KUNMING — Premier Li Keqiang has urged more efforts to coordinate COVID-19 control with economic and social development in an efficient way and strengthen support for market entities in difficulty.

Premier Li, also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks during an inspection tour in Qujing and Kunming of Southwest China's Yunnan province from May 17 to May 19.

While inspecting the growth of seedlings in a corn field, Premier Li learned about the costs and earnings of grain production. After hearing from the farmers that the national subsidies for farming supplies have alleviated the pressure of costs, Premier Li said another batch of subsidies will be issued soon to prop up farmers.

Noting that micro and small businesses and self-employed households are having difficulties in repaying their loans, Premier Li called for efforts to thoroughly implement loan-extension policies and roll out the policy of phased deferment of loan-interest repayments as soon as possible.
