Hu Yuting, Governor of Jilin Province, delivered the work report of the Jilin Provincial People's Government. The 12,000-word report serves as both an "action plan" for revitalization and a "pledge of happiness" that precisely addresses people's most pressing needs.

Ten "buzzwords" in the report capture the core of Jilin's development and the focus of people's livelihood, unveiling the answers to the future happiness of every Jilin resident.

From high to low, frequency directly correlates with priority.

● Development: The "source" for income growth

Development may seem distant, but the report makes a clear commitment: "Income growth for urban and rural residents must keep pace with economic growth." The steady rise in Jilin's GDP is more than just a number–it translates directly into higher incomes for farmers from grain sales, steadily growing wages for workers, and more opportunities for entrepreneurs. In simple terms, solid development in Jilin means tangible gains for all, and everyone will share in this "development dividend".

● Construction: The "action plan" for improving livelihoods

Construction is never merely about erecting buildings. It is about precisely solving real-life challenges. Over the past year, 1,002 dilapidated residential areas underwent renovation, cutting winter heating complaints by 58%. This year, 10 county-level comprehensive elderly care centers were built to provide aging parents with quality, worry-free care. Concurrently, rural tap water coverage reached 98.1%, ensuring clean water access for all village residents. Upgraded transportation networks and improved medical facilities are making life more convenient, directly boosting people's sense of happiness.

● Industry: A "reservoir" of employment opportunities

Industry is the "fundamental pillar" of employment. The government's work report outlines a strategic plan to expand job opportunities through key industrial growth: boosting new energy vehicle production by 15%, establishing the carbon fiber sector as a 100-billion-yuan industry, accelerating the development of the low-altitude economy and new pharmaceuticals, and targeting an output value of RMB 560 billion for the agricultural processing sector. Whether they are skilled workers, university graduates, or rural laborers, all can now find suitable career paths. Staying in the province to work and earn a stable income close to home is no longer a challenge.

● Growth: A "signal" indicating a better life

Growth, a visible trend of improvement, underpins the foundation of daily life. Key targets include around 5% growth in regional GDP, approximately 6% in industrial added value above the designated size, over 8% in new energy output value, and synchronized growth in resident income with the economy. From the "triple growth" in grain output to the surge in cultural and tourism spending, from rising corporate profits to expanded investments in social welfare, every "growth" statistic stands as robust proof of a thriving life and fuels our hope for an even brighter tomorrow.

● Enterprise: A "haven" for entrepreneurship and employment

Thriving enterprises ensure stable employment and a prosperous economy. The report delivers a "policy package" for businesses, including measures to: deepen the reform of state-owned enterprises to revitalize those at the provincial level, empower the private sector by providing tailored support for 100 firms with strong growth potential, and streamline the business environment via integrated "One-Stop Online Services" and "Unintrusive Regulation", ensuring that companies can invest and operate with confidence. The more robust an enterprise grows, the more jobs it can create and the broader the stage it offers for entrepreneurs. In such a favorable business environment, both employees and business owners can reap a sense of accomplishment.

● People's livelihood: A "warm response" to urgent needs

Livelihood issues are the report's true focus, supported by concrete measures: creating 210,000 urban jobs, retaining 170,000 university graduates in the province, eliminating zero-employment households, building 100 winter sports training facilities in schools, expanding social insurance coverage for non-traditional workers, strengthening long-term care insurance, and adding 2,000 inclusive elderly care beds. From employment and retirement to healthcare and public services, people can rely on robust institutional support, which enhances their overall sense of security.

● Reform: An "accelerator" for removing bottlenecks

Reform is the key to overcoming development challenges and improving efficiency. Reforms in the management of government funds, state-owned assets, and public resources have activated hundreds of billions of yuan in idle resources, while SOE reform has significantly increased returns on state capital. Tendering and procurement processes have been restructured to close institutional loopholes. Government service reforms are advancing contactless approvals and more efficient handling of complex matters through a single, streamlined process. General provincial expenditures have been reduced, allowing more funds to be directed toward people's livelihoods. Reforms have broken down barriers to development, streamlined administrative processes, and optimized resource allocation, making business operations smoother and daily life more convenient for the people.

● Innovation: "Black technology" for better living

Innovation is no longer confined to laboratories—it is entering everyday life. The Jilin-1 satellite constellation, consisting of 144 satellites, is enhancing digital services. Embodied intelligent robots are being introduced into hospitals and farms, making work more efficient and less labor-intensive. The low-altitude economy is enabling aerial logistics and tourism flights, offering more diverse travel experiences. Breakthroughs in key technologies are improving the precision of healthcare and the efficiency of agriculture, delivering the benefits of innovation directly to people's doorsteps.

● Ecology: A "safeguard" for a livable home

Jilin's ecological strengths are clearly visible. Days with good air quality account for 92.8% of the year, while 1,272 kilometers of green waterways link scenic landscapes. The ecological condition of Chagan Lake continues to improve. Crop straw is being converted into resources, abandoned mines are being restored, winters offer ice-and-snow recreation, and summers provide opportunities for camping and wellness tourism. Step outside, and nature is close at hand—lucid waters and lush mountains have become Jilin's most valuable and enduring assets.

● Agriculture: The "anchor" of food security

As a major agricultural province, agriculture affects every meal. Total grain output ranks fourth nationwide, achieving simultaneous growth in total output, yield per unit, and planting area. Mid- to high-end sales of "Jilin-branded" rice account for over 40%, while the full industrial chains of fresh corn and ginseng continue to grow—ensuring both food safety and higher incomes for farmers. High-standard farmland construction is advancing steadily, conservation tillage ranks first nationwide, and Jilin's black soil continues to improve in quality. Looking ahead, the dishes on dining tables will become more abundant and healthier—"Jilin flavor" is a flavor people can trust.

These 10 keywords are not isolated "buzzwords". Together, they form the core of this "commitment to happiness": using reform to remove obstacles, innovation to energize industries, construction to address livelihood gaps, agriculture to secure the nation's food supply, and ecology to protect a green homeland. All efforts ultimately point to one goal—ensuring fuller wallets, smoother work, and better lives for every resident of Jilin.
