China: Small and medium-sized firms face complex and severe situation

Business operations of mid-sized and small enterprises in China have shown positive marginal changes due to government support measures, the Chinese government said on Monday. However, the government acknowledged that small and mid-sized firms continue to face a complex and severe situation.
