At present, with the acceleration of the pace of reform and opening up, China has entered an important period of strategic opportunities for economic and social transformation, as well as the period of prominent contradictions. The gap between the rich and the poor is enlarged, and the number of social problems is increasing, which lead to the growing public demand for public services.
