Most,if not all,Chinese are financially better off thanks to over 30 years of reform and opening up. But are we any happier?

Various surveys and rankings attempt to answer this question.

Though sociologists have presented varying percentages based on different criteria,their answers tend to find we are generally happier,and the number of optimists rises each year.

But each survey reveals a worrisome fact that a sizable portion,10 percent at the lowest,of respondents were not content with their lives or not hopeful about the future.

We cannot be content with the fact that at least 130 million of our countrymen are not happy.

Although a sense of happiness remains a luxury for many of our compatriots because of poverty,we agree financial wellbeing is not the sole determinant of happiness.

For most of us,except the extremely rich and naturally born optimists,there simply are too many variables that may kill the feeling of happiness.

These include,but are not limited to,rising housing prices,tight and instable job market,backbreaking schooling expenses and medical bills.

The most common one,however,is a low sense of security.

An eyecatching characteristic of our economy is its high savings rate,at 46 percent now.

Explaining the rise in savings and drop in spending in their city,Beijing municipal statisticians pointed that in the low-and-middle-income group there was too much uncertainty regarding employment,income,housing,medical situations,and education.

How can you feel happy when you always have to brace ( = prepare) yourself for the unexpected?

It may be beyond the government's reach,to guarantee higher income for every citizen. But it does have a burden to create an environment where all citizens can feel a reasonable level of security.

There was an inclusive '* safety network" when the government encouraged officials to leave public offices in 1980s in attempts to downsize public service. The idea was to offer officials secure pay and benefits so they would not have to worry about guarantees after their departure from positions of power.

It is time the government displayed similar creativity and resolve to address a much larger sense of uncertainty.
