25 million more people seeking work this year, minister says
Employment challenges are growing due to an unbalanced job market and a large number of people seeking work, a top labor official said on Wednesday.
"Cities and towns will see 25 million more people join the workforce this year, over half of whom will be university and college graduates, while another 9 to 10 million will be surplus rural laborers," Yin Weimin, minister of human resources and social security, said at a news conference.
