Discussion on the Reform at the Institute of Military Industry

摘要

The Institute of Military Industry of China is an important forced in the military industry. In the economic structure reform, it is more significant to accelerate the reform of the institute since it will also accelerate the development of weapons to reinforce the Chinese national defense and the transfer of military technology to civilian applications to serve the national economy. For years, the Institute employed a supply system. Regardless of the technical accomplishments and economic benefits, the research funds and administrative expenses (including wages) were totally paid for by the Government. The institute relied on the government budget and the employees depended on the institution budget as if everything came out of a common pot. The institute lacks pressure, dynamic force and vitality which hinders progress. It also slows down the growth of personnel and prevents any improvement of economic benefits. An effective way to overcome this problem is to implement the paid contract system.
