However, along with the deepening of reform of state-owned enterprises, the readjustment of the industrial structure and increase in the use of science and technology, the number of personnel laid off from state-owned enterprises is also on the increase, there are also laid-off personnel in non-state-owned enterprises, in addition, with the structural reform of local governments this year, the size of staff will be cut, so the employment problem remains very grim. The key to solving this problem lies in improving employment policies, it is necessary to fully mobilize social forces and try by all possible means to open up employment channels and find an employment way out for laid-off and diverted personnel, so as to maintain social stability. Non-publicly owned economy is an important component of the socialist market economy, as well as an important channel for solving the social employment problem. 　　Uphold the 'One Country, Two Systems" Principle to Accomplish Reunification 　　In this article the author Zhang Kehui says: It is necessary to adhere to the "one country, two systems" principle so as to accomplish the great, historical cause of the reunification of the motherland at an early date.
