Beijing will send 3,000 university graduates to work as junior officials in rural areas this year, 1,000 more than 2006, to help build a "new socialist countryside" and ease employment pressures.

 

They'll work as assistants to village heads in the outskirts of Beijing, said Sun Zhenyu, deputy director of Beijing Municipal Bureau of Personnel. The move would help train more grass-roots professionals to serve the countryside and farmers, Sun said.

 

And the city would select about 1,500 graduates to serve as rural teachers and village doctors and another 1,500 to offer volunteer services this year, Sun explained.

 

The central government launched the "new socialist countryside" initiative in 2005. It's designed to improve agricultural production, living standards and public administration in underdeveloped rural areas. Nearly 900 million of China's 1.3 billion people live in such areas.

 

A string of measures have been introduced to help build a "new socialist countryside."

 

The central government issued a circular in July 2005 calling on university graduates to seek jobs at grass-roots levels to satisfy the need for professionals in rural areas and to ease the employment pressure in cities.

 

"Grass-roots" work has wide meaning in China and includes working in the less-developed western region, underprivileged towns and rural areas, urban communities, medium and small companies and self-employment. These occupations are all traditionally seen as less prestigious after higher education.

 

In response to the call Beijing picked 2,000 university graduates to work as assistants to village heads in the countryside last year, Sun said.

 

Nationwide about 150,000 university graduates found employment at grass-roots level last year, according to the Ministry of Education. The government-supported move also created job opportunities for university students who've found it increasingly difficult to secure work in big cities.

 

The ministry predicts 4.95 million students will graduate from higher learning institutions this year. This is 820,000 more than last year. About 1.4 million of them --- three out of 10 --- are unlikely to find jobs on graduation because of a tight employment market.

 

For Beijing the number of university graduates will reach an all-time high of nearly 200,000 this year but only about 87,000 graduate jobs are expected to be on offer, according to the Personnel Bureau.

 

"The situation is not optimistic," Sun observed.
