On Nov 21, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang met with the Chinese delegation to the 44th WorldSkills Competition, held in October in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, and learned about their experiences.
Song Biao, 19, from Changzhou Technician College, was among the team.
China's young, skilled generation carries with it the huge responsibility of shouldering the country's economic transition, which lies in fully implementing an innovation-driven development strategy and further boosting mass entrepreneurship, Li said, and he called for further improvements in existing policies to enhance training of skilled workers.
This year's Chinese delegation of 52 competitors, ranging from 18 to 21 years old, led the gold medal count at the 44th WorldSkills Competition, which closed on Oct 19. They participated in 47 disciplines and won 15 gold medals, seven silver medals and eight bronze medals, marking the best performance by a Chinese delegation in the competition since it joined WorldSkills in 2010. This is the fourth time China has participated in the competition.
Several competitors who won gold medals－in disciplines including car painting, bricklaying and mechanical troubleshooting－told Li about their experiences.
"We feel we are strongly backed by the country's policy in recent years of encouraging the training of skilled workers and innovation, especially since more teachers have been hired at our college and learning facilities have been improving," said Song Biao19, from Changzhou Technician College.
