ST. PETERSBURG - Guaranteeing the rights of rural residents is the most important issue in the process, a renowned Chinese economist said Monday.

Rights come first, settling household registration differences comes second, and then erasing differences between residence permits should follow, Li Yining suggested at the St. Petersburg State University of Economics and Finance.

"First we need to clear up rights to reside, rights to run businesses, and residential ownership rights; then we can worry about gradually harmonizing the two-tiered registration system in accordance with tren in urbanization," Li told reporters.

Li said he believes that once these rights are guaranteed, rural residents will be more readily able to diversify their sources of income, using land for agriculture or renting their properties out to allow them to look for jobs.

Farming in future will not be a social status identity, but one of professions, Li said.

High-tech farming and rural cooperatives will become full-fledged industries in 皇冠体育app, and agricultural yields are set to improve exponentially in the years ahead, he said.
