100 million Chinese to get greater city benefits

[BEIJING]More than 100 million Chinese are to be given vital documents making them officially residents of the country's cities under a broad plan for the urbanisation that is crucial to economic growth.
China's new leaders under President Xi Jinping who took office a year ago have touted "people-centred urbanisation" to raise the quality of life as well as just growth rates.
The "national plan for a new model of urbanisation" calls for measurable improvements such as extended social benefits, improved air quality - an issue that causes widespread public anger - and expanded public transport.
But analysts warned Monday that while the overarching strategy and the inclusion of specific targets were positive, the real question was whether the plan would be put into action.
The plan aims for 60 per cent of China's 1.36 billion people to live in cities by 2020 and for 45 per cent to have the vital urban residency registration, or "hukou", that gives them equal access to social benefits such as education and health care. This would compare with 52.6 per cent and 35.3 per cent as of 2012.
The stated goals include "work hard to achieve 100 million rural workers and other permanent residents obtaining urban hukou".
