 　　Yang addressed the question concerning the passenger transport services provided by private cars through online car-hailing apps.

　　"If private car owners want to provide profitable services to the public, matters concerning passenger transport safety and public service will be involved and that has to be regulated by certain laws and regulations. In such a situation, we have to have corresponding supervision¹. According to the current guideline that we've drafted, we provide some approaches for private cars to serve as online car-hailing business. After being approved as operating vehicles through certain procedures, private cars will be allowed to undertake operational transport services."Yang also notes that the subsidizing of fares and the supplementing of driver wages by ride-hailing companies such as Didi Kuaidi and U.S. firm Uber Technologies Inc. are competitively unfair and could not be sustained in the long-term.

　　Regulations governing the reform and development of the taxi market were also a hot topic at the press meeting.

　　Liu Xiaoming, head of Transport Service Department of the Ministry² of Transport, says megacities and large cities must give priority to the development of public transport because they have limited road resources.

　　He says there should be overall control over taxi-operating rights. The move is to limit the total number of taxicabs so that they will have a proper share in the structure of transportation, instead of pursuing unlimited³ development.

　　"We have a well-defined direction for this reform: the taxi-operating rights must be free of charge and have limited durations. The purpose is to ensure taxi services will run in a virtuous⁴ manner and taxi operators will have to acquire the rights by providing quality service. This is a very important aspect of the current reform. Whether the operating rights will be cancelled or whether the quantitative⁵ control will be lifted will depend on the specific conditions of individual cities."On another front, Guo Jifu, the director of Beijing Transportation Research Center, says taxi reform will focus on meeting the needs of those with physical disabilities.

　　"Taxis should not only meet the needs of local people in the cities, but also the outsiders including tourists and businessmen, especially senior citizens. We will pay closer attention to an important aspect of taxi reform - that is to let those who cannot move freely take barrier-free taxi services to realize their transport needs."The Ministry of Transport also reveals that China will endeavor to put 200,000 clean energy buses into use across the country by 2020.

　　After three years of development, there have been more than 50,000 clean energy buses in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Jinan, Zhengzhou and Shenzhen.
