Public Opinion on Quarantine Allegations Caused a Might among Chongqing Officials: Economy is Collapsing | Chongqing Changshou District | Zhenxiong County, Yunnan | Economic collapse

[The Epoch Times, 23 settembre 2022]Recently,Changshou District, ChongqingAndZhenxiong County, YunnanSeparately issued documents claiming that centralized isolation places have begun to implement tariff management and Chongqing officials reported local “economic collapse”. Since the outbreak of the outbreak in the mainland, local governments’ epidemic prevention policies have emerged one after another, provoking dissatisfaction and complaints from netizens.

according toChangshou District, ChongqingDocuments released on Tuesday (20) by the New Crown Epidemic Prevention Leading Group show that local officials have implemented the mandatory enforcement since Wednesday (21).segregation tax. Those who are forcibly quarantined at the quarantine points of public rental housing pay around 300 yuan per day for room and board. Those who are quarantined in hotels will have to pay the resulting room and board costs.

In response to an interview with Radio Free Asia, the Changshou District Government Administrative Center confirmed the incident and said there are strict local inspections. But they refused to explain the reason for the mandatory tariff rules.

Chongqing officials explained: The economy collapsed due to large cuts in officials’ salaries

A division-level official in charge of the Chongqing market, who requested anonymity, told Radio Free Asia that the previously charged quarantine was mainly for people returning from abroad. But now around the world there is an open and hidden push for the segregation of charges: on the one hand, the government is really penniless and on the other hand it wants to discourage the flow of people and reduce the pressure to compensate.

“Because they are concerned that once a large-scale infection occurs, top local officials may have an accident.” But the official also said that this kind of strict control has actually reduced the flow of people, but the damage to the economy has become increasingly severe.

Taking his own jurisdiction as an example, the official said that only in the first half of this year, this area, which is located in the central business district of Chongqing, experienced a severe wave of bankruptcy and flight. The direct feedback to the system is that civil servants and public institutions have drastically reduced their salaries.

He revealed that many young people and low-level people in his unit are already in a difficult situation. And the situation for most of the lower-tier workers is even more unsustainable.

He said: “The epidemic is very serious now and the economy is collapsing, because all parts of the country are blocking it. All kinds of information has emerged this year and the information is very bad. Because now I am in charge. of the complaints and reports, and there are many people running away. A lot, especially this year, there are many failures and all walks of life are running away. It has increased three or four times compared to before the epidemic. “

He also said that salaries in this system are decreasing: “They are now at the division level and the salary hasn’t gone down much. Our senior and sub-department levels have gone down a lot, by two-thirds.”

The official also pointed out that, as a frontline manager, they understand the real situation, but their suggestions in practice are not heeded and even talking about it among themselves will be warned. He believes, “Chongqing’s senior officials also understand the situation, but they don’t dare to offend the people above, so the whole system is full of understanding and pretends to be confused.”

However, the Chongqing Municipal Government and the Municipal Epidemic Prevention Headquarters did not respond to this statement.

Netizens complained: Shouldn’t we worry about doing business through isolation?

Since the beginning of this year, the CCP has adopted an extreme “zero policy”. Recently, the PCC has vigorously promoted the normalization of nucleic acid tests. More than 10 cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Taiyuan have implemented measures to normalize nucleic acid testing, causing continued secondary disasters.

Regarding the new official approach, some netizens said: “Not just the 18 cities of Yunnan Countysegregation taxChongqing, a municipality directly under the central government, has also started charging. Will this become a demonstration everywhere to be followed? “I’m really short of money.”

“Some say that the government’s human, material and financial resources are shrinking due to the long-term fight against the epidemic and isolation should be charged. Then I want to ask, three years after the epidemic, ordinary people have actively collaborated with the fight against the epidemic and money is becoming more and more difficult to earn, so we shouldn’t worry about it? ” Weibo Big V said: “That’s when I screamed.”

“The centralized isolation point has to charge such a high fee, why not just take it? If you refuse to pay, you will be handed over to public security to be held accountable. Wouldn’t it be better to arrest it and isolate it? … If the interested parties don’t. they are good at preventing the epidemic, that it is unacceptable that ordinary people spend money on isolation! “

Weibo big V “Wang vivi Weiwei” said: “Have everyone started introducing ‘compulsory isolation, one-click charge’ packages? The locals don’t want to use it to generate revenue. You can see that the government is out of money, but people just don’t. Money! … Isolation charges, nucleic acid has an allied army. “

Weibo V “Ye Aimao” said: “Isolation costs 100 to 300 yuan, and I ask netizens in a low voice, are you financially overwhelmed or do you want to turn isolation into a bargain?”

Weibo big V “An Xiaoluo” laughed: “I’m afraid? I’m afraid, what should I do in the future? The kind of family that can’t afford to be taken into solitary confinement, everything beyond the place will be violated!”

Some netizens believe the relevant practice has also led officials to turn forced solitary confinement into a tool for cutting leeks and generating corruption.
