摘要：In 2005, the number of employed
persons increased by 1.3 per cent, moderating
from the previous year. Employment in the
agricultural sector continued to decline from
2004, falling by 0.7 per cent on account of
drought and crossover into non-agricultural
sectors. Nevertheless, as economic growth
slowed down, non-agricultural employment
growth dropped to 2.6 per cent from 6.0 per
cent in 2004, with the growth slowdown
observed in all major non-agricultural sectors.
