23 Million Chinese Youths Cry, Earning $100/Month, Many Facing Lying Flat or Homelessness

The grim job market has forced many graduates, both undergraduates and postgraduates, into unemployment or low-paying jobs like food delivery. Statistics show that in the first half of 2023, the number of active food delivery riders on various platforms reached 40 million, more than half of whom are recent college graduates. China’s youth unemployment rate has hit a record high, and competition for jobs has become more intense. Many young people who have come to big cities but have been unable to find a job have to accept low wages that are disproportionate to their professional abilities and endure workplace bullying in order to survive. A large number of young people are on the verge of anxiety and collapse. #chinayouths #young #chinaeconomy #chinaobserver All rights reserved.
