These statistics were provided by UBS bank of Switzerland which sends 40,000of it employees to workoverseas every year and collects this information annually. Although teaching in China is still a fun and rewarding experience for most of us, FTs are still the lowest paid expats in China and the income gap is growing...
Other expats who hold non-teaching jobs in China earn an average of $39,345 dollars per year. But we probably have a lot more fun and less stress!
We will bepublishing our 2013 Annual Report on January 10th and the new CFTU Whitelist for 2014 will be coming out on the 15th of January. Best wishes to all!
