Vice minister of finance Wang Jun said local governments have enough financial capacity to inject more than 510 billion yuan (about 75 billion U.S. dollars) in the next three years to support the reform.

"The investment will be made in full amount and in time because we have made measurement and consideration of the government's financial capacity when drafting the reform plan," he told a press conference.
