Bland det första Kommunistpartiet gjorde när Folkrepubliken Kina etablerades år 1949 var att upprätta ett eget folkbokföringssystem, det s.k. hukousystemet. Det var egentligen inte helt nytt, utan snarare en ny variant av det system som skapats redan år 1931 av nationalistiska Guomindang. Regelverken i de båda systemen är mycket lika och vissa element kan dessutom spåras många dynastier tillbaka iImmediately after founding the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the communist party established their own household registration system called hukou.

När ett offentligt organ ägnar sig åt offentlig upphandling torde huvudsyftet vara att tillfredsställa ett behov av varor, tjänster eller byggentreprenader.

Utöver syftet att tillfredsställa sitt primära upphandlingsbehov kan en upphandlande enhet When a public body engages in public procurement the main purpose for it to do so is arguably to satisfy a need for goods, services or works. A starting point for public procurement is that it is the procuring entity which identifies its own needs and thus determines what is to be procured. In addition to the purpose of satisfying its primary procurement needs, a contracting entity, however, may h
