Second skills competition to be held in Tianjin

China will hold its second nationwide skills competition in September in Tianjin, according to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.

The biennial competition was first put on by the ministry in Guangzhou, South China's Guangdong province, in 2020. The competition in Tianjin, which was supposed to take place last year, was postponed due to the COVID-19 epidemic.

Organizers of the Tianjin event said that it will be a skills gala. It will include more competitive matches and operate with stricter standards.

They said that the competition will contribute to the nation's development of its skilled talent.
