Modern problems require modern solutions. They deleted the data. Now unemployment disappeared. Also the people who posted the data.
Nooo they wouldn’t do that¡ Didn’t people say here that the numbers are western fabrications
The new numbers will be the best numbers ever
Literally 1984 (no really, that’s in the book)
Ministry of Truth has the best numbers
They should just do the same as Hungary: only count the “jobseekers”, and disregard people from that list if they can’t secure a job for too long. (Did happen to me in Hungary, except I was registered as a participant of the government humiliating “public employment” program, except I neither got the 8 hour job, nor the half the minimum wage.)
Hey come to Australia, you’re qualified to be given the same shit show here as well.
Oh and can’t forget some good ol’ disregard for the underemployed.
And they outsourced the employment offices, so all these dodgy companies get massive grants to help you look for work, which they don’t. As soon as you find work, entirely on your own effort, time, and money, they ring you and ask for details so they can claim they did it to secure some shitty bonus no doubt.
Sounds like the youth in Australia should start private unemployment offices…
Jokes aside, it’s sort of amazing how fucked Gen Z is across the globe in every aspect of their lives if they don’t have generational wealth to live off of.
Employment, housing, climate, it’s affecting Gen Z in almost every “developed” country irrespective of their political structure or beliefs. Millennials already had it bad compared to previous generations, but Gen Z has it 100x worse.
That’s literally how the US does it. If you include all the people who gave up and left the workforce, as well as all the unhoused people who are also purposefully excluded from unemployment rolls, suddenly we don’t have the “record low unemployment” they keep claiming we have.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
BEIJING, Aug 15 (Reuters) - China’s statistics bureau said on Tuesday it had suspended publication of youth jobless data, citing the need to improve methodology in the way it measured unemployment among young people, which has hit record highs in recent months.
The decision announced shortly after the release of weaker-than-expected factory and retail sales data sparked a rare backlash on social media amid growing frustration about employment prospects in the country.
Young Chinese are facing their toughest summer job-hunting season after regulatory clamp-downs in recent years left traditional sources of graduate employment – including the property, tech and education sectors – bruised.
The most recent NBS data on youth unemployment, published last month, showed the jobless rate jumping to a record high of 21.3% in June.
The NBS’s decision was immediately mocked on Chinese social media, with a related hashtag receiving over 10 million views on microblogging site Weibo.
A Chinese professor last month said the country’s true youth jobless rate may have been closer to 50% in March, in rare public comments about the matter published in an article for financial magazine Caixin.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Turns out having dictators run your country is bad for the economy
I have a bunch of lemmygrad and hexbear accounts blocked so I can’t see the other replies to your comment but I bet it’s a whataboutism against the US, isn’t it?
Edit: lmao the downvotes tell me, yes, it’s just whataboutism against the US because that’s all they ever have to offer.
