KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 24 -- As China continues to tackle the novel coronavirus outbreak, its industries have started to return to work in an orderly manner, according to Xi’an Bureau of Industry and Information Technology.
Xi’an has recently introduced a number of measures to help enterprises pull through the difficult times and speed up their resumption of production including optimising government services, delaying social security payments and stabilising employment with subsidies. Xi’an Bureau of Industry and Information Technology recently released statistics revealing over 400 enterprises in Xi'an have resumed production as of Feb 19. A total of 34 large industrial enterprises have resumed work and production, accounting for 75.6 per cent of all the 45 large industrial enterprises. Production capacity has also been gradually restored, as nine large enterprises with production and sales of over RMB10 billion have fully or partially resumed production, such as Shaanxi Automobile Holdings Limited and Samsung (China) Semiconductor Co Ltd. As enterprises resume production, personnel mobility is increasing. In order to stop the virus from spreading, the Xi'an government provides ‘one-on-one’ services for enterprises returning to work, helping them implement prevention and control measures. In addition, the government introduces a number of measures to help small and medium-sized enterprises resume work by reducing or exempting rents, providing interest subsidies and helping enterprises develop markets. Xi’an will centrally arrange a special fund of 200 million yuan to support the employment of local enterprises and a special fund of one billion yuan to support local enterprises in vocational training for employees. (100 yuan = RM59.98) It will offer a full subsidy for the expenses of the enterprises incurred in transporting employees with booked vehicles and train compartments; partial subsidy for the transportation costs of personnel returning to work on their own; and, full subsidy for the costs of nucleic acid testing. -- BERNAMA
