　　Pensions ushered in "13 consecutive rises"

　

　　[Change] In 2017, pensions continued to increase, achieving "13 consecutive rises". The basic pension level of more than 100 million retirees has been raised by about 5.5%. The pensions of the elderly retirees and retirees from enterprises in remote and hard areas have risen a little more appropriately.

　

　　[Impact] As pensions rise, retirees get more money and their lives are more secure. Wu Yue, a 79-year-old retired doctor in Beijing, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com: "My pension can probably rise by more than 200 yuan a year, and now the pension level has reached more than 5,600 yuan, which is enough!"

　

　　The endowment insurance fund began to invest and operate.

　

　　[Change] This year’s pension has started the pace of investment and operation. According to the data released by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security in November, the investment in the basic old-age insurance fund has been carried out steadily. The governments of nine provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) such as Beijing and Anhui have signed entrusted investment contracts with the Social Security Fund Council, with a total contract value of 430 billion yuan, of which 180 billion yuan has been received and investment has begun.

　

　　[Impact] Chu Fuling, director of the China Social Security Research Center of the Central University of Finance and Economics, told reporters that the pressure of providing for the aged is increasing day by day. Under the principle of safe investment and steady investment, it is necessary to invest in the surplus funds of the endowment insurance fund in various ways, which is conducive to improving the income level and realizing the preservation and appreciation of the fund.

　　Inter-provincial medical treatment in different places can be directly settled.

　

　　[Change] In 2017, breakthrough was made in the direct settlement of cross-provincial medical treatment in different places. As of October 31, on the basis that all provincial medical treatment settlement systems and all co-ordination areas in China have been connected to the national medical treatment settlement system in different places, the number of designated medical institutions across provinces in China has increased to 7,688, and the number of registered people has reached 1.81 million.

　

　　[Impact] Direct settlement of medical treatment across provinces and different places saves the insured from the trouble of padding money and running back and forth. Tang Jisong, director of the Social Insurance Management Center of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said that all eligible insured persons can use this system to realize direct settlement of hospitalization expenses across provinces and different places, without having to advance their own funds and then reimburse them at the insured place.

　

　　Some state-owned assets enrich the social security fund.

　

　　[Changes] In November, the State Council announced the Implementation Plan for Transferring Part of State-owned Capital to Enrich the Social Security Fund, clarifying that the transfer ratio should be unified to 10% of the state-owned shares of enterprises, and requiring some central enterprises and some provinces to carry out pilot projects in 2017.

　

　　[Impact] Zhang Yinghua, executive researcher of the World Social Security Research Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com that with the "blood transfusion" of the social security fund, it will alleviate the pension gap, avoid transferring the gap to the next generation, realize intergenerational equity, and at the same time help to ensure the timely and full payment of pensions and resolve the impact of the aging population on the old-age insurance system.

　　Unified bookkeeping interest rate of employee pension insurance personal account

　

　　[Change] According to the "Measures for Unifying and Standardizing the Bookkeeping Interest Rate of Personal Accounts of Employees’ Endowment Insurance" issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security in April 2017, the bookkeeping interest rate of personal accounts of basic endowment insurance for government agencies, institutions and enterprises will be unified and announced by the state every year. The bookkeeping interest rate should be mainly determined by considering the factors such as the salary increase of employees and the balance of funds, and adjusted through reasonable coefficients. The bookkeeping interest rate shall not be lower than the bank time deposit interest rate.

　

　　[Impact] In the opinion of experts, it is helpful to realize institutional fairness to uniformly determine the bookkeeping interest rate of individual accounts of basic old-age insurance for government agencies, institutions and enterprise employees. The bookkeeping interest rate should not be lower than the bank time deposit interest rate, which will help guide the insured to actively participate in the insurance and pay in full, and ensure the basic life of the insured after retirement.

　

　　Maternity and medical insurance were merged and implemented.

　

　　[Change] In 2017, 12 cities including Handan City, Jinzhong City, Shenyang City, Taizhou City, Hefei City, Weihai City, Zhengzhou City, Yueyang City, Zhuhai City, Chongqing City, Neijiang City and Kunming City launched a pilot project for the merger of maternity insurance and employee basic medical insurance. The pilot will be launched before the end of June 2017, and the pilot period will be about one year.

