Hubei immigrants get rich proposal

Whose heart was hurt by the salary increase of civil servants? (Source: Northeast News Network)

A proposal to raise the salary of civil servants, "more than 20 thousand netizens followed the post." Before the two sessions opened, He Xiangjiu became a "hot person" and there was a buzz on the Internet. "These two days, I got a lot of scold. Some netizens even said that the thugs in Kunming should cut me first. In fact, they misunderstood. " He Xiangjiu, who was "awakened" by netizens, was very sad. ("Beijing News" March 5)

He Xiangjiu is not the only one who appeals for a salary increase for civil servants, especially grass-roots civil servants. He Xiangjiu's suggestion is about paying attention to the wages of ordinary civil servants working at the grassroots level and gradually increasing their wages. There is no substantial increase, and there is no general talk of giving all civil servants a salary increase. At that time, the media reports did not mention grass-roots civil servants, but added a "substance", which easily caused emotional opposition and caused the opinions of some netizens. He Xiangjiu was scolded and sad. I'm afraid He Xiangjiu is not the only one who is sad.

Objectively speaking, compared with most enterprise employees, the salary of civil servants is really not high. According to statistics, the structural salary system for civil servants was implemented on July, 2006 1, and it has been 8 years since then. Take a department-level cadre (level 12) as an example, his level salary increased by about 37.2%, with an average annual increase of 4.7%, while China's GDP increased by 74.8% in the same period. According to the data published by the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2006, the average annual income of urban workers in China was 2 100 1 yuan. Last year, this figure was 47,593 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 127% and an average annual increase of 15.8%, far exceeding the salary increase of civil servants.
