Despite local financial difficulties, several provinces like Sichuan, Jilin, and Guizhou increased salaries for government and public institution employees. For example, in Sichuan, salaries rose by an average of 500 yuan per month, while in Jilin, the increase was 400 to 500 yuan. This move prioritizes the wages of civil servants and full-funded public institution employees, while those in self-funded or partially funded institutions face delays, with some not receiving salaries for up to eight months.
