The draft submitted by the ministry represents opinions from associations, experts, etc. It does not represent the unilateral will of the company.” Yili also believes that in the process of standard setting, enterprises should fulfill their obligations by performing some basic technical work in coordination with the state. “We understand and adhere to the formulation of national standards, but at the same time we will also formulate higher corporate standards to regulate and lead the healthy development of the industry.”
