More measures to support a steady growth in consumption are in pipeline this year, with a focus on key sectors including used cars, new energy cars, 5G, energy-efficient electric home appliances, senior and baby care, and consumption in rural areas, said Ning Jizhe, deputy head of National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).
Ning was speaking at a press conference at the second session of the 13th National People's Congress.
The statement followed policies released this January that promoted the consumption in sectors including cars, electric home appliances, sustainable industries, information and technology, senior care and sports.
