Draining pond to get all fish is not the correct way for development

The Chinese government knows full well that the rule of law is the key to promoting good governance and the healthy functioning of the economy and society. That is why it has spared no effort to standardize administrative law enforcement across the board to create a better business environment.

In the latest example of this, Premier Li Qiang presided over a special study session of the State Council, China's Cabinet, on Monday, focused on how to further improve the standards and norms of administrative law enforcement, and tighten its procedures while optimizing methods.

While noting the abuse of discretionary powers and unjust law enforcement practices in some areas, Li called for an improved benchmark system for discretion in enforcement to regulate the exercise of power, and said a special initiative aimed at regulating business-related law enforcement will be launched next year to further optimize the business environment and stabilize expectations and boost confidence.
