The China Business News mines Premier Li Keqiang's records of 100 or so State Council meetings that Li has chaired to paint a picture of the central government's key policy directions.

The word "finance" gained the most mentions, in those gatherings Li chaired since he became Premier, coming up 146 times, followed by 140 references to "employment", 125 to the phrase "people's livelihood", and 115 to "fiscal management".

China Business News report yesterday that since March 2013, 19 of Li's State Council meetings had focused on reform, 17 on people's livelihood, 14 on streamlining government, 11 on public service, and 10 on business start-ups and innovation.
