Their commerciality is reflected in the pursuit of maintaining and increasing the value of state-owned assets, and public welfare is reflected in the fact that state-owned enterprises are usually set up to achieve the goal of national economic regulation and control and play a role in coordinating the development of all aspects of the national economy.
