Over the past few years, the Government has considered various options and initiated several significant measures. In 2009 the authorities established a national framework for rural pensions, the Rural Pension Pilot Program (RPPP) and in 2011 a Pilot Social Pension Insurance for Urban Residents announced. In this process, it has articulated principles for a reformed urban pension system (indicated by 12 Chinese characters ) which are \"broad coverage, protects at the basic level, is multi-layered, and sustainable\" while the principles for the rural system (indicated by 12 characters ) are \"broad coverage, protects at the basic level, flexible, and sustainable.\" These principles underpin the commitments made at the 17th Party Congress towards a comprehensive and integrated social security system by 2020.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark C.