　

　　[Impact] According to the requirements, maternity insurance and medical insurance are combined, and the maternity insurance benefits of employees during childbirth remain unchanged. Yang Yansui, director of Tsinghua University Employment and Social Security Research Center, said that because the reimbursement rate of medical insurance in some places has reached 80%-90%, and the reimbursement rate of maternity insurance is still below 70%, the maternity insurance benefits in these places may be improved after the merger.

　　Unemployment insurance rates are reduced and unemployment benefits are increased.

　

　　[Change] On the one hand, it is to reduce the payment rate. From January 1, 2017, provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) with a total unemployment insurance rate of 1.5% can reduce the total rate to 1%, and the period for reducing the rate will be implemented until April 30, 2018. On the other hand, it is to raise the unemployment insurance standard. According to the Guiding Opinions on Adjusting the Unemployment Insurance Standard issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Finance, the unemployment insurance standard will be gradually raised to 90% of the minimum wage standard.

　

　　[Impact] Unemployment insurance is jointly paid by the unit and employees. With the reduction of the rate, the burden on enterprises will be further reduced, and the wages of employees may increase more or less. The unemployment benefit standard has been raised to 90% of the minimum wage standard, and the life of the unemployed is more secure.

　

　　Enterprise employees can apply for skills upgrading subsidies.

　

　　[Change] An important function of unemployment insurance is to stabilize employment and prevent unemployment. In 2017, unemployment insurance ushered in a new policy, and eligible employees can apply for a large number of skills upgrading subsidies. The first application condition is to participate in unemployment insurance according to law and pay unemployment insurance premiums for more than 36 months (including 36 months); The second is to obtain primary (level 5), intermediate (level 4) and advanced (level 3) vocational qualification certificates or vocational skill level certificates from January 1, 2017.

　

　　[Impact] The person in charge of the unemployment insurance department of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said that this mobilized the enthusiasm of employees to learn vocational skills to a certain extent, which was conducive to stabilizing employment and preventing unemployment. According to estimates, about 2 million employees will benefit every year.

　　It is planned to pay pension and medical insurance for the unemployed.

　

　　[Change] In November 2017, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security publicly solicited opinions on the Unemployment Insurance Regulations (Revised Draft for Comment). Compared with the current regulations, in the opinion draft, the basic old-age insurance premium, vocational skill appraisal subsidy and entrepreneurship subsidy for the unemployed are added, and the medical subsidy is adjusted to pay the basic medical insurance premium.

　

　　[Impact] The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security pointed out that the payment of basic old-age insurance premiums has solved the problem of the interruption of the payment of old-age insurance for the unemployed and relieved the worries of the unemployed. Paying the basic medical insurance premium ensures that the unemployed enjoy medical insurance benefits, and solves the problem of "getting medical care for the sick" during the period when the unemployed receive the payment.

　

　　Industrial injury insurance benefits are adjusted at least once every two years.

　

　　[Changes] In July 2017, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security issued the "Guiding Opinions on the Adjustment and Determination Mechanism of Work-related Injury Insurance Benefits", clarifying that in principle, work-related injury insurance benefits should be adjusted at least once every two years.

　

　　[Impact] From the outside world, with the development of economy and society, the average wage and living expenses of employees have changed. Adjusting the treatment level of industrial injury insurance in a timely manner is not only the inherent requirement of the industrial injury insurance system, but also the proper meaning of protecting the rights and interests of the insured.

　　A few days ago, the Ministry of Public Security announced that the crime of abducting and manipulating deaf people in 13 provinces involved was successfully solved. The public security organs of 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, including Sichuan, Chongqing, Jilin, Gansu and Liaoning, have carried out special centralized network-closing operations. Up to now, 464 suspects have been arrested, 75 criminal gangs have been destroyed, 98 abducted deaf-mute people have been rescued, and 859 illegal and criminal cases have been cracked.

　　In November last year, the public security organs in Changchun City, Jilin Province found in their work that criminal gangs led by Yang Jun abducted and manipulated deaf people to engage in illegal and criminal activities, and committed crimes in a wide area and involved many people. Under the coordination and command of the Ministry of Public Security, the Sichuan Provincial Public Security Department immediately set up a task force to arrest the people involved in the case in China, and Yang Jun, the main suspect of the gang, was arrested in Mianyang.

