The premier underscored efforts to empower traditional industries through advanced technologies such as digital and green ones to promote the smooth transition from traditional drivers to new ones.

Governments at all levels should continue to optimize the business environment, implement beneficial and supportive policies for enterprises, actively help address their demands, and support the better development of enterprises, said Li.
