On January 3, the National Development and Reform Commission
(NDRC) issued a regulation, stipulating that from January 1, 2008
any dealers who increase prices for foodstuffs and other daily
necessities by more than 5 percent over a very short time, should
report their price hikes to proper local government departments and
at the same time, explain why they have made these adjustments.
Those who violate the regulations will be ordered to lower the
prices of their commodities.???
