Who told you this, you just dreamed it up by yourself?

CN PM told this, SCMP told this. U are just pathetic Cnese trying to ignore that truth

Stop saying 140 usd is disposable income. U just try to ignore the fact that poor CNese farmers don't even earn enough money for daily living.

-------------
China has over 600 million people whose monthly income is barely 1,000 yuan (USD 140) and their lives have further been affected by the coronavirus pandemic, Premier Li Keqiang said on Thursday.

------------
The official U.S. unemployment rate hit 14.7% in April, the highest level since data began in 1948. In May, employers added 2.5 million jobs—the most in a single month since 1948—and the unemployment rate fell to 13.3%. U.S. data don’t capture all of the people who are underemployed or who have given up looking for work.

But unlike China, the U.S. counts as unemployed some people not working any hours even while technically employed. The U.S. also has a wider array of monthly statistics than China does to reflect such people.

Chen Xingdong, a China economist at BNP Paribas, estimates that once everyone is factored in, as many as 132 million Chinese workers were at one point unemployed, temporarily displaced or furloughed this year—or about 30% of China’s urban workforce. He says it is fair to count displaced migrants as unemployed because farming isn’t really viable for many of them once they have ventured out into cities.

“From an economic point of view, I don’t think those people will work on the land,” Mr. Chen said. “I see them as having no income, no job.”

Feng Weibing, a 51-year-old who has been struggling to find work on interior-decoration projects in Beijing, agrees. While he has land in rural Jiangsu province, he said, “There is no way we can make a living as farmers.”

“The average cost for us in Jiangsu is around 100 yuan ($14) a day, but as a farmer, you can only earn about 60 yuan a day,” he said. He is sticking it out in Beijing, hoping conditions will improve.

As China’s employment situation deteriorated this year, Chinese officials provided a one-time set of figures on people who were employed but not really working, though they didn’t elaborate on how the information was gathered. The statistics bureau said 3.5% of people in cities were “employed but not working” in April, down from 18.3% in March.

First it's from years ago, second, he was talking about "disposable income", which in US it can be negative, because Americans don't save.

63% Of Americans Don't Have Enough Savings To Cover A $500 Emergency

It's not news that Americans are terrible at saving. We talk about it year after year after year. New to the 2016 conversation, though, is the fact that just 37% of Americans could pay for a $500 emergency using money from a savings account. The other two-thirds would have to resort to cutting...

Big ambition, best wishes.

VN control Laos and Cam's military-police forces now after we wiped out CN's allly Pol Pot in 1979

------------
Cambodia has been in turmoil for more than six centuries that are caused by Murderous Siamese and Yuonese Communist, Colonialist and Imperialist leaders. As we see clearly the unrest/turmoil has been taking place from 1970 until now. The coup d'etat in 1970, Lon Nol's dictatorial regime was toppled. On 17th April 1975, the Vietnamese soldiers were secretly disguised as Khmer Rouge Soldiers took over Phnom Penh by force. American Imperialists and her Allied ran away losing their underpants in Cambodia and Kampuchea Krom/Vietnam.

On 7th January 1979, the Hanoi Leaders sent their invasion troops to topple their comrade in arms Khmer Rouge and Pol Potists. In late 1991, after the signing Paris Peace Agreement was to bring Aides and so far many millions of illegal Vietnamese migrants and prostitutes into Cambodia. After the Fair and free elections of 1993 were monitored and supervised by UNTAC, Hun Sen knew that the UNTAC troops were going home. He wanted to share the powers with the Prince Ranariddh so he ordered his Tiger Soldiers and secret police to use the tanks against the results of elections, which were fairly and freely monitored and supervised by UNTAC. A grenade attack killed at least a dozen people in downtown of Phnom Penh before the bloodshed coup.

On 5-6 July 1997 of the brutal coup d'etat, was created by Hun Sen and his Tiger Soldiers to topple Prince Ranariddh and Funcinpec Party. There was much uncountable causality, and houses burned to ash. September 1998, there were hundreds of thousands of Cambodian peaceful and freedom-lover demonstrators were brutally crashed by Hun Sen's Tiger Soldiers and Hok Lundi's. Many of who were disappeared without a trace.

