CHINA created jobs for more than 10 million urbanites in the first 10 months of the year, achieving a yearly goal much earlier than expected, according to Vice Minister Zhang Xiaojian of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security on Saturday.
The country's urban unemployment rate was registered at 4 percent by the end of September, down from 4.1 percent recorded at the end of last year, Zhang said, adding 95.7 percent of the country's former 'zero employment?families had at least one person finding jobs again. Statistics show that a total of 11.84 million urban Chinese found jobs last year, the first time China saw the number of newly employed urban people exceed 10 million in one year.
