Big bonanza for logistics, metal firms

The State Council, or the Cabinet, has approved fresh stimulus boosts to the country's non-ferrous metal and logistics industries as part of a larger effort to give a fillip to the domestic economy, which has been hit by the global financial crisis.

This was the last set of stimulus packages, after similar efforts were announced for the automobile, steel, shipbuilding, textile, manufacturing, electronics, light and petrochemical sectors earlier.
