Indeed, possibly
too much mining. Dutch disease, you know.
But yes, plenty of fishing (we have enormous oceanic claims) and so far, lots of forestry. We've almost finished chopping everything down [proud smile].
IIRC the most dangerous job is farmer. Professional fishers do okay; recreational fishers get into trouble.
Chinese coal mining is notorious - literally thousands of deaths per year. So much for the workers paradise.
