Katie silva in our newsroom in singapore. Katie mentioned wang yi also talked about the economy of china, that is where we are going to turn our attention to next because it has set its Growth Target of around 5 for the year ahead, and there are several headwinds plaguing china when it comes to that, including the high Unemployment Rate among the youth population. Here is our nick marsh with more. If you are graduating from university in china you are entering a tough path. The government in beijing has been cracking down on Certain Industries such as private education, the tech sector, not to mention the Property Sector which is in crisis right now, all of which have been popular destinations for Fresh Graduates in the past. There is also the question of what kind ofjobs are available. Young graduates want to become young professionals, they dontjust want to work in a factory or work as a delivery driver, and even many white collarjobs even many white collar jobs arent even many white collarjobs arent that appealing to chinas very well educated middle class, who have come to expect more than just a humdrum average officejob, especially seeing as they have studied so hard to get their degree in the first place. And for these young people there is a safety net. Many of them are an only child and they can just simply live at home with their parents. In china people talk about lying flat. This is what people describe it as, people also talk about doing sit ups, so taking turns between lying flat and then jumping so taking turns between lying flat and thenjumping into so taking turns between lying flat and then jumping into the Super Intensejob hunt flat and then jumping into the super intense Job Hunt Rat Race and then going back to laying flat again. So what will beijing do about this problem . Like many issues with chinas economy, there is no such thing as a quick fix. We are talking about a society that is getting wealthier, better educated and more urbanised. The old ways of Generating Jobs and prosperity, building things, making things for export, that isjust building things, making things for export, that is just not going to be enough anymore. There are new developing industries such as or super powerful computing, but thats not going to do anything in the short term really. For now, president xijinping has short term really. For now, president xi jinping has told chinas young people they need to eat bitterness, which in chinese means to just grit your teeth and bear it. Nick marsh there.
