Can The Financial Crisis Open The Door To Antitrust?

In the government work report, we pointed out that we should promote fair competition, eliminate regional blockades, break industrial monopolies, mobilize various social resources and promote economic growth. This sentence once again touched the chord of Chi Fulin. At the CPPCC conference, he once again called for "accelerating the reform of monopoly industries and establishing an anti monopoly body independent of the market and administrative organs as soon as possible". During the deliberations and discussions, many representatives thought that the "hammer" of the international financial crisis could further "knock" the door of monopoly industries, which has become a "must answer" of the government. Speeding up the reform of monopoly industries, enhancing economic vitality and increasing the employment space is a pressing matter of the moment. To speed up the reform of monopoly industries, in 2008, a reform was widely watched - the restructuring of the 6 basic telecom operators was adjusted to 3. The new round of telecom reform has made the telecom enterprises and network resources reshuffle, but monopoly is still, even worse. After 30 years of reform and opening up, China's reform has entered the "deep water area". However, the reform of some monopoly industries has always been difficult and hard to break. In 2008, the central enterprises realized a profit of 700 billion yuan. "Most of these profits are monopolistic enterprises' contribution to excess monopoly profits. They squeeze the development space of other forms of economy, so that private and foreign-funded economic forms can not be expanded or even atrophied, and directly distort the initial distribution of national income, resulting in loss of income and social welfare." He Xiaoping, member of the National Committee of the Chinese people's Political Consultative Conference and chief executive of the Heilongjiang Provincial Committee of the Kuomintang, said after enumerating the relevant data. In the face of the "hundred year old" financial disaster, we must make substantive breakthroughs in some key areas and important links of reform. - in the face of the grim situation of the economic downturn, the Central Committee of the 93 society also proposed to draw lessons from the universal experience of the world's monopolistic industry reform, and separate the sectors or projects with different monopoly degrees in the monopoly industries, such as the power generation in the power industry. Separation of power transmission and distribution; railway and aviation separation. "We should speed up breaking the monopoly pattern of industries and allow more private capital to enter the fields of communication, petroleum energy, finance, transportation, 3G and so on. After the entry of private capital, it can save more small and medium-sized enterprises, reduce the risk of financial crisis, and is also of great benefit to the steady employment at present. Ma Yuhua, member of the CPPCC National Committee and President of China Merchants Bank, appealed. "Some reforms are in itself a short-term and long-term consideration. Long-term problems are not solved and short-term problems are hard to break through. The same is true of monopoly industry reform. The anti-monopoly law has been promulgated. Under the present circumstances, if we do not break the monopoly, social investment is hard to come in, so we must open this door that has not been opened for many years. Chi Fulin said. He suggested that the normalization of state-owned monopoly industries and state-owned enterprises' rentals and dividends mechanism should be established. The 4 anti counterfeiting enterprises such as Beijing Zhao Xin Information Technology Co., Ltd. are suing the AQSIQ to push the administrative monopoly of the "electronic supervision network". Yuyao Yuyao tax office has sued the municipal government for restricting its fair competition. Last August 1st, when the anti-monopoly law was formally implemented, at least 3 antitrust lawsuits filed for filing. "The curtain of antitrust has been opened up. In the monopolistic behavior, administrative monopoly is the first to bear the brunt." He Xiaoping said that in the process of moving towards a rule of law society and building a harmonious society, administrative monopoly has become an institutional bottleneck for rapid economic growth. "Against the background of the outbreak of the world financial crisis and slowing down of China's economic growth, anti administrative monopoly is more important." He Xiaoping said that without eliminating administrative monopoly, it is impossible to establish a perfect socialist market economic system and China's economy can not develop rapidly and continuously. He suggested that: - accelerate the transformation of government functions, reduce administrative examination and approval, withdraw from the control of micro economy, and let the market play a fundamental role in the allocation of resources more widely. It will reduce market access threshold, support private enterprises to enter monopoly industries, and break the pattern of state-owned enterprises dominating the whole world. Through the competition of private enterprises, the state-owned monopoly enterprises should be forced to accelerate the restructuring, reduce costs and improve the quality of products and services. In recent years, the entry of foreign banks has activated the "pool of water" in the domestic banking industry, and domestic banks are full of vitality. "Banking industry is the same as other industries." He Xiaoping suggested that we should further introduce foreign capital into competition and break the domestic monopoly system with advanced concepts and new mechanisms. Members believe that the global financial crisis will lead to major changes in the global economic structure and the inevitable adjustment of the world economic structure. We should take this opportunity to improve the legal system and standardize management so as to minimize the impact of administrative monopoly on China's economy. Anti monopoly Law: to be refined and matched, there was a time when a difficult anti monopoly law was born. However, this law has been implemented for more than half a year, but the effect is not satisfactory. "There are more detailed regulations in the foreign anti-monopoly law, but our current anti-monopoly law has only 8 chapters and 57 articles. Such a rough legal framework makes it difficult to carry out its own complicated anti-monopoly enforcement, which has brought great challenges to the trial of the court." He Xiaoping suggested that we should further improve the antimonopoly law, introduce relevant rules of anti monopoly, especially anti administrative monopoly, strengthen the restrictions and restrictions on administrative monopoly, weaken the administrative power by law, and improve the regulatory system. Anti monopoly has also become the voice of democratic parties. At the CPPCC conference, the Central Committee of the Democratic League of China (CPPCC) submitted the proposal on the formulation of the supporting rules and regulations for the anti-monopoly law as soon as possible. It is suggested that in order to enhance the operability of the anti-monopoly law and to establish a unified national law enforcement standard, it is necessary to formulate a set of supporting rules and regulations, and make detailed explanations for some principles with strong provisions. We should clearly define the horizontal and vertical enforcement powers of the anti-monopoly law enforcement agencies, make a more detailed definition of the "relevant market", and make a concrete explanation of abusive behavior. After careful investigation and study, the Central Committee of the League of China (NLD) put forward a constructive proposal in this proposal. At the CPPCC conference, discussions on monopoly and antitrust are continuing. People are looking forward to monopolize the ice and gradually become stronger. A kind of
