Published: 04 Dec 2008 02:11:47 PSTDec. 4, 2008 (China Knowledge) - China plans to buy various kinds of base metals as reserves with a view to spur domestic demand, the South China Morning Post reported, citing Wen Xianjun, vice-chairman of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association (CNMIA). As a result of the global financial turmoil, the metal market of mainland has suffered a lot with shrinking demand which caused plunging prices.

Wen revealed earlier last week that CNMIA has already submitted proposals to the government for raising the aluminum reserve.
