Chapter 1216: Problems in Development

When Liu Tao's special plane arrived at the Beijing Airport, it was already bright.

After getting off the plane, I got on the special car directly.

After returning to the courtyard, Liu Tao took a bath and fell asleep.

Around noon, I got up and had breakfast.

The secretary has compiled the news related to the two sessions for Liu Tao to read.

The Two Sessions are undoubtedly the most common occasion and time for participation in and discussion of politics. It is not just the deputies to the National People's Congress and the CPPCC who speak freely and actively participate in the discussion of politics, but also the participation of the whole people.

Many people will actively participate in it through the Internet.

One of the obviously hottest topics this year is food safety.

Since ancient times, food has been the most important thing for people!

If we say that after the reform and opening up, what everyone pursued in the 1980s was to have enough food and solve the problem of food and clothing.

In the 1990s, after solving the problem of food and clothing, people began to pursue eating well, eating richly, diversely, and with rich and balanced nutrition.

After entering the new millennium, people began to shift towards eating well, eating healthily, and eating safely!

In this context, food safety issues have become increasingly prominent and received more attention. There are more and more food safety issues in the two sessions, and they are becoming more and more popular.

This year's two sessions, in terms of issues, food safety has become the hottest topic.

How to strengthen legislation, law enforcement, drug supervision and quality inspection in the field of food safety has become a hot topic.

Then there is another topic that is known as the most difficult topic this year, which is about educational equity.

Educational issues have been repeatedly bombarded by deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. The problem of "school choice fees" in key schools caused by inequality in educational resources has been particularly strong. Many people suggest abolishing the key school system and emphasizing that educational resources in the compulsory education stage should be equitable. It is not appropriate to establish a hierarchical system in the compulsory education stage and cancel the existing key middle schools, key classes and other systems.

And the education problem is not just that. The semester housing system that was launched back then is also causing various problems. There is a huge gap between rural education, county education and urban education.

Educational issues involve all aspects, and it is precisely because of this that there are too many educational issues that need to be resolved under the current situation.

This question is also known as the ‘most difficult’ topic!

There are so many threads and so many interested parties involved!

Then there is what is called the ‘most urgent topic’ – lowering housing prices!

Voices are rising regarding suggestions that the government strengthen macro-control of the real estate market. Many people believe that developers gain high profits from rising housing prices, and the government gains large amounts of income from rising land prices. Some people make money through real estate speculation. money. On the other hand, many city residents cannot afford housing, and there is a lot of talk in the streets.

Among them, there are also hidden problems such as market distortion and price bubbles.

Housing prices continue to rise, but the government's regulatory measures have not yet been implemented.

One representative even said helplessly: "We are talking about housing prices here. Maybe housing prices are still going up at this moment."

There is another topic called "the most helpless topic", which is seeing a doctor and taking medicine!

The problem of difficult and expensive medical treatment has become increasingly prominent.

Hospitals have increased revenue, medical staff have received kickbacks, and the imperfect medical security system has also made the problem of "difficulty in seeing a doctor and expensive medication" more obvious.

There is also the problem of uneven medical resources in rural areas, counties, and cities. 20% of the urban population enjoys 80% of the health resources, while the vast majority of the rural population lacks medical care and medicine.

This topic is a ‘commonplace’ topic. However, although drug prices seem to have dropped, people just don't feel it.

Of course, there is also the issue of ‘agriculture, rural areas and farmers’ which has been a hot topic since the reform and opening up!

The cancellation of a series of burden-reducing policies such as agricultural taxes and direct grain subsidies has promoted the adjustment of the agricultural economic structure.

But even though we have been investing money in rural areas for so many years, the gap between rural areas and cities is still widening.

After watching the news, Liu Tao knew a lot about the two sessions.

Over the past two decades, problems have been continuously solved, and with the development of society, more problems have emerged.

In the 1980s, there was a housing problem and it was necessary to solve the housing problem. Government agencies, institutions, and state-owned enterprises invested money to build welfare housing, and carried out internal welfare housing allocation.

In the 1990s, the pause button was pressed on welfare housing distribution, and commercial housing became the mainstream. Driven by the huge market demand, a large number of residential communities were built in various cities across the country, along with supporting shopping malls, schools, etc. stand up.

It has been ten years now.

There is not much public space, and there are few problems with project quality.

However, driven by the market, housing prices have increased very rapidly in the past ten years.

Everyone in China wants to have a home, and only when you have a house can you have a home, and renting a house does not count.

This has made the commercial housing market extremely hot, and housing prices are also rising.

The average house price in Magic City is 8,600 RMB/square meter, in Beijing it is 6,200 RMB/square meter, in Pengcheng it is 6,000 RMB/square meter, and in Yangcheng it is 5,660 RMB/square meter.

In the top ten cities in the country, the average house price exceeds 5,000 RMB/square meter. In the 11th to 20th largest cities in the country, the average house price exceeds 4,000 RMB/square meter. In the 21st to 30th largest cities, the average house price exceeds 3,000 RMB/square meter. Square meters, the 31st to 50th largest cities, the average house price exceeds 2,000 yuan/square meter.

In almost all counties, housing prices exceed RMB 1,000 per square meter!

This is because the government has built a large number of low-rent housing, and the Panshan Group system has built tens of millions of houses. It has tried its best to restrict the employees of the Panshan Group system from buying commercial housing. As a result, the housing prices of commercial housing in the market have still risen to this level.

Ordinary people want to lower housing prices more and more. In their view, after working hard for a month, they can only buy a house of one or two square meters. Only in the year of the monkey can they have a house that truly belongs to them.

Buying a house with a loan requires you to bear a heavy mortgage!

Therefore, ordinary people are eager to lower housing prices.

This problem also troubles the government.

Because the government has built tens of millions of low-rent housing units across the country, the rents are not high and can even be quite favorable, thereby curbing the rise in housing prices, but people still want to buy commercial housing.

But the government cannot interfere too much in the real estate market, because it is market-driven. Everyone has money and wants to buy a house, so housing prices will naturally increase.

Those who don’t have a house want to buy a house, and those who have a house want to buy a better house.

Liu Tao sighed softly, "Governing the country is just four words, but it is not easy. There are a lot of problems, and many of them are not easy to solve."

But they all must be resolved, because the longer it is delayed, the more stubborn the disease will be and the more difficult it will be to resolve, and the greater the accumulation of public resentment will be.

Picking up the notebook, Liu Tao took off the pen cap and wrote on it. (End of chapter)
