industrialization and urbanization. In this process, the economic contradictions and social contradictions are complicated, so it is necessary to foster market players, change the behavior and concept of the people, and establish and complete market order, and for all this, the government is required to play a certain leading and dominating role. Next, China is not only a country with a vast territory and great difference in geographic conditions, for thousands of years, many differences have developed in nationalities, culture, ways of life and development stages in different areas. In such a big country, a unified and powerful government must be in place to steer the ship of economy. The smooth return of Hong Kong and Macau for one country, two systems"could not be realized without a powerful central government; similarly, the regional economic development strategies such as "development of the west","rejuvenation of the northeast" and "rise of central China" could not be implemented without the cooperation between the central government and local governments.
The reform in China is not only reform of economic system, and it also include the reform of political system. Just as Deng Xiaoping said, the reform of economic system cannot succeed without the guarantee of reform of political system. China is a big country with a population of 1.3 billion, so the reform of political system must be implemented under proper leadership step by step. Without a firm and steady leader and set steps, it would certainly lead to a chaotic "pseudo-democracy". This kind of "democracy" cannot guarantee the true rights and interests of the Chinese people, nor help the sustainable development of the Chinese economy.
Emphasizing the role of the government does not mean negating or underestimating the market. On contrary, the basic role of the market is getting strengthened with the continual progress of the market-oriented reform.