　　A few days ago, a reporter from Huaxi Dushi Bao met Yang Jun, who was detained in Mianyang Detention Center. This young man in his twenties looked very sunny. Through the on-the-spot communication with the sign language teacher, he told the story of his crime of abducting and manipulating the deaf after dropping out of college.

　　Deaf-mute college students drop out of school and use QQ group to form pickpockets.

　　On October 12th, Yang Jun, dressed in prison uniform, kept gesturing to reporters with sign language in Mianyang Detention Center, telling her experiences for so many years. According to Yang Jun, he used to be a deaf-mute student in a university in Chongqing. Because of his small circle of communication, he was afraid that he would not find a job in the future, so he dropped out of school and returned to Chengdu to start a street pickpocketing career. Yang Jun, who is physically strong and influential among the disabled pickpockets with him, was recommended as the leader. In 2014, Yang Jun and another partner, Yang Ning, who is also deaf and dumb, and Wang Qiang, a normal person, came up with the idea of forming a team to steal.

　　In order to strengthen their own team, Yang Jun and others used QQ group to release information to the deaf-mute disabled people in the group, saying that they could help introduce their work and get to know more disabled people and their partners through this group.

　　Yang Jun’s girlfriend Xue Yu met through QQ group. At the beginning of 2012, Xue Yu, a minor, found Yang Jun with a try attitude. At the beginning, because Xue Yu was young, when Yang Jun gang members stole, Xue Yu covered the periphery. "Our group can steal hundreds of dollars every day, but we have to hand them in for distribution." Xue Yu said that she made little contribution at that time and earned very little money.

　　Later, Xue Yucheng became Yang Jun’s girlfriend, so Yang Jun stopped letting her steal, and was responsible for keeping the money handed in by small gangs every day. According to Xue Yu, after becoming boyfriend and girlfriend with Yang Jun, Yang Jun took her to drive around and bought her many luxuries such as mink coats and LV bags.

　　Looking for a job, looking for a partner, these tempting information, let many deaf-mute people focus on it and join the gang of Yang Jun and others. "When we invite these disabled people, we always give them tickets first, and then give them tickets when they are satisfied ‘ Work ’ 。” Yang Junyong gestured in sign language.

　　Unified rental management "performance" is sent to other provinces

　　After these deaf-mute disabled people were deceived together, Yang Jun took away their ID cards and disability certificates, rented houses for them in a unified way, managed them in a unified way, and conducted training. After the training is completed, these people will be sent to stations, squares and other intensive places to steal, and the profits will be divided according to "performance".

　　Yang Jun said that Yang Ning, the fat man, was responsible for arranging the theft of their gang, and the person in charge of the area was appointed first, followed by the group leader. The pickpocketing team is a combination of old and new. One of them steals, the other covers, and the new recruits are led by the small leader, who learns pickpocketing experience while covering the periphery. "The people sent out depend on their luck. At most, a group can earn 2,000 yuan at a time."

　　Yang Jun and others, in the manipulation of gangs, also assigned experienced personnel to other places to steal, and then introduced foreign personnel to the local area. "It’s easy to manage and make them rely on us." Yang Jun said that those who failed to get the money for a long time would be kicked out of the team. According to Yang Jun’s account, this pickpocket gang has been growing and finally developed into a pickpocket gang for the deaf and dumb across 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, with more than 400 main members. There are more than 20 people just following Yang Jun, and their daily income is considerable.

　　Members are often threatened to "cut their throats" if they don’t listen.

　　Zhao Li, a 21-year-old from Shaanxi, is also a member of this gang. She got married in her hometown and gave birth to a healthy baby. A few years ago, Zhao Li, who had nothing to do at home, listened to a friend’s introduction and joined this criminal gang to take charge of the outer cover. And her superior Gao Cheng is the head of Yang Jun sent to other places. At the beginning of this year, Zhao Li’s son fell ill and was hospitalized. His parents told her about his illness through WeChat, and asked her to go home and visit him.

