Experts say the crisis in the coal market is an opportunity for transformation

In the first half of 2012, the economic growth rate of some major energy provinces has witnessed a significant decline. In the face of such a situation, not only the coal bosses and coal companies need to transform themselves, Shanxi, a major coal producing province, also faces the pressure of restructuring and restructuring. Experts said that the current crisis in the coal market is a good opportunity for the transformation of energy provinces.

Zhang Liqun, a researcher at the Development Research Center of the State Council, said that now is a good opportunity for the big energy provinces, because the rapid expansion of market demand is now over, and the pressure to expand the energy scale is obviously reduced. At the same time, difficulties in many aspects due to slowing economic growth are also increasing. "In the face of these difficulties, only through the adjustment of development ideas can we fundamentally solve this problem by exploring a higher level and more sustainable development path."

Zhang Liqun emphasized that China’s economy is undergoing an important transition period, and this kind of transformation is particularly stressful for major energy provinces. Faced with this situation, we must seek a new path of development through active transformation, but we must not seek quick success. "Especially, some companies originally sought short-term profits, transferred funds to, say, real estate or other things, and his transition is very difficult. I think this is the main aspect of risk. Faced with such a task of transformation. The enterprise must have a long-term perspective. Do not pursue such a goal of short-term and short-term interests. This is a fundamental change in the development thinking.
