SEVERAL OPINIONS OF THE STATE COUNCIL ON ACCELERATING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SERVICE INDUSTRY

Several Opinions of the State Council on Accelerating the Development of the Service Industry

Guo Fa [2007] No.7

The People’s Governments of all provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the State Council, and all ministries,
commissions and directly subordinate organs under the State Council,

In accordance with the general direction and guidelines for the development of the service industry as determined in the design of
the Eleventh Five-Year Plan, several opinions on accelerating the development of the service industry are set forth as follows:

Fully realizing the major significance of accelerating the development of the service industry

The service industry is an important part of the national economy, and an important indicator for measuring the economic development
level of a modern society. China is now in the stage of building a well-off society in an all-round way and in the progress accelerated
industrialization, urbanization, market mechanisms and internationalization, and many conditions supporting the sound and rapid economic
development have been preliminarily in place. Accelerating the development of the service industry, enhancing the proportion of the
service industry in the structure of primary, secondary and tertiary industries, as well as making the service industry a leading
industry in the national economy are the only way to pushing the adjustment of economic structure and speeding up the transition
of the economic growth mode, are the imperative needs for effectively easing the bottleneck restrictions as a result of shortage
of resources and advancing the use efficiency of resources, and are the effective ways for and realization of upswing in the overall
national strength as a whole in the new situations of opening up to the outside world. Accelerating the development of the service
industry, forming a relatively complete system of the service industry, offering profuse products satisfying the needs of people
in materials, culture and living, and making it a major industry that absorbs both urban and rural new workers are the intrinsic
requirements for the settlement of the livelihood of the people, promotion of the social harmony and building a well-off society
in an all-round way. Therefore, we must attach great importance to the major long-term strategic task of accelerating the development
of the service industry at the height of implementing the scientific development view and strategic ideology of building a harmonious
socialist society into real effect.

Both the Central Party and the State Council have always attached importance to the development of the service industry, formulated
a series of policy measures for encouraging and supporting it, and the development of the service industry have been advanced obviously.
Especially since the 16th Conference of the Chinese Communist Party, we have continued to expand the scale of service industry, improved
in both structure and quality, and deepen the reform and opening to the outside world in service fields, which has played a significant
role in promoting the steady and rapid economic development, increasing work opportunities, etc. However, there are still some problems
which cannot be neglected in the development of the service industry, such as the overemphasis on the development of industry, especially
on heavy industry, and pay insufficient attention to the development of the service industry. In general, China’s service industry
is short in supply, unreasonable in structure, low in service level, weak in competitiveness, low in the proportion of contribution
to the national economic development, not in match with the accelerated economic and social development as well as the adjustment
and upgrade of the industrial structure, it does not meet the requirements for building a well-off society in an all-round way and
building a harmonious socialist society, and does not conform to the new situations of economic globalization and opening further
to the outside world. All localities and all departments shall further improve their awareness, make their minds consistent with
central decision making and deployment, alter their development concepts, broaden their vision about development, and endeavor to
solve the existing problems, in order to speed up the escalation of the service industry to a new level, to boost the economy and
society to run on the tracks of scientific development, and promote the sound and rapid development of the national economy.

General requirements and major targets for accelerating the development of the service industry

During the present and next few years, the requirements for the development of the service industry are to: take Deng Xiaoping Theory
and the important thought of Three Represents as our guide, fully implement the scientific outlook on development and the important
strategic ideology of building a harmonious socialist society, regard the development of the service industry as a major way for
accelerating the adjustment of industrial structure, transiting the mode of economic growth, enhancing the overall strength of the
national economy and realizing the full, consistent and sustainable development of the national economy, insist on the ideas of people

with reasonable function, and continuously enhance the supply ability and level of public services; stick to the direction of market

its structure; keep to the overall allocation and coordination as well as categorized guidance, bring relative advantages into play,

and mutually supplemental in advantages; adhere to the innovative development, enlarge the opening wider the outside world, absorb
the advanced experiences, technologies and modes of management of the developed countries, intensify the international competitiveness
of the service industry, and realize the sound and rapid development of the service industry.

