Expert interpretation of the report: Improving people's livelihood is the essence of high-quality development.

Researcher Wei Qijia from the National Development and Reform Commission National Information Center: The importance of ensuring and improving people's livelihoods can be seen from three aspects: From a macro perspective, the better and more detailed the work of protecting and improving people's livelihoods is done, the more it can reflect the overall national strength. It can be said that a strong country and prosperous people are dialectically unified. For a large economy like China, an important indicator of the continuous improvement of national strength is the intensity of our protection and improvement of people's livelihoods. From a meso perspective, protecting and improving people's livelihoods, doing this work well and in detail, is actually beneficial for the smooth and complete operation of the entire modern industrial system. It can be said that in many aspects of the production, supply, storage, transportation of enterprises, to the final sales link, only after connecting with the protection and improvement of people's livelihoods, can a better closed loop be achieved. Allowing the development of enterprises to be supported by stronger demand cannot be separated from the protection and improvement of people's livelihoods. From a micro perspective, letting the people have a greater sense of gain, this sense of gain being more realistic, also cannot be separated from the implementation and details of one livelihood project after another.
