Eliminating state-owned enterprises excess capacity in low-carbon steel pipe industry

Governments are required to pay special attention to the supply-side structural reform in the low-carbon steel pipe industry such as the production balance of cold rolled steel pipe. State-owned enterprises should continue to eliminate excess production capacity in steel, coal and coal power industries and speed up the digestion of all kinds of historical arrears and remaining problems. We will accelerate structural adjustment and accelerate high-quality development. We need to take multiple measures to reduce leverage and liabilities, and resolve all kinds of financial risks.
