澳门第三届特区政府遵循民本原则，以改善民生为施政目标，在倾听与吸纳民意的基础上，形成以民生为本的政策导向，制订、延续或新推了多项民生福利政策，其中，既有对社会弱势群体的特别援助政策，也有普惠性的现金分享、税费减免及补贴政策，以及居住、教育、医疗与养老保障等政策。这些民生福利政策虽然总体上取得了良好的社会效应，但是，仍然需要以形成可持续的社会保障制度为目标进行完善。
In accordance with its livelihood-based principle, the third-term MSAR government seeks to implement policies that can improve people's livelihood and has developed corresponding policy directions upon listening to public opinion. It has established, maintained or launched a range of social welfare policies, including special policies aimed at assisting disadvantaged groups, the Wealth Partaking Scheme that benefits the general public, tax exemption and subsidies, as well as housing, educational, medical and pension security, etc. Although these livelihood-oriented welfare policies have generally received good social effects, they still need to be improved with the objective of establishing a sustainable social security system.
