China likely to create over 13m new jobs

China’s job market has proved resilient, despite slowing economic growth, with more than 13 million new jobs expected to be created this year, said a senior Chinese official.

China’s registered urban jobless rate will stay at a "relatively low" level, Yin Weimin, human resources and social security minister, said on Thursday at a work conference, without giving a specific figure.

The new jobs data will beat the government’s full-year target of at least 10 million jobs.
