英语文摘:Chinese leaders on transformation of economic growth pattern

BEIJING, March 6 (Xinhua) -- "Transformation of the economic growth pattern" has become a key word on the agenda of the annual sessions of China's parliament and top advisory body as the country aims at complete recovery from the global financial crisis and seeks sustained growth.

Following are quotes from some Chinese leaders that underscore the transformation. The leaders joined deputies to the National People's Congress (NPC) Saturday to deliberate Premier Wen Jiabao's government work report.

-- The bottleneck that stagnates the transformation of the economic growth pattern lies in an imperfect institutional mechanism. Reforms in key areas and sectors should be quickened to strengthen the impetus for economic growth and provide institutional guarantee for the transformation, said Vice Premier Li Keqiang in his discussion with NPC deputies from Liaoning Province.

-- Deepening reform and expanding opening-up offer fundamental impetus for shaping a competitive modern industry system, said He Guoqiang, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, in his discussion with NPC deputies from central Hunan Province.

-- The transformation means a profound change in the economic sector, and it is currently, and will be in a long run, a major economic task of the nation, said Zhou Yongkang, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, in his discussion with NPC deputies from Heilongjiang Province.

-- Cultural programs and cultural industry play an important role in enlightening the nation, and their development should be taken as an important approach to the transformation, said Li Changchun, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, in his discussion with NPC deputies from northwestern Shaanxi Province.
