Despite the unusual display came a few days before the annual meeting of the National People's Party, China's rubber-stamp parliament, and must put pressure on politicians.

At present, strict household registration system called hukou, means that all Chinese families can only claim social benefits like health care and education in his hometown.

The scheme was introduced in 1958 by the Communist Party in order to prevent mass migration from rural to urban areas in China and make sure there is always sufficient staff on collectivized farms in the country and state enterprises.



However, since the economic opening of China in the 1970s, approximately 200 million people from the mainland to work in coastal cities of the country to help the country migrated to create an economic miracle.

These immigrants are forced to live a precarious existence on the margins of society.

People in China have suffered the hukou system long ago,  says the editorial.  We believe that human beings are born free and migrate to the right. We have launched this joint editorial and invited representatives of the National People's Congress and Political Consulative Chinese People's Conference for a good cause of political power for you and authorities to implement a reform to abolish the hukou system ossified,  it has.

Although many cities, especially Shanghai presses, through reform, considered as migrants and local basis, would be a radical reform of the hukou as a great challenge.

While 75 percent of China's population is likely in the next 30 years will be urban, China is moving cautiously in adopting the sudden influx of workers in cities where there are jobs.

June Han, head of the Agricultural Economics Department's research arm of China's State Council, said the government never  go  to countries like India and Brazil, which allowed millions of people to move to the cities have no economy, it helps.  That way leads to poor neighborhoods as in Rio de Janeiro,  he said.

Sagte Herr Han, die Regierung ist die  Nummer eins Politik in diesem Jahr  sei  Hukou Wesentlichen zu im-Reformieren system. Migranten-Die Bev枚lkerung wird die gleichen Rechte in Bezug auf und Vorteile  Schulbildung, soziale Sicherheit und Vermietung von H盲usern . This is a very, very clear.  The editorial appeared in a series of urban and rural newspapers, with some of the largest reserves in China, the path, including the Economic Observer in Beijing and Southern Metropolis Daily in Guangzhou.
