China to create over 13 mln jobs in 2018: Premier Li

Source:Xinhua Published: 2018/3/20

China aims to generate more than 13 million new urban jobs this year, Premier Li Keqiang said Tuesday.

The minimal target is 11 million, but the government will work hard to reach the bigger goal, Li said at a press conference after the conclusion of the annual legislative session.

Over the past five years, more than 66 million of new urban jobs have been created, said Li, adding that employment has always been an important thing not only for each family, but for governments at all levels.

Li said at least 3 million new rural migrant workers will seek jobs in cities in 2018. "It is the responsibility of the government to provide stable job opportunities for these people," he said.

China has around 280 million rural migrant workers in cities, who have played important roles in the country's urbanization drive, Li noted.

This year, there will be a record 8.2 million college graduates, 5 million graduates from secondary vocational schools and nearly 1 million demobilized military personnel and workers affected by the cut of overcapacity, according to Li.

"We must work very hard to ensure there will be jobs for these people, and do our best to avoid zero-employment families," said Li.

A number which Pakistani youth needs to get out of poverty, injustice, slavery of seths and so many other things. A Pakistani youngster watches any job as a "opportunity". This nation can perform more miracles as compared to Chinese. A number of entrepreneurs are creating their chances by themselves. Chinese companies should harvest the talent of Pakistani youth. There are more engineers in China as compared to total number of unemployed youth in Pakistan.

China should help Pakistan to tap the talent of unemployed ones because there is one hurdle in pursuing the life goals of a youngster which is a job. They can marry, can travel, can invest, can chartiy after taking job. Pakistani economy needs a CPEC in job sector. Everything depends on it. 20 economic zones in CPEC should give jobs to atleast 2 million graduate jobless youngsters otherwise there will be no fruit.

China is trying to improve the infrastructure of Pakistan.
The gradual improvement of electricity and transportation can attract more Chinese enterprises to enter.
Enterprises need electricity production, highway transportation of goods.
Soon, everything will get better slowly.

We have a word: to be rich, to fix the road first

The first condition: You need a good government.

I guess there are parliamentary elections coming up in late summer.

You may consider adding some more "socialist/leftist" hue into Pakistan's political landscape :enjoy:. That would definitely help by bringing people back to this world in a more secular way.

Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and newly-elected vice premiers attended a press conference at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Tuesday, following the closing meeting of the first session of the 13th National People’s Congress.

Premier Li answered questions on various topics including China's reform and opening-up, economic strategy, foreign policy and people's livelihood.

Here are the highlights from the press conference:

On China's reform and opening up in new era

Premier Li Keqiang said China will open its door even wider to the world than before, with an aim to ensure both Chinese and foreign investors to compete in a fair market.

Li listed several measures including to further widen market access to education, health care and financial services, to fully open up in manufacturing sectors, to better protect intellectual property rights (IPR), and to shorten the negative list of foreign investment.

On transformation of government function

Premier Li pledged that the government will further cut the red tape and further streamline the accession process to the market.

He stressed that it is a must to undertake strong reform measures as “small steps are critical to achieving a bigger policy goal.”

To improve business environment, the government will cut the time it takes for opening businesses by another half, reduce the time required for reviewing a project application by another half and put in the national place a platform for accessing government services, he detailed.

Other measures include allowing people to get things done in one place without a need for a second trip and to ensure that any requirement for certification that has no basis in law or regulation will be abolished, Li told reporters.

On Korean Peninsula issues

China welcomes recent de-escalation on the Korean Peninsula, Premier Li said, saying China will continue its role in promoting dialogue and pushing for denuclearization process.

On private enterprises’ skepticism

Noting some skepticism from private enterprises, Li Keqiang stressed that businesses of all types of ownership have all made their contributions to china’s economic growth since reform and opening up.

“Private investment has been relatively weak, but we have paid high attention to this problem,” Li said.

Li said that the rural land contracts will be extended for another 30 years and more measures will be taken to protect legal property rights by law.

On criticism over China’s economic strategies

Premier Li said China will never seek expansion and follow the footsteps of big powers which sought hegemony once they grew strong.

“”In some areas, the international community may hope that China will play a greater role, but China will fulfill its due international responsibilities that is commensurate with its status as a large developing country," Li said, "It will be a misunderstanding to interpret China playing such a role as to seek strategic expansion."

On employment concerns

In a question about employment, the premier said the government is expecting to generate around 13 million new jobs in 2018.

In 2018, China sees a record-high of 8.2 million college graduates, five million graduates of secondary vocational schools and one million demobilized military personnel and workers affected by overcapacity cuts, Li told reporters.

On China-US trade relations

"No winners will emerge in a trade war," said Premier Li when answering a question on China's measures in case of trade war between Beijing and Washington.

Li maintained that China will firmly protect intellectual property rights, and expressed hope that the US will ease restrictions on exports of high-value added goods to China and seek balanced China-US trade.

On systematic financial risks

Li said China is capable of forestalling systemic financial risks, ruling out the possibility of such risks in the country.

"The fundamentals of the Chinese economy are sound and the financial sector is stable," Li told the press conference.

On China-Russia relations

China and Russia are each other's biggest neighbors, Premier Li said, adding that the stable and friendly development of bilateral relations is beneficial to both countries and to the world.

On cross-Strait relations

China should not tolerate any external forces using Taiwan as a card to cause difficulties for the cross-Strait relations, Li said, adding that continuous efforts will be made to pursue the peaceful development of ties.

"We should ensure fellow countrymen and women from Taiwan will be able to enjoy the same treatment as mainlanders when they come to work and study in the mainland, because we are members of the same family," he said.

On health care issues

Li said China improved its basic health care system over the past few years, but some families still fall through the safety net.

The government will take measures to better serve those with serious diseases which can push families back into poverty, Li said.

On China-Japan relations

Premier Li said he is actively considering paying an official visit to Japan when he attends the China-Japan-ROK leaders' meeting in the country later this year.

On ‘Internet Plus’

The Internet Plus model has played a very important role in ensuring the stable growth of China’s economy “like a new sail being installed on the big ship of China's economy, riding the wave of a new round of global technological innovation,” adding the model has profoundly changed China.

The government will adopt a prudent and an accommodating approach in exercising regulations on new systems, Li said. More measures will be taken, such as create favorable conditions for some internet markets listed overseas to return to the A-share markets.

On Hong Kong SAR

Li Keqiang said it is fundamental to uphold the "One Country, Two Systems" principle in boosting the cooperation between Hong Kong SAR and Chinese mainland, when addressing to the question whether economic integration will blur the "Two Systems".

Li said the central government adheres to "One Country, Two Systems" in Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions and to the principles of "Hong Kong people administering Hong Kong" and "Macao people administering Macao".

On old-age pension

Li said China is capable to pay old-age pensions timely and in full despite of difficulties in some provinces and the central government will continue their reform to ensure the adequate support for pension payment.
