Recent data and public sentiment suggest a discrepancy between the official portrayal of China's economy by the Chinese Communist Party and the actual economic experiences of many Chinese citizens. This divergence in perceptions appears to be intensifying. Amid what some are calling the most severe economic downturn in decades, there is a rising tide of concern, reflected in growing unemployment rates and an increasing number of citizens grappling with challenges like potential job losses, reduced incomes, and significant mortgage pressures.
According to a report by Nikkei Asia on August 28th, there's been a surge in workers' strikes and protests in China. Based on statistics from the non-governmental organization "China Labor Bulletin", 830 strikes and protests were recorded in 2022, and in the first half of 2023 alone, there were 741 incidents.
