Are resident cadres civil servants?

Village cadres are not appointed by superiors, nor civil servants, nor are they included in the state administration or career establishment, but leaders and managers elected by villagers. For a long time, it has been inconclusive whether village cadres are public officials, which has become an obstacle in the work of many village cadres, and the supervision and punishment of village cadres have also been restricted to a certain extent.

Resident cadres refer to those who are sent to administrative villages or natural villages by units above the village level to help them. Village cadres should be propagandists of principles and policies. Village cadres should go deep into farmers' homes, talk face to face with the masses, train the masses in relevant business knowledge and preach relevant laws and regulations in rural areas, so that the masses can truly feel the care of the party and the government.
