In 2011, China will focus on reforming the fiscal system to improve the payment transfer system and build more elaborate fiscal systems at the provincial level, Xie said.
Plans for budget management will be more comprehensive and detailed, and all the government revenues will be included in the budget, according to Xie. He also said the budget will be more transparent to the public.
