Of these, 172,000 were implemented for social security in key waters. It represents 99.9% of the number of people who should be included in social security, and 129,000 people have converted to employment, which represents 99.1% of the number of people who need to be converted. At the same time, it actively helps fishermen to solve the practical difficulties of going to school, seeing the doctor and housing, to ensure that there is an outlet for landing, an outlet for employment and a life guarantee.
