This week on Weekly China Recap with Xing Zheming, we dive into one of the most important policy moves in China’s economic calendar — a sweeping 13-point action plan by the State Council aimed at reviving the vitality of the private sector.

At a time when China faces a complex mix of domestic restructuring and global geopolitical pressures, this new plan sends a powerful signal: private-sector vitality is not optional — it is essential.

In this episode, we break down:

• Why private enterprises matter more than ever
• The seven most consequential measures, from opening state-dominated sectors to enabling private REITs and green-channel IPOs
• How China plans to boost SME financing, digitalization, and procurement access
• Why this package is tied directly to China’s ambitious but pragmatic 15th Five-Year Plan
• And the real question: Can implementation on the ground match Beijing’s intentions?

This is a decisive moment for China’s long-term growth. Join us as we unpack what these changes mean for entrepreneurs, investors, and China watchers worldwide.
