1) People’s Bank controls deposits and payments-integrated cash-office.


2) “Barter” control of produce shipped and delivered to consumer.


3) Personal responsibility of former capitalists or former owners of the enterprises in all boards and centres (under threat of imprisonment, execution of former capitalists, arrest of their families).[1]
