Pull out undesired hand

The top leadership has made striking progress in the past less than three years since taking office. Its effective anti-corruption campaign has greatly reduced malpractices and extravagance, and its reform has allowed the market to play a bigger role in the economy.

But administrative organs still play the dominant role in many economic and social fields, something that Premier Li Keqiang severely criticized recently.

"Manicurists still need to gain their qualification certification from the government and the profession is even divided by the government into five grades. Is there a need for such kind of certification to be left to the discretion of the government?" Li raised this question at a State Council meeting on Wednesday.
