Currently, there are 2-3 million entrepreneurs who are business leaders; and the figure can reach 10 million people if the number of household businesses are taken into account, Cong stated, adding that this is a special workforce playing an important role in implementing industrialisation and modernisation and building the country's independent, self-reliant and integrated economy in the new era.
