Bright outlook for graying population

Retirees at the Daimiao community in Shandong province approached NPC deputy Jin Lanying before she set off for Beijing early this month.

They urged Jin to increase their old-age insurance, which was adjusted by the level of the basic old-age pension in reference to the price index of living expenses for urban residents and employees' pay increases.

"In our community, an urban retired worker gets about 600 yuan a month," Jin said.
