Twenty-eight years ago, the Chinese people embarked upon the historic
drive of reform, opening-up and modernisation and have made
phenomenal progress through unremitting efforts.

There are many favourable conditions for China to maintain
sustained and fast growth. China is in the stage of rapid
industrialisation and urbanisation and has huge potential for
economic growth. The important period of strategic opportunities
for China's development will last quite a long time.

 Sustainability opportunities
 Chinese fiscal support for fuel efficient cars: The Chinese government
announced in November 2009 that it will extend the 2009 sales tax cuts on

to extend auto sales tax cuts deeper for cars with fuel efficient engines
or engines less than 1.6 litres
 Research and Development: Lighter, aerodynamic component design will be
important to meet increasingly stringent environmental standards for
passenger vehicles. Minth continues to put great efforts in enhancing its
Research & Development capabilities. Research expenditures increased
by approximately 45.1% in 2008 compared to 2007
