However,the report also stressed that some existing social problems will probably
worsen in the initial period of membership in the world trade body.
The first problem is unemployment,especially in urban areas.
Despite the fact that membership in the WTO should boost economic growth,the
increase will not be able to solve the already-serious unemployment problem.
The report estimates that about 20 per cent of the staff in State-owned enterprises in
urban areas is redundant.The competition that must come with WTO membership will force these enterprises to lay off more workers.
And the number of unemployed labourers in rural China is in the neighbourhood of 150 million.Imports of agricultural products will increase with WTO membership,and many of the small and poorly managed township enterprises are likely to be squeezed out of the increasingly competitive market.Therefore,it is not realistic to hope the unemployed rural labourers will be absorbed in the changing market in the short term,warned the article.
On the other hand,the labourers may flow into cities and towns to find work.There are already 10 million laid-off workers and unemployed personnel in urban areas,and there will be an increase of 10 million new labourers every year.It will be impossible for the urban areas to absorb such numbers of unemployed people,even with the economy growing as fast as it is now.
Some estimate that the actual unemployment rate in urban areas is around
10 per cent at the present time,and this figure may rise to 15 per cent in the transition period following WTO entry.
The finance,insurance,
telecommunications and distribution sectors
may be able to supply more jobs as they
develop.The textile,construction and food
processing sectors are also likely to hire more
people.But those sectors under long-term
protection and less competitive in the
international market,such as the automobile,
medicine,metallurgical and chemical
industries,are likely to suffer setbacks.Many
employees in these sectors may lose their jobs
now that the country is in the WTO.
Eeonomically and technologically
developed coastal provinces will see better
employment situations,while the central and
western regions will face more unemployment
pressures.
State-owned enterprises will have to lay
off some of their staff,while the private sector
will become the major source of new jobs.
The unemployment situation may give
rise to new social problems,which may
threaten social stability,noted the report.
And the unemployment problem in some
underdeveloped regions and among some
disadvantaged groups will be more seriously
felt.
Labourers with outdated skills may be
thrown out of the labour market completely
and unable to find new jobs.
Suplus rural labourers who cannot find
jobs in cities and towns may form a huge class
of vagrants.
