C. Social Policies in a Changing Economic Climate

106. I have talked about the Government's economic measures as well as some short-term relief initiatives. Now, I will turn to our social policies. Our objective is to create an environment where everyone has the opportunity to fully develop their potential. Necessary support should be provided to those hardest hit by the rapid changes in circumstances, as well as to disadvantaged groups. Our aim is to help our people to enhance their ability to help themselves and to boost their will-power to do so.
