China’s government is getting serious about stopping late payments. It has come up with rules to get government departments and large state-owned companies to pay their bills to smaller companies on time.
The companies that refuse to comply will be put on a court-administered blacklist and face fines of RMB 100,000 to RMB 500,000.
