According to the Prime Minister, in the first half of the year, the authorities had held a strategic session identifying the "perspective image" of the electronics industry, but it was reported that the Government had set "perfectly specific" goals and targets and that the industry as a whole would receive unprecedented funding, not short-term tactical plans, but an eight-year development strategy.
As the Prime Minister said, "there is a great deal to be done together by the State, by business, by the scientific community, especially in the creation of knowledge-intensive products, services and the competitiveness of our country in the field of high technology".
