was necessary and important to cooperate with and learn from foreign giants like
GE, so as to reform the provincial state-owned enterprises.
"On one hand, we should carry out reform of state enterprises, bringing their
potentials into play through learning and introducing in advanced management
experience and modern technologies in order to revitalize this China's old
industrial base; on the other hand, we hope to cooperate with international
giants like GE to incorporate some high grade products into the world market."

development orientation of the corporation. He said that GE would be interested
in the cooperation with Heilongjiang- based enterprises in power system,
industrial system and so on.
