LHASA -- Authorities in Southwest China's Tibet autonomous region have helped some 461,000 farmers and herdsmen find jobs so far this year, according to the regional department of human resources and social security.
The jobs have generated an income of 3.75 billion yuan (about $536 million) so far, the department said.
