Whatever the approaches may be, education and human resource are the crucial issues concerning the sustainable development of Guangdong. This conclusion is drawn by both Governor Huang Huahua and his international business advisors in today's closed-door conference of GDICC 2005 plenary.
In recent years, great efforts has been made to improve Guangdong's education sector and attract more talents, but the development of its education and of human resources is not sufficient to meet the requirements of the social and economic development, said Xie Qianghua, Vice Governor of Guangdong, on the conference.
To quicken the development of education and human resources, Guangdong has formulated the Program for educational Modernization Construction. It is planned that by 2010, there will be a basic popularization of 12-year education from primary school all the way to senior high school and people above 25 years old will have a schooling of 10 years on the average. The province will work on the following aspects:
1. Promoting the development of education in an all-round way.
2. Forging ahead reforms in education, and establishing diversified educational mechanisms.
3. Pressing ahead the development of human resources in an all-around way.
