Recently, National People's Congress (NPC) representative Mai Qingquan put forward a series of measures for providing for the aged, which was endorsed by NPC deputy Zhang Guangning. Their main discussion is to transform closed training centers and some luxurious holiday centers into nursing homes, which can solve the problem of providing for the aged. I think these suggestions are very good and can really bring a good environment to the elderly.
First of all, some training centers are actually useless. If it is used to run a nursing home, it can solve many problems of providing for the aged, at least in terms of facilities. As for some luxurious holiday centers, they are also idle and useless. If it is used to build nursing homes, it is a good way to increase many nursing homes and accommodate many elderly people in the country.
Training centers and holiday centers can reduce the funds for the construction of nursing homes, because these training centers and holiday centers have basically provided an environment for the elderly and can become places for the elderly with a little modification. Moreover, most of these places have a good environment and are suitable for the elderly to live in. Training centers and holiday centers are also relatively complete, and they can provide services for the elderly after direct training.
Attention should be paid to transforming closed training centers and holiday centers into nursing homes, which can increase a number of nursing homes throughout the country and reduce state expenditure. At the same time, because the buildings and equipment are basically complete, the opening of nursing homes can be accelerated. This is indeed a good proposal to solve the current pension problem, so I hope this proposal can be implemented as soon as possible, so that the pension problem in China will take a big step forward.
