Faced with the strong reaction of the international community, the North Korean government issued a statement on June 5438+07, saying that nuclear testing is "an independent and legitimate right of sovereign countries" and an "active defensive measure" to safeguard national security. The statement said that the Security Council resolution was a "declaration of war" against the DPRK based on the American script, and the DPRK "strongly condemned and resolutely refused to accept" the resolution. Moreover, information from countries such as the United States, Japan and South Korea shows that North Korea is preparing to conduct a second or more nuclear test.
At present, the US Secretary of State is visiting Japan, South Korea, China, Russia and other countries. The central topic is to discuss how to implement the Security Council resolutions and find a solution to alleviate the current sharp rise in the North Korean nuclear crisis. The China government has always advocated the resumption of the Six-Party Talks as soon as possible and the settlement of the issue through diplomatic channels. The US government also expressed its willingness to return to the Six-Party Talks unconditionally. While conducting a nuclear test, the North Korean government also expressed its intention to resolve the nuclear crisis through diplomatic negotiations. Whether the North Korean government can actively respond to the six-party talks in the future has become the focus of attention.
It is true that the past rounds of six-party talks failed to achieve the goal of preventing North Korea from developing nuclear weapons, which led to a crisis of confidence in the prospects of the six-party talks. However, even in the current situation, countries including the United States still firmly believe that the DPRK nuclear crisis must be resolved through peaceful diplomatic means. In this sense, although the Six-Party Talks is not a perfect and effective way, it is still the only realistic way to solve the Korean nuclear crisis diplomatically accepted by all countries in the current situation.
Therefore, as long as the six parties can rebuild their confidence in the talks on the basis of summing up past experiences and lessons, and further improve, enrich and strengthen the six-party talks mechanism, new progress can be made on the road of diplomatic settlement of the Korean nuclear crisis. To this end, the United States and the DPRK should show flexibility and make more efforts to restart the six-party talks.
2. Look at the tide of migrant workers returning home
What attracts people's attention recently is the news that migrant workers return home.
According to the news of Anhui media165438+1October 30th, 400,000 migrant workers have returned home in advance, accounting for 3.6% of the total number of migrant workers. This is another province that can specifically report the exact number of migrant workers returning home after Jiangxi, a major labor export province. Earlier, Jiangxi Province reported that 300,000 migrant workers had returned home.
In the face of the impact of the financial crisis, rumors about the closure of enterprises and the return of migrant workers are endless, but the figures in many rumors are quickly questioned. This reminds us that the most basic and urgent task to deal with the financial crisis is to master accurate and dynamic information in case the decision-making departments put forward corresponding countermeasures. Of course, migrant workers are scattered and mobile, and it is quite difficult to collect information, so it is reasonable to lag behind a little. However, local governments should pay close attention to relevant developments. It is really commendable that Jiangxi and Anhui provinces can grasp more accurate information in time.
When it comes to "migrant workers returning home", many reports are mostly nervous. However, it is worth analyzing that a large number of migrant workers return home early, although it is not what we want to see, but the specific situation needs to be treated differently.
From the perspective of industrial layout. The employment situation of the labor force has always been the vane of the industrial situation. 30 years of reform and opening up, because of the rise of export-oriented and labor-intensive industries in the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta, a large number of rural laborers have moved to the southeast coast. Now, under the influence of RMB appreciation, exchange rate changes, financial crisis and other factors, labor-intensive industries are squeezed, and it is inevitable that some enterprises will shut down and turn. Under this premise, it is an option for migrant workers from closed enterprises to return to their hometowns. It can be said that the return of labor force this time may be to accumulate energy for the next industrial upgrading, provided, of course, that relevant localities and departments can actively guide and formulate training plans as soon as possible.
Starting from the actual situation of migrant workers. According to the analysis, there are several situations in which migrant workers return home early: First, they think that their income in the city is not high at present, and the cost of living in their hometown may be lower than that in the city, so they have no choice but to go home and wait for opportunities. Second, a series of national policies tilt towards the countryside, making them feel that there may be opportunities for development in their hometown. From a practical point of view, these two situations are not unreasonable. The transfer of migrant workers from rural areas to coastal areas is based on the premise that cities have enough employment space. If the employment space is reduced or the input-output ratio is uneconomical, migrant workers naturally have the right to make a decision to stay.
It is a simple truth that the use of labor fluctuates with the fluctuation of industry. It's just that such fluctuations come so suddenly that we can't adapt to them for a while. After a long period of large-scale migration of migrant workers from west to east, not long ago we encountered a "shortage of migrant workers". When this problem has not been solved, we can't wait to face the tide of a large number of migrant workers being laid off and returning home. The invisible hand of the market, although seemingly unfathomable and difficult to control, still has traces to follow. The early emergence of the tide of returning home is not only a signal of economic turn worthy of attention, but also a realistic economic phenomenon that needs to be directly faced and solved. In fact, we should pay attention to it long ago and take corresponding measures. Now, the global financial crisis provides us with an opportunity.
The return of a large number of migrant workers has made us rethink the adjustment of industrial structure and how to use surplus labor force, and made new explorations. All localities and departments have begun to act. Jiangxi, Anhui, Hubei and other places guide migrant workers to work in enterprises in the province and carry out training; The Ministry of Education also issued a notice to vocational schools to train migrant workers returning home. These measures are all positive. If effective, it will be a new opportunity to turn "crisis" into "opportunity"
