ABSTRACT
The Preliminary Opinions on Economic Restructuring, drafted by the Economic Restructuring Offi ce of the State Council, is rather immature. The reason we submit
it to the meeting is that it deals with so important an issue that it will require repeated
discussions to be fully practicable. It contains our preliminary proposals, and only
after in-depth discussions and a general consensus on clearly defi ned and widely
accepted reform guidelines can we possibly come out with a concrete plan.
