Because the economy has been in a great recession, social security has had to adapt to protect people from different forms of poverty.
In 1992 Urban areas, only people without work, with no savings and with no family to depend on were eligible for financial support (CHIP). Though this is the main form of social relief in urban China, there are concerns that the amounts allocated are too small to meet people's basic needs (CHIP).
And needless to say there are still a significant amount of people that are excluded because they are unregistered migrants or are disqualified by local adminstrations.
I hope you find my blog information pertaining to Poverty in China be resourceful. And as always, I look forward to reading your as well.
