Third, Hohhot has ensured basic living needs in education, healthcare and social security. Pushing ahead with all-around efforts to strengthen weak areas like educational resources and facilities, the city has given local people access to equitable and quality education. 

Continual progress has been made in building a Healthy Hohhot. Advances in a hierarchical medical system and modern hospital management system have occurred.

More funding was provided for basic social security. Government subsidies for basic health insurance for rural and nonworking urban residents were increased from 280 to 450 yuan per person per annum. And full coverage under the serious disease insurance scheme was achieved.

Fourth, Hohhot took comprehensive measures to crack down on drugs, gambling and other violations, effectively safeguarding public security.
