National Development and Reform Commission: Promoting consumption is not about "emptying the wallet" or "overdrawing demand" consumption | Policy | Demand
On July 31st, the State Council Information Office held a routine briefing on State Council policies, introducing relevant measures to restore and expand consumption.
Recently, with the approval of the State Council, the Measures for Restoring and Expanding Consumption have been forwarded by the General Office of the State Council to various localities and departments, and publicly released to the public. Li Chunlin, Deputy Director of the National Development and Reform Commission, stated that promoting consumption policies is not a so-called "emptying the wallet" or "overdraft demand". On the contrary, the starting point of promoting consumption policies is to help residents save expenses, buy high-quality and affordable goods, buy new products and services with more technological content and more in line with needs, and avoid illegal "tricks", counterfeit and inferior products. The government's policies are more effective and beneficial to the people, and the consumption and welfare of the people can be simultaneously improved.

Li Chunlin stated that the "Measures" focus on six aspects: stabilizing bulk consumption, expanding service consumption, promoting rural consumption, expanding new types of consumption, improving consumption facilities, and optimizing the consumption environment. They propose 20 specific policy measures, striving to balance the long and short, and be practical and effective. I hope to further meet the consumption needs of residents and unleash consumption potential by optimizing policy and institutional design.
