The NDRC will continue to change the country's pattern of growth from pursuing scale and output to stressing quality and efficiency next year, by further reducing energy consumption and pollution, said Ma.

China has planned to cut its energy consumption for unit GDP from 1.22 tons of coal last year to 0.98 by 2010.

Meanwhile, Ma said the government will go on reining in fixed-asset investment and boosting consumption, which was also pledged at the 2006 Central Economic Work Conference.

The conference delegates proposed to boost the income levels and consumption of rural people and the urban poor, calling for greater attention to creating employment opportunities.

The allocation of public resources must bring people more direct benefits, and problems involving people's immediate interests must be carefully solved, said Ma.

"We should promote social justice and stability by letting the people share the achievements of reforms," said Ma.