These tyrant couple Vietnamese/Cambodian,Vuth/Siv had assassinated more than thousand people including Funcipec and Son Sann officers. They had more power than any ministers. They can arrest any minister, including Prime Minister, on order of Hanoi. When they get in restaurant somewhere, ministers and generals should cede their places to theses two tyrants as they please. When Siv entered in a bar dancing, people inside the bar trembled and avoided eye contact with him. He abused waitresses in public. Sometimes, he came in the bar to arrest someone and slaughtered the arrested man not far away from Pochentong airport. A colonel Funcinpec arrived first at a very well known restaurant and ordered a famous special soup (special Samlor Ma Chou).

Vuth, the Vietnamese tank commander, hungry after a long journey, arrived at the restaurant after the colonel. But the Vietnamese commander, attracted by the smell, wanted that soup at once. The restaurant owner obliged to comply Vuth desire. Funcinpec colonel protested to the restaurant owner. One week later, the Funcinpec colonel disappeared silently, it was 1998."This proved again and again that Vietnam held Cambodia as her vassalage."

The Vietnamese tank commander, Vuth, played an important role in Hun Sen coup of July 5-6, 1997. It was he who destroyed Funcinpec general Serey Kosal and Nhek Bun Chhay troops during their escape to Thai border. Nhek Bun Chhay fled to Thai border with 800 soldiers. Only three dozens survived and arrived to Thailand.Vietnamese leaders were very smart in the betrayal strategy. They sent their agents to tell what Funcinpec and Son Sann party leaders would like to hear. They exploited the Funcinpec/Son Sann antipathy to the Vietnamese. They spread smear against the good and competent Cambodian nationalist leaders by accusing them as infiltrated Vietnamese agents. They also used the same tactic to eliminate the good Khmer Rouge cadres and the good Khmer leaders during Lon Nol and Sangkum Reastre Niyum era. Ranariddh's and Son Sann's generals were so naïve, they will fall into the Vietnamese game strategy. They were betrayed, then, deadly ambushed by Vietnamese troops commanded by Vuth. The Vietnamese general knew in advance Funcinpec and Son Sann escape route. Now, Ranariddh and Son Sann parties had generals, but no troop and no arms. So, they had no teeth, even to defend themselves. Hun Sen played fully all azimuths his strategy of National Union, National Army, National Police, the policy that is recommended by the international community. Hun Sen disarmed all factions but his own. The only one, who is armed from toes to head, is the Cambodian People Party (Cambodian Communist Party).

The only party, who had its own armed forces and his own police, is the communist party. National Army, National Police served just one purpose, legalize Communist Army and Communist Police to destroy opponent forces.

One individual's story means nothing, China still has many farmers, no of them are starving. poor families get free houses and money from the government.

If you have no income at all, in my city, you get 1100 yuan (200USD) per month from the government, houses will be provided by the government, 廉租房, you only need to pay a token rent. Different cities and provinces have different standard based largely on the local cost of living, for details, check the chart.

Welfare system, and 街道 （neighborhood committee）

中文名 最低生活保障制度 外文名 Subsistence Security System
2019年，我国城乡低保标准稳步提高。截至去年11月底，全国城市低保月人均标准为617元，农村低保年人均标准为5247元，同比分别增长7.4%和10.4%，累计支出低保金达1433.8亿元。

China has a very strange policy, every business has to pay taxes for "disabled people", but if your business hired one disable person, you don't have to pay this tax, if you hire more than one, you get handsome subsidies from the government, so all business are fighting for disabled people, a disabled person doesn't have to go to work, they just registered with several businesses showing they are employed by them, and get tens of thousands every month at home.

Many say the best meal ticket one can possibly get is 残疾人证 （government issued card for disabled people）

China first overtook US in the size of the middle class population in 2015 and McKinsey analysis predicts it could reach 550 million in three years — that’s more than one-and-a-half times the entire U.S. population today.

"The middle class in China now amounts to 109 million people, putting it ahead of the US – where they number 92 million - for the very first time, according to the Credit Suisse report, which equates middle-class wealth to holding assets (mostly financial and real estate) in the region of US$50,000 to US$500,000."
