Seeing the products of regional-industry factories, which are as good as those produced in the capital city, citizens of the capital city said with admiration:
-
They don't look like the products from provinces.
-
Really good are the tastes and colours of the basic foodstuffs.
-
Without the brand, it's hard to distinguish between the products from the capital city and the ones from provinces.
The gap between the capital city and provinces is narrowing like this. In the future regional-industry factories will be built in 200 cities and counties and such excellent goods be produced a lot.
