As an accountant in China, Ms Wei works in the finance sector where the government has been cutting and capping workers’ pay.
China’s financial sector is led by state-owned banks and institutions, which are ultimately controlled by the government.
Ms Wei’s monthly salary has been reduced from 6,000 yuan to 4,500 yuan and her year-end bonus slashed by more than half.
“They [the government] started to cut everyone’s salary last July. It’s a heavy blow to my life,” Ms Wei said.
You are confusing a wage slave with the industry she works for.
That’s like saying a janitor at bank is now part of the bank owner and operator class.
