On the basis of building a world-class metals and mining companies and our “three-step” timetable for further reform, we will put in place a leading, globalized operations and management system. This reform is going to be unprecedented in depth and breadth. We must see it through with unprecedented determination and courage, like a hero slashing his own wrist to rid himself of poison. We must break traditional “boundaries” to unleash the vitality of our organization, take the lead in carrying out the reform, and set a good example.
