Reference News Network, February 17**, according to the Latin American News Agency on February 15**, although China is in the Spring Festival holiday, the country's footsteps to the outside world have not stopped.

According to official data, since January this year, the largest terminal at Yangshan Port in eastern China has handled more than 850,000 TEUs, a record high for the same period in history. Compared with the same period last year, the loading and unloading volume of Shengdong Terminal in Yangshan Port increased by 15% to 20%.

At the same time, during the Spring Festival this year, the "Yixinou" train departing from Yiwu City, Zhejiang Province, shipped all kinds of Chinese products to more than 50 countries and more than 160 cities with a frequency of 8 trains per day. During the Spring Festival, an average of 30 China-Europe trains depart from China to the world every day.

According to the report, the realization of this international ** flow scale is largely due to the construction of overseas warehouses, which can be used to quickly deliver goods.

Analysts pointed out that the construction of new foreign trade infrastructure such as overseas warehouses has opened up the "last mile" of cross-border e-commerce and provided a more convenient shopping experience for overseas users.

According to **, an overseas warehouse in New Jersey, USA, has just received a batch of furniture containers from Guangdong Province, China, during the Spring Festival. The warehouse has a wide range of product delivery, so consumers can receive the goods on the same day or the next day as soon as they place an order on the e-commerce platform.

According to Hong Kong's "South China Morning Post" **February 15**, when the Lunar New Year holiday is not over, Shanghai will arrange various means of transportation to pick up workers from other provinces and cities to Shanghai, hoping to maintain uninterrupted production and start economic growth momentum as soon as possible.

According to Yicai, on the fourth day of the Spring Festival holiday, more than 30 migrant workers arrived in Shanghai from Yunnan on a "point-to-point" charter flight.

According to reports, more than 20 batches of "point-to-point" charter flights, special trains and chartered buses will be followed to bring more workers from other provinces and cities to Shanghai.

According to the report, in December last year, the human resources and social security departments at all levels in Shanghai launched a recruitment action and negotiated with some local ** in some major labor-exporting provinces to rent transportation to pick up migrant workers to return to work.

Yang Jiaying, director of the Shanghai Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, said: "We have found that many workers will go out in advance to find jobs, some front-line positions in enterprises will also face temporary shortages, and some workers will return to Shanghai during the Spring Festival to work in more in-demand jobs such as housekeeping and catering." ”

According to reports, Shanghai has continued its usual practice of ensuring sufficient labor during the holidays, but this year's "point-to-point" return to work service has been further advanced, and the batch is also more than in previous years, in order to better meet the employment needs of workers and enterprises.

According to the report, China is trying to fill the labor gap that occurred during the Spring Festival holiday, trying to maintain normal production activities, so as to support market confidence with solid first-quarter economic data.

Analysts say more provinces could see a surge in workers in the next quarter.

Peng Peng, executive director of the Guangdong Provincial Institute for Institutional Reform, said that this year, the influx of workers from all over China is very obvious, especially in the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions. These important manufacturing hubs are competing fiercely to attract labor resources.

Peng Peng believes that the performance of the job market in the second quarter of this year should be strong**.

Coupled with factors such as the gradual weakening of the impact of holidays on production, he said, China's labor market will have a relatively strong performance.

In order to ensure economic growth, coastal provinces have taken steps to ensure the stability of industrial production, the report said.

According to reports, more than 3,000 recruitment events will be held in the eastern province of Jiangsu between the Chinese New Year and April 8, providing more than 1 million jobs, as well as jobs and skills training opportunities for older workers.

Dongguan City, Guangdong province, also announced that it would give subsidies of up to 600,000 yuan to industrial enterprises above designated size that meet the "conditions for maintaining continuous production" in February. (Compiled by Li Fengqin, Han Chao).
