According to Cai's sister Cai Hong, his monthly income as a security guard from year 2000 to his death was less than 1,000 yuan (US$120).
"While weightlifting, my brother did nothing but train every day," said his sad sister. "Knowing too little about the outside world made it hard for him to find a decent position after he retired from sports."
According to statistics, in 1989, 26.49 per cent of the total number of retired athletes were looking for jobs.
From 1993 to 1996, 26.53 per cent of the retired athletes in seven provinces, regions and cities, including Shanghai, Tianjin, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Guangxi and Shaanxi, had not found suitable jobs, which means that the stories of Liu and Cai are not isolated.
With the reform of China's labour and employment system intensifying, the reemployment problems of retired athletes will become more and more difficult, officials say.
