Gender issue to get more government attention
Women's development will be incorporated into the government's overall plan for social progress, as it strives to ensure equity for men and women, State Councilor Liu Yandong said on Friday.
Speaking at the closing session of the 10th National Women's Congress, Liu made the promise on behalf of the central government.
"It is the duty of governments at all levels to enforce the national policy of equity for men and women," said Liu, who is also the chair of the National Working Committee on Children and Women under the State Council.
