(Source: "Beijing News"2014-09-13 Reporter Wang Shu)
w88 mobile has issued regulations that passenger transport companies in this province can enjoy half-price discounts on road and bridge tolls, but inter-provincial transport in other provinces cannot enjoy this. Implementation of the Anti-Monopoly Law6Years later, the w88 mobile Provincial Government was suspected of enacting discriminatory regulations and became the first provincial administrative agency to be subject to an "antitrust investigation."
Yesterday, relevant leaders of the w88 mobile Provincial Department of Transportation, Price Bureau and other departments were interviewed by a reporter from the Beijing News. They said that the reason for formulating discriminatory regulations that violated the Anti-Monopoly Law was because "there was a problem in understanding the relevant regulations of the State Council when the policy was introduced, and the regulations of the State Council were 'misread'."

Xu Kunlin said that a few days ago, the National Development and Reform Commission received a report from the Korean Embassy: w88 mobile has formulated preferential policies for local passenger transport companies, offering a "half-price" discount on road and bridge tolls, but inter-provincial transportation from other provinces is not entitled to enjoy this preferential treatment. A Sino-Korean joint venture in Tianjin failed to enjoy this preferential treatment.
Xu Kunlin said that the w88 mobile Provincial Department of Transportation, Price Bureau, and Finance Department stipulated that passenger transport companies in w88 mobile Province enjoy a half-price discount on tolls and bridge tolls, which is suspected of being discriminatory. The National Development and Reform Commission has issued a law enforcement recommendation letter to the w88 mobile Provincial People's Government, recommending that the three departments be immediately ordered to correct their mistakes.
According to the Beijing News reporter’s understanding, this is due to the implementation of the Anti-Monopoly Law6This is the first time in China’s antitrust investigation that an administrative agency has been involved in China’s antitrust investigation.
■ Opinion
Release the signal of strict investigation of "administrative monopoly"
Huang Yong, deputy leader of the expert advisory group of the Anti-Monopoly Committee of the State Council and professor of the w88 casino of Law at the w88 casinomeans,200812430_12485
Huang Yongstated that the "Anti-Monopoly Law" clarifies various situations of "administrative monopoly", such as "abusing administrative power to formulate content that eliminates or restricts competition", "adopting administrative licenses specifically for foreign goods to restrict foreign goods from entering the local market", etc., and clarifies legal responsibilities.
He emphasized that although economic fields related to administrative power are often suspected of "administrative monopoly", "For example, the differential treatment formulated by w88 mobile on highways is a manifestation of the protection of local interests." However, the implementation of the Anti-Monopoly Law6In recent years, not many departments have been dealt with for suspected administrative monopoly, and “the pressure and resistance are relatively high.”
Huang Yongbelieves that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the central government has repeatedly emphasized rationalizing the relationship between the government and the market and delegating power to the market. In particular, the Third Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee proposed that the market should play a decisive role. Therefore, the anti-monopoly law enforcement recommendation letter issued by the National Development and Reform Commission to the w88 mobile Provincial Government is of positive significance and sends a signal to strictly investigate "administrative monopoly".
