16省份城鄉(xiāng)居民養(yǎng)老金上漲

More than half of China's provincial-level regions have increased the payment standard for basic old-age pensions for urban and rural residents, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said on Wednesday. According to the ministry, a total of 16 provincial-level regions in China have raised the payment standard, with a maximum rise of 100 yuan per month in some regions, covering more than 72 million elderly people.

人社部10月27日表示，截至目前，今年全國已有16省份提高了城鄉(xiāng)居民養(yǎng)老保險省級基礎養(yǎng)老金，占全部31個省級行政區(qū)的一半以上，最高每月上漲100元，惠及超過7200萬城鄉(xiāng)老人。

As of the end of 2020, there were over 542 million people in China participating in the basic old-age insurance plan, most of whom were rural residents.

截至2020年末，我國城鄉(xiāng)居民基本養(yǎng)老保險的參保人數超過5.42億人，絕大部分是農村居民。

In the next five years, China will continue to enhance the payment level gradually to safeguard people's livelihoods, according to the ministry.

人社部表示，十四五期間，為加強基本民生保障，我國城鄉(xiāng)居民養(yǎng)老金還會逐步提高。
