The documents, published on Tuesday, stated that China had achieved its “strategic goal” of becoming the world’s fourth-most-advanced “manufacturing power” in 2024, adding that the sector would play a central role in “real” economic development over the coming decade.
The assessment was based on the manufacturing power index, developed by the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the China Academy of Machinery Science and Technology and the China Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team. The index has evaluated the country’s manufacturing performance since 2015.
“It is expected that by 2030, seven industries – information and communication equipment, advanced rail transport equipment, ship and marine engineering equipment, power equipment, new energy and intelligent connected vehicles, textiles and home appliances – will maintain their world-leading positions and achieve breakthroughs through original innovation.”
