Industry insiders offer guidance to government

Editor's note: The number of drivers on China's roads is constantly growing, posing new challenges. The following is a summary of statements made by delegates from the auto industry during the annual two sessions. Here they suggest ways for the government to strengthen the industry while building a better society.

Tang Yuxiang, president of Yutong, China's largest bus manufacturer, talked about the heavy air pollution in recent months. He noted vehicle emissions are a major source of pollution, especially buses and trucks that use low-grade diesel fuel.

He suggested that the government should promote gas-electric hybrid buses on a large scale in public transportation, which could be one of the most efficient ways to improve air quality and save energy in urban areas.
