Editor's note: The annual sessions of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, also known as the two sessions, are underway in Beijing. Legislators and political advisors have offered suggestions and brought forth several proposals for the high-quality development of China's economy. Let us take a look at what they have to say.

Gong Mingzhu, director of Inner Mongolia Development and Reform Commission and also an NPC deputy, said that high-quality development can further improve the scale of China's economic aggregate and the quality and efficiency of development. It will provide a more solid foundation for comprehensively building a modern socialist country, and is the fundamental support to ensure that the modernization drive can constantly meet the people's needs for a better life.

She suggested giving priority to ecological and green development, properly balance investment with the environment and resources, extend industrial chains to the middle and lower reaches and value chains to the middle and high levels, and continue to support high-quality economic and social development.
