Voices of tech entrepreneurs from the two sessions
4. Liu Qiangdong, chairman of e-commerce retailer JD and a member of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
Key words: e-commerce, poverty reduction
In his proposal, Liu called for building a new e-commerce road to help rural people out of poverty and get rich. However, he also expressed concern that some agricultural products cannot meet the national standard and have a lack of brand development, as well as a less developed rural logistics infrastructure.
Liu said the country should promote the mass production of agricultural products, actively implement the "poverty reduction brands" cultivation action, unveil incentive policies to speed up the construction of logistics infrastructure, and promote the "consumption poverty reduction".
