Demand Immediate Action to Boost Economic Security and Social Investment in China
Related Article: China's factory output, retail sales growth slump in blow to economy - Economy - The Jakarta Post - thejakartapost.com - Friday, August 15, 2025, 5:08:11 AM Eastern Daylight Time
Target: The State Council of the People's Republic of China and the National Development and Reform Commission
Goal: We call on the Chinese government to implement robust, people-centered stimulus measures, strengthen the social safety net, and invest in green, high-tech industries to secure a fair and resilient economic future for all.
Recent reports reveal that China's factory output growth has dropped to an eight-month low, while retail sales have slowed sharply. These trends signal deepening economic insecurity for millions of workers and families, especially as the property sector continues to stagnate and job security remains uncertain.
Despite previous policy measures, the benefits have faded, leaving the economy vulnerable to global shocks, extreme weather, and excessive competition. Meanwhile, falling home prices are eroding household wealth, further undermining consumer confidence and spending.
It is clear that more ambitious, people-first policies are urgently needed. We urge the government to prioritize direct support for workers and families, expand public investment in green and high-tech sectors, and strengthen protections for the most vulnerable. Only by centering the needs of ordinary people can China achieve sustainable growth and social stability.
Key Demands
- Immediately expand direct fiscal support for low- and middle-income households to boost domestic consumption.
- Increase public investment in green infrastructure, renewable energy, and high-tech industries to create quality jobs and drive sustainable growth.
- Strengthen labor protections, raise the minimum wage, and ensure job security for all workers.
- Expand and improve the social safety net, including unemployment benefits, health care, and affordable housing.
- Implement progressive taxation on wealth and speculative property holdings to fund social programs and reduce inequality.
- Support small businesses and cooperatives with targeted grants and low-interest loans, prioritizing local economies and innovation.