According to the design of the Eleventh Five-Year Plan, the major targets in developing the service industry during the period of
the Eleventh Five-Year Plan are: by the year of 2010, the ratio of the added value of the service industry to the GDP shall have
grown by 3 per cent as opposed to that of 2005, the ratio of workers engaging in the service industry to those in the whole society
shall have grown by 4 per cent, and the total amount of trade in services shall have reached 400 billion U.S. dollars; an industrial
structure giving priority to the service economy shall have been formed in qualified large or medium-sized cities, and their growth
rates of added value of the service industry shall have exceeded the growth rates of the GDP and the secondary industry. By the year

with the ratio of the added value of the service industry to the GDP over 50%, the structure of the service industry notably optimized,
the employment capacity obviously augmented, the degree of equalization in the public services notably advanced and the market competitiveness

The service fields facing production shall be strongly developed to facilitate the organic integration and interactive development
of the modern manufacturing industry and the service industry. The work division by specialty shall be detailed and deepened, the
productive and manufacturing enterprises shall be encouraged to reform their present business flow, outsourcing shall be boosted,
core competitiveness shall be fortified, and the extension from the production and processing lines to self-development, brand name

way, the financial market system shall be improved, and the innovation of products, services and management shall be accelerated;
the science and technology service field shall be strongly developed, the role of science and technology in underpinning and leading

research and development in science and technology, technology generalization, industrial designing and energy saving shall be encouraged;
commercial services such as legal consultation, accounting and auditing, engineering consultation, certification and accreditation,
credit assessment, advertising and convention & exhibition shall be regulated for development; the trade and circulation industry
shall be boosted and reformed, and modern business forms and new types of trade such as chain and franchised operations shall be
popularized. By the development of the service industry, the best use of both materials and human resources is made, with goods circulated
smoothly, cost for social transaction reduced, the resource allocating efficiency raised and the development towards a new-type industrialization
accelerated.

The service fields facing the livelihood of the people shall be strongly developed, and new-type service fields shall be actively
expanded and constantly fostered to produce new growth points in the service industry. Based on the requirements of urbanization
and aging population, such service fields as municipal public utility, real estate and property services, community services, household
services and socialized retirement services shall be strongly developed. Based on the requirements of building a harmonious society,
such service fields as educational, medical and health, press, postal, telecommunication, radio, film and television services and
causes shall be strongly developed. Importance shall be attached to the rural and underdeveloped regions, with the building of public
service systems intensified, the structure of urban and rural regional service industries optimized and the equalization of public
services realized gradually. Based on the targets for construction of a well-off society and the requirements for transiting and
upgrading the consumption structure, such service fields as tourist, cultural, sports, recreational and entertainment services shall
be strongly developed, and the consumption structure of services shall be optimized, in order to enrich the spiritual and cultural
life of the people. The service industry shall be the major channel for increasing employment in China, the service fields with large
employment capacity shall be especially developed, other service fields shall be encouraged to contain more employment, and the huge
potential of the service industry in creating employment opportunities shall be fully dug up.

Participants in the service market shall be strongly fostered, and the organizational structure of the service industry shall be optimized.
The enterprises in service business shall be encouraged to intensify their own creativity, improve their general quality and competitiveness
through technological progress, and continue carrying out managerial, service and product creation and innovation. We shall, based
on enterprises with great competitiveness, promote large-scale networked operations with well-known brands by means of acquisition
and merger, consortium, restructuring and IPO, etc., in order to form a batch of large-scale service enterprises or enterprise groups
that hold their own intellectual properties and well-known brand and have great competitiveness. The non-public economy shall be
encouraged and guided to develop the service industry, and active support shall be given to the development of medium- and small-sized
service enterprises to fully take the advantage of their advantages in helping people start their own businesses and in the creation
of employment opportunities.

Scientifically adjusting the development pattern of the service industry

We shall, under the precondition of realizing the provision of universal services and meeting the basic needs, and in light of the
comparative advantages and reality of regional economic development, make scientific and reasonable planning in order to form a development
pattern of the service industry that is full of strength, adapted to the market with distinctive features and is mutually supplemental
in advantages.

Cities shall make full use of their advantages in the relatively centralized talents, logistics, information and capital, advance
the structure adjustment, and improve the quality and level of the service industry. Municipalities directly under the Central Government,
cities specifically designated in the state plan, capital cities and other qualified large- and medium-sized cities need to advance
the formation of an industrial structure giving priority to the service economy. Within the developed regions, especially the Pearl
River delta, Yangtze River delta and Bohai Sea ring, upon their advantages of faster progression of industrialization and higher
resident’s incomes and consumption levels, the modern service industry shall be strongly developed with the upgrade of the service
industry promoted, quality of the service industry improved and the economic growth boosted mainly by the growth of the service industry.
Within the middle and western China, the notion that the service industry can be developed only after the industrial development
is changed, the service fields with comparative advantages and traditional service fields shall be actively developed, and the service
fields diverted from the eastern China may be picked up, in order to escalate the development of the service industry to a new level
as soon as possible and continue raising the rate of contribution of the service industry to the economy growth.

