An expansion in employment as a result of steady economic recovery will further promote sound growth of China's economy, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said. According to Xinhua, Li said employment is the foundation of people's well-being and development as well as a source of wealth. China still faces mounting pressures in boosting employment this year, as about 14 million urban people will enter the labor market, including a record 9.09 million college graduates, and over 270 million migrant workers also need job opportunities, Li said. The country will continue with the job-first policy this year and take more measures to stabilize and boost employment, the premier added. China aims to create no less than 11 million new urban jobs in 2021.
