The government is currently holding its annual parliamentary meeting known as the two sessions. The worlds second largest economy has set a Growth Target of around 5 , which it achieved last year. But there are several headwinds, including the high Unemployment Rate among the youth population, many of them graduates. The bbc� s nick marsh has more. If you are graduating from university in china right now, you are entering a tough economic environment. Employers are feeling cautious as they are feeling cautious as they are holding off from hiring. Also, dont forget the government in beijing has been cracking down in recent years on Certain Industries such as private education and 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 collared jobs 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. For these young people, there is a safety net. Many of them are an only child and they can 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, taking turns between lying flat and then jumping taking turns between lying flat and thenjumping into the taking turns between lying flat and then jumping into the Super Intensejob hunt rat and then jumping into the super intense Job Hunt Rat Race and then going back to lying flat again. What will beijing do about this problem . Well, 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 any more. There are new developing industries such as ai super powerful computing, thats not going to do anything in the short term, really. For now, the president has told chinas young people they need to eat bitterness, which in chinese means to just grit your teeth and bear it.

Thats higher than many countries in the region. Dan wang, Chief Economist at Hang Seng Bank china explained the impact that is having on the chinese economy. Its direct impact on the economy is not so obvious because the issue is quite invisible on its own but the consumption for this youth group between the ages of 16 and 2a is too high. They can get support from their family and they have a new habit of borrowing online and off line. In terms, theirjob prospects are quite dire but in terms of the impact on the economy, not very high. We the impact on the economy, not very high very high. We heard nick say there is no very high. We heard nick say there is no quick very high. We heard nick say there is no quick fix very high. We heard nick say there is no quick fix solution | there is no quick fix solution for chinas government, the delay have the tools to fix the issue . ,. , , issue . The government is still followin issue . The government is still following their issue . The government is still following their traditional following their traditional ways of helping those Fresh Graduates, one way ways to encourage the public sector, all levels of government, state owned enterprises to hire as many as they can. But that amount is quite limited. Another way they used to rely on is to ask students to stay in school for as long as possible. This will postpone the problem for another year or two and the economy may not necessarily climb out of this Business Cycle by then. To a story some of us may know � all too well�.

Theres going to be a point where its going to be a danger to life. Some of the piles are really dangerous and with the heavy rain, its filling them in so you dont actually see them. You cant drive i in a straight line. You literally have to swerve potholes on every road. One of the methods of fixing or preventing potholes is using a jet patcher like this one.

Yeah. However, Opposition Councillors believe that more money could be spent on road maintenance. Well, its really important that we make our roads kind of easierfor people to get around on. So absolutely, we support more money going into potholes. We found some extra money that could have gone in. Now we understand why they might not have chosen to do that, but we found extra money from some back Office Funding that would have put a little bit more into fixing our potholes.
