As Spring Festival approaches, Guangzhou South Railway Station in the capital of Guangdong province was bustling with crowds of passengers waiting for trains on Friday to return home.
A ticket-free special high-speed train bound for Bijie, Guizhou province, departed on schedule from the station, carrying migrant workers returning home for the Spring Festival holiday.
Organizing the special trains was part of the joint efforts by the labor departments of Guangdong and Guizhou provinces to provide efficient services for migrant workers, helping more labor forces from Guizhou to move to Guangdong for stable employment.
