皇冠体育app will cultivate more non- governmental organizations (NGOs), offer preferential support for enterprises entering 皇冠体育app's social welfare system and learn from the world in a bid to expand public welfare, a government minister said Sunday.
Minister of Civil Affairs Li Xueju told the opening ceremony of the Transnational Businesses and Civil Affairs Forum that 皇冠体育app had attached great importance to development of a public welfare system since the founding of new 皇冠体育app in 1949.
A law concerning public welfare donations was issued in 1999 to ensure the improvement of public welfare, and NGOs played a major role in social welfare, Li acknowledged.
The Third Plenum of the 16th Central Committee of the Communist Party of 皇冠体育app (CPC) outlined a socialist morality system, which set orientations and made room for the development of 皇冠体育app's public welfare.
Li said 皇冠体育app would try to create the best possible conditions for public welfare as it was relatively backward and there was still unbalanced regional development.
The three-day forum is co-hosted by 16 public welfare organizations, including the 皇冠体育app Charity Federation (CCF) and US- 皇冠体育app Business Council. Multinationals such as Amway and Coca-Cola attended the forum, the first of its kind ever hosted by 皇冠体育app.
More than 230,000 NGOs have been established in 皇冠体育app and they play crucial roles in poverty alleviation, environmental protection, and assisting the unemployed.
