This year, Ma brings several suggestions to the top legislature, covering rural revitalization, new employment, carbon neutrality, digital governance, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and ecological environmental protection.

In his suggestions, Ma said the government should promote integrated development of internet technology and smart agriculture. People are always the core factor for achieving rural revitalization, Ma said, adding the country should put more efforts to attract and cultivate "new farmers" in the information age, stimulate internal driving force for rural revitalization.

Ma said new flexible employment form based on internet platform is an important carrier for achieving stable employment. New employment structures such as flexible employment and sharing employees are different from traditional ones, and need related policy support and improved service systems to better guarantee and serve these people.

In January, Tencent officially launched its carbon neutrality plan, becoming one of the first batch internet companies to unveil such plans. Ma said promoting carbon neutrality is an evidence that tech enterprises are actively fulfilling their social responsibility. It will promote these companies in energy saving and emission reduction, more important, the country encouraged tech companies in R&D and innovation and eventually to realize low carbon technology transformation.
