Administrative Reform to Strengthen Competitiveness: Minister

A senior Chinese official said Friday that China is speeding up the reform of public administration, hoping to establish a vigorous administration system suited to China's socialist market economy.

Song Defu, minister of personnel, made the remark at the two-day Seminar on Public Administration Reform in Asia, which opened in Beijing Friday morning.

The minister said the reform can improve the country's competitive edge internationally.

He said quickening public administration reform and establishing a highly efficient and streamlined government is of great importance to economic development and social progress.

Since China's opening-up in 1978, the Chinese government has witnessed four major organizational reforms. The fourth reform, of the State Council, which ended in 1998, resulted in a 50 percent reduction of staff.

The experiences over the past 20 years show that China's administrative reform not only promoted the country's political reform, liberated and developed social productivity, but also improved the efficiency of government organizations, according to a senior Chinese official attending the seminar.

Pichardo Pagaza, president of the International Institute of Administrative Sciences, said that in the current process of economic globalization, governments worldwide should exchange experiences more frequently and work harder to seek reform methods and measures that are most appropriate to their own realities.
