People's Well-being

Work hard to implement education to the satisfaction of the people. We should provide education for all students, and cultivate creativity in them. We should vigorously promote fairness in education, with a focus on rural, remote, poor and ethnic minority areas. We should support special education, increase subsidies to students from poor families, and ensure that children of rural migrant workers in cities have equal access to education. We should encourage and guide non-governmental entities to run educational programs.

Create more jobs. We must implement the principle of promoting self-reliant, market-regulated and government-backed employment and entrepreneurship, as well as the strategy of giving top priority to employment and a proactive employment policy. We should strengthen supervision of labor protection and labor dispute mediation and arbitration, and build harmonious relationship between employers and employees.

Make every effort to increase individual income. We must deepen reform of the income distribution system, and increase individual income in step with economic development and work remuneration in step with improvement in labor productivity, and we should raise the share of individual income in the distribution of national income and increase the share of work remuneration in primary distribution. We should increase proprietary individual income through multiple channels.

Promote the social security system in urban and rural areas. We should reform and improve the social insurance system for enterprises as well as government bodies and public institutions, integrate the basic old-age insurance and basic medical insurance systems for non-working urban residents and the rural population, and establish mechanisms for setting standards on social security benefits and for regular adjustment.

Improve people's health. We should put disease prevention first, make rural areas the focus of our work, support both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, establish a sound mechanism for basic medical and health care and strengthen such endeavors at the community level. We should give high priority to carrying out overall reform in medical insurance, medical treatment, public health, drug supply, and the mechanism of monitoring and supervision.

Social management

Strengthen and innovate social management. We should improve the way in which the government provides public services; strengthen the system of social management and services at the community level; and ensure that urban and rural communities provide better services. We should improve and make innovations in the management relating to and services for the migrant population. We should establish a sound mechanism for assessing potential risks that major policy decisions may pose to social stability. We should improve the public safety system and the workplace safety environment in enterprises to curb serious accidents. We should improve the multi-dimensional system for crime prevention and control, and strengthen the infrastructure of judicial bodies. We should improve the national security strategy and its work mechanism, and keep high vigilance against and resolutely forestall separatist activities and activities of infiltration and subversion carried out by hostile forces, so as to ensure national security.

A Moderately Prosperous Society

The economy should maintain sustained and sound development. Major progress should be made in changing the growth model. On the basis of making China's development much more balanced, coordinated and sustainable, we should double its 2010 GDP and per-capita income for both urban and rural residents by 2020.

People's democracy should be expanded. The institutions of democracy should be improved and its forms enriched. The rule of law should be fully implemented as a basic strategy, a law-based government should be basically in function, judicial credibility should be steadily enhanced, and human rights should be fully respected and protected.

The country's cultural soft power should be improved significantly. Core socialist values should take root among the people. The cultural sector should become a pillar of the economy. We will lay a more solid foundation for developing a strong socialist culture in China.

Living standards should be fully raised. Equal access to basic public services should be generally achieved. The educational level of the entire population should be significantly raised and training of innovative professionals markedly improved. There should be more employment opportunities. Income gaps should be narrowed. Social security should cover all the people. Major progress should be made in building a resource-conserving and environmentally friendly society.