All localities shall, in light of the state planning, development trend of urbanization and the industrial distribution, provide guidance
to such service fields as traffic, information, research and development, design and commercial services, etc. that have a stronger
radiating or aggregative effect, and foster and form state or regional service centers that are prominent in the principal functions
relying on a cluster of cities or the central city. The traffic infrastructures such as railways, highways, civil aviation and water
carriage shall be further improved with the priority given to the development of city public transportation, in order to form a fast,
convenient, smooth, highly efficient and safe integrated transportation system. And no time shall be wasted in building international
shipping centers and major ports in Shanghai, Tianjin and Dalian. The construction of transportation pivots and connecting transportation
facilities shall be advanced, and regional logistical centers shall be formed by intensifying the allocation and integration of logistical
infrastructures in the economically developed regions and transportation pivot cities. State or regional financial centers shall
be set up by selecting the extra-large cities and large cities that have stronger radiating functions and extensive service spectrums.
Relying on the regions that have large-scale industrial convergence, high-level equipments and strong ability in scientific research,
the fostering and completion of public service platforms shall be accelerated, which are mutually supplemental in functions and have
a strong sustainability in such fields as research and development, design, financial management and information inquiry. And a batch
of industrial design and research and development service centers shall be built by making full use of the functions of the state
software industry bases, in order to form ever new growth poles with strong driving powers and extensive radiating spectrums.

We shall, by adhering to making good use of existing service resources, break up the administrative separation and regional blockage,
bring into full play the functions of the market mechanisms, encourage the cooperation in various manners between sections, fields
and regions, promote the restructuring of resources in the service industry, make full use of the combination advantages and deepen
work division and cooperation, in order to realize the optimal allocation of resources in a greater extent, in a broader field and
at a higher level. And we shall avoid impractical comparison, blind investment and repetitive construction.

Actively developing the service industry in rural areas

By carrying out the basic strategy of coordinating the development of urban and rural areas, the service industry for the needs of
rural areas shall be strongly developed to continuously prosper the rural economy, increase the income of farmers, improve the living
standard of farmers, and tangibly serve the aims of developing modern agriculture and boosting the construction of new socialist
countryside.

Centering on the services rendered before, during and after the agricultural production, the structuring and improvement shall be

use of foreign capital. Pursuant to various commitments on the liberalization of trade in services made by China upon its accession

the service industry. All service fields to which the access is not prohibited expressly by laws or regulations shall be opened up
to the private capital; all fields opened up to foreign capital shall be opened up to domestic capital as well. The market separation
and regional blockage shall be broken, and the construction of a market system featuring nationally uniform opening up and orderly

and basically the same prices of power, water, gas and heat supply shall be realized for both the industry and the service fields
falling within the categories of fields encouraged by the state. The urban land use structure shall be adjusted, the proportion of
land used for the service industry shall be determined reasonably, and as for the land supply, the service fields falling within
the categories of fields encouraged by the state shall be considered favorably. Upon the actual conditions, the threshold for the
ordinary service fields in such aspects as the registered capital and registration with the industrial and commercial administration

arrangement of funds under the state fiscal budget, great importance shall be attached to the support for the development of major
and weak fields of the service industry and the improvement of creation and innovation capabilities. The government investment structure
shall be actively regulated, and the state will continue to arrange for the funds for the development and guidance of the service
industry with an increasing scale, and the social capital shall be guided to increase the input in the service industry. The local
governments shall also arrange for funds to support the development of the service industry. The financial institutions shall be
guided and encouraged to offer credit support to the service enterprises that meet the requirements of the state industrial policies,
and accelerate the development of financial products meeting the needs of service enterprises conditioned upon risk control. Qualified
service enterprises shall be actively encouraged to enter the capital market at home and abroad for funding, and funds may be raised
in a variety of ways such as the public offering of shares and issuance of enterprise bonds. The various business start-up venture
capital institutions and credit guarantee institutions shall be encouraged to develop businesses with medium- and small-sized service
