History
The history of the company could be traced back to 1950 which two bureaus of the Ministry of Railways were formed (Chinese: 工程总局; lit. 'construction bureau' and Chinese: 设计总局; lit. 'design bureau').[1] In 1958, the design bureau and the construction bureau were merged to form the General Bureau of Capital Construction of the Ministry of Railways (Chinese: 铁道部基本建设总局). From 1950 to 1990, the General Bureau was a government agency for many railway construction as well as highway bridge. A subsidiary of the General Bureau, The Major Bridge Engineering Bureau, now China Railway Major Bridge Engineering Group was said to construct over 1,000 bridges from 1953 to 2009.[2]
In 1989, the Ministry of Railways decided to form China Railway Engineering Corporation (Chinese: 中国铁路工程总公司; CRECG)[3] as well as fellow competitor China Railway Construction Corporation (CRCCG) as subsidiaries. CRECG was formally registered on 7 March 1990.[3] In 2000, they were transferred from the ministry to "Central Large Enterprise Work Commission" of the Communist Party of China. In 2003, they were under supervision of State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC), a commission of the State Council. Since then, they became competitors despite both being state-owned.
Numbers of former subsidiary of CRECG were now belongs to CRCCG, such as China Railway First Survey and Design Institute Group.[4]
In 2007, a limited company was incorporated (China Railway Group Limited), CRECG transferred most of their assets to the subsidiary.[5] In 2008, the subsidiary became a publicly traded company which floats in Shanghai and Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
