Booming May Day economy example of efficient governance

Transport authorities say the number of passenger trips during the just concluded five-day May Day holiday could reach 265 million, or 53 million trips per day, almost the same as during the 2019 May Day holiday and about 120 percent more from the same period of last year.

The sale of air tickets, entry tickets to tourist sites, and hotel and other bookings significantly exceeded that during the same period in 2019.

While the number of takeouts ordered during the first three days of the holiday was the highest in the past five years, there was also a significant increase in shopping and people flows in key business areas of major cities on the first two days.
