Increasing Consumer Satisfaction
Nanfang Daily March 16
As consumption has become a major driver of China’s economic growth， consumer demand for safe and high-quality products is keeping pace. However， unscrupulous producers and retailers remain prevalent.
During the China Central Television annual gala to mark Consumer Rights Day on March 15， a number of producers and retailers guilty of selling fake and substandard products were exposed. The show has played an important role in protecting consumer rights， but a lot more needs to be done to improve the general quality of commodities in China.
As China’s economy transitions from a phase of rapid growth to a stage of high-quality development， a higher standard must be upheld for consumer products. Products sold at home and abroad should be measured against the same set of standards in order to reach preeminent global levels. The market should be guided to increase the supply of high-quality products and services in order to create an environment conducive to satisfying people’s needs for a better life and increasing their sense of gain， happiness and safety.
Effective supervision is also indispensable for improving quality. An important cause of the prevalence of fake and substandard products is the low cost of transgressions， and so heftier fines should be imposed on offenders. In addition， supervision， management and law enforcement should all be strengthened. Issues should be discovered through spot checks， inspections， complaints fi led by consumers and media exposure. Cases involving the infringement of consumer rights should be cracked down on in accordance with the law. Improving the Quality of Growth
China Newsweek March 19
As China shifts from a phase of rapid economic growth to a stage of high-quality development， the quality of growth has been gaining widespread public attention. High-quality growth is a broad term including the quality of products， the environment and people’s lives.
China has become the second largest economy in the world， and economic strength is the foundation upon which China can construct high-quality growth.
Another reason for pursuing high-quality growth is the evolution of the principal contradiction facing Chinese society， which is now one between unbalanced and inadequate development and the people’s evergrowing needs for a better life.
Innovation is the key to realizing high-quality growth. For instance， the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries should be promoted by utilizing modern technologies. New technologies and new industries involving the Internet， the Internet of Things， big data and artifi cial intelligence should be nurtured， while advanced manufacturing industries involving new-energy vehicles， aerospace， aviation and the service， culture and tourism industries should also be advanced.
Property rights systems and mechanisms for the market-based allocation of production factors should be improved to enable a signifi cant increase in economic dynamism and public creativity. Principles of equal rights， equal opportunities and fair rules should be upheld to support the development of private enterprises.
Moreover， to realize high-quality growth， a modern economic system should be established with a focus on the real economy and improving the quality of the supply system. The government should also change its economic policies to promote healthy and stable growth and industrial optimization and upgrading.
Auditing’s Role In Anti-Corruption
Thepaper.cn March 19
According to Hu Zejun， Auditor-General of the National Audit Office， speaking on March 19， not only state but also Communist Party of China institutions should be involved in the auditing system in order to enable it to play a more effective role in anti-corruption.
A guideline on improving the auditing system issued in December 2015 stipulated that auditing should cover public funds， state assets， national resources and offi cials. Hu’s comment has further clarifi ed the responsibilities of audit departments.
After audit departments discover economic inconsistencies within state and Party departments， the disciplinary inspection and supervisory departments will be responsible for dealing with them. The cooperation of the aforementioned departments has increased the effectiveness of anti-corruption efforts. As part of the ongoing institutional reform of the State Council， the inspection of major projects by the National Reform and Development Commission， supervision of the central budget by the Ministry of Finance and the auditing of the leaders of state-owned enterprises by the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council have been merged into the National Audit Offi ce， making the system more comprehensive and effi cient while raising its credibility.
Use of the auditing system to bring money and power under control will improve the security of national governance. Auditing departments should have their ability to act independently guaranteed in accordance with the law without delay in order to build a comprehensive and effective auditing system.
A modern auditing system will help promote the modernization of state governance， its system and abilities. In the future， auditing departments should continue to restrict power and supervise the implementation of policies.
