating the transformation of the economic development mode" will become an important topic of the Two Sessions. People hope to see new breakthroughs in macroeconomic policies in key areas and links such as resource pricing mechanisms, medical care, pension, and educational system reforms, removing institutional obstacles to scientific development.
