The official highlighted strong expansion in high-end manufacturing, the digital economy, and the new energy sector. Specifically, last month saw an increase in production of 3D printing equipment. as well as industrial robots and new energy vehicles, by 40, 35.5, and 31.7 percent year-on-year, respectively.
