The country is facing fresh problems brought by a new generation of migrant workers and it plans to help more farmers migrate to urban areas to close the widening income gap between villages and cities, officials said.

About 60 percent of China's 150 million migrant workers are aged 30 or younger, Tang Renjian, deputy director of the Central Rural Work Leading Group, told a press conference yesterday.

This group of laborers, born in the 1980s and 1990s, are "the new generation of migrant workers", he said.
