Recently, Yin Li, Deputy Secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and Governor, chaired the 142nd executive meeting of the provincial government to study and deploy work on provincial key project management, general aviation airport planning and construction, and state-owned asset management system reform.

The meeting approved in principle the "Sichuan Province Key Project Management Measures," which refined the scope and standards for declaring provincial key projects. It emphasized that projects involving new technologies, new products, new business forms, and new business models are in principle not subject to investment scale restrictions, while projects that do not comply with relevant policies on industry, environmental protection, land use, and other aspects shall not be listed as provincial key projects. The Measures specify that supervision, inspection, and assessment incentive mechanisms for provincial key projects will be established to further implement responsibilities, transmit pressure, integrate resources, and pool strength, so as to ensure that all decisions and arrangements on provincial key project work are implemented and effective.

The meeting approved in principle the "Sichuan Province General Aviation Airport Layout Plan (2016-2030)," which specifies that, based on the development positioning, resource endowments, and industrial foundations of the province's five major economic zones, five general aviation airport clusters will be built respectively in the Chengdu Plain, southern Sichuan, northeastern Sichuan, Panxi, and northwestern Sichuan. The meeting required all localities and relevant departments to adhere to the principles of unified planning, phased implementation, government guidance, and market leadership, coordinate the requirements of economic and social development and ecological environmental protection, scientifically and orderly advance the construction of the general aviation airport network, and accelerate the building of a modern comprehensive transportation system.

The meeting approved in principle the "Implementation Opinions on Reforming and Improving the State-Owned Asset Management System," emphasizing that state-owned asset regulatory bodies should focus mainly on capital management, with the key tasks being to manage the layout of state-owned capital well, standardize capital operations, improve capital returns, and safeguard capital security, so as to better serve national and provincial strategic goals and realize the preservation and appreciation of state-owned capital. The Opinions propose that a number of provincial-level state-owned capital investment and operating companies will be reorganized and established to promote the rational flow and structural optimization of state-owned capital.
