China revealed its tentative principal tasks and measures for economic and social development in 2005 in a report submitted to the National People's Congress (NPC), the country's top legislature, yesterday for examination and possible approval by NPC deputies.

The report on the implementation of the 2004 plan for national economic and social development, and on the 2005 draft plan for national economic and social development, drawn up by the National Development and Reform Commission, calls for particular emphasis to be placed on work in the following fields.

Continuing to strengthen and improve macro-regulation to maintain steady and rapid economic growth.

"We must ensure the proper focus and intensity of regulation, give full play to the role of market forces and pay more attention to economic and legal means in consolidating and building on our achievements in macro-regulation," says the report.

Boosting agriculture, especially grain production, and raising farmers' incomes.

"We will continue to co-ordinate development of urban and rural areas, promote agriculture through industry, develop rural areas through urban development, and follow a principle of giving more, taking less and loosening control. We will adopt comprehensive measures to steadily increase grain output, agricultural efficiency and rural incomes," says the report.

Working hard to adjust the industrial structure and accelerating industrial upgrading.

The report says China will accelerate the rejuvenation of the equipment manufacturing industry, energetically develop new and high-tech industries, promote optimization and upgrading of traditional industries and accelerate development of service industries.
