Growing mobility brings challenges

Report: Authorities should pay more attention to needs of cities' ethnic minority populations

China's urbanization process has boosted population mobility among ethnic minorities in big cities, posing new challenges to government management, according to a report published on Tuesday.

Since 2010, the population of ethnic minorities - members of the 55 non-Han ethnic groups - in cities such as Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Ningbo and Beijing had grown by an annual average of 20 percent, according to the 2015 Annual Report on the Development of Ethnic Affairs in China.