　　Zhao Li told Gao Cheng, her head, the idea of going home, but Hu Zi, another member of the gang, refused to return her ID card and disability certificate to Zhao Li. "Without these things, I can’t even go home to buy a ticket."

　　Zhao Li begged several times before he got his certificate. After going home to visit her children and parents, she quickly ran out of money and joined the pickpocket gang again. In September this year, when she committed a crime with gang members in Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province, she was arrested by the local police.

　　According to Zhao Li, front-line personnel like her are often threatened by the people above, and when their performance is not satisfactory, they can’t have a full meal. For deaf people who want to escape, the backbone of the gang will be beaten by threats of violence. "They often use gestures such as cutting their throats to threaten deaf people who are disobedient." Zhao Li said that compared with the physical trauma, the psychological damage of the deaf-mutes who were cheated into the partnership was particularly serious.

　　Being escorted to Mianyang Detention Center, Zhao Li shed tears when he was interrogated by the police. She gestured with her hand that she missed her children and her parents. If she could go back in time, she would never do pickpocketing again.

　　The police jointly collected the net and found LV handbags and other items.

　　In November last year, the public security organs in Changchun City, Jilin Province found in their work that criminal gangs led by Yang Jun abducted and manipulated deaf people to engage in illegal and criminal activities, and committed crimes in a wide area and involved many people. After the case was reported, the Ministry of Public Security attached great importance to it, set up a task force to investigate the case, and deployed public security organs in 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, including Sichuan and Jilin, to carry out their work along the line. With the deepening of investigation, the public security organs have gradually sorted out the activity tracks and laws of several criminal gangs and mastered the relevant criminal facts.

　　After the network was closed, the arresting group found that these people had strong anti-detection ability because of various trainings. "Once they find something unusual, they will immediately transfer. Many old policemen in the detachment have been discovered by them several times." Chen Feihu, a policeman from the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Mianyang Public Security Bureau, said.

　　As the leader of the gang, Yang Jun was ready to escape at this time. On October 7th, when Yang Jun and others packed expensive items such as LV handbags and prepared to escape, they were stopped by the task force. In the rental house in Yang Jun, the police found LV handbags, mink coats and other items, as well as car tools ready to escape.

　　Suspect confessed

　　Novices in each group every day.

　　Steal 2000 to 3000 yuan

　　With the continuous arrest of the core members of the gang, the organizational structure of this criminal gang and the means of violent control of deaf-mute people have gradually surfaced.

　　"Novices need to steal from 2,000 yuan to 3,000 yuan per group every day, while skilled thieves have a daily goal of 10,000 yuan. If they fail to achieve their goals, they will have to beat and scold. Only by stealing enough indicators and stealing more can you have a good meal and see meat. " Thinking of that unforgettable past, Pang Mou, the abducted disabled person, burst into tears.

　　In the previous investigation, the public security organs found that the gang was closely organized and had a clear division of labor, and it was managed by a special person from top to bottom. "The gang level is clear, the gang leader can fly by plane and high-speed rail, and others can only travel by train. Deaf-mute people will be taken away by the backbone and leader of the gang every day, and they can’t leave a penny. " Wang Wantao, political commissar of Mianyang Criminal Investigation Detachment, said.

　　Dialogue with Yang

　　Worried about being eliminated by society

　　Finally took a detour.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao: Why did you go from stealing to abducting and manipulating deaf people?

　　Yang Jun: I am a deaf-mute disabled person. I seldom communicate with normal people at ordinary times, and the sign language of deaf-mute people can’t be understood by outsiders. It is these reasons that make me think that I will be eliminated by society and finally embark on the road of pickpocketing. In the process of stealing, I often encounter being beaten, being discriminated against by normal people, and my reputation in the circle has become bigger, so I began to recruit deaf-mute disabled people to steal.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao: You are a disabled person, and you recruited disabled people. Why do you want to exploit them?

　　Yang Jun: We need money to rent them a house and provide them with training. Therefore, every time they steal, we will ask them to pay a certain percentage.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao: Disabled people deserve sympathy, but you use them as a tool to collect money. Have you ever felt guilty about doing so?

　　Yang Jun: After several days of introspection, I also realized my mistakes. Disabled people need care from all walks of life, but I took them astray when they needed care most. They were rescued this time, and I hope they can get out of the shadows.
