Hey there, amigos! 🎉
Guess what? As China marks its 40th Teachers' Day this Tuesday, President Xi Jinping sent warm greetings to all the amazing teachers and education workers across the country. 📚🍎
At a national education meeting in Beijing that wrapped up on Tuesday, President Xi, who's not just the president but also the general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission (yeah, he's a busy guy!), shared some heartfelt words.
He emphasized how crucial it is to boost teachers' paychecks 💰, especially for those in primary and middle schools. He talked about raising allowances based on their years of experience, making sure rural teachers get better cost-of-living subsidies, and reforming how college teachers are paid. Basically, he's all about making sure teachers get the respect — and the cash — they deserve! 🤑
\"Respecting teachers and valuing education is a proud tradition of the Chinese nation,\" President Xi said. He called for protecting teachers' professional dignity and rights, and reducing their non-teaching workloads. Because let's face it, teachers already have a lot on their plates! 🍽️
He also highlighted the need to help teachers gain high social prestige and make teaching one of the most respectable jobs out there. 🙌
Pretty inspiring, right? It's awesome to see educators getting the shout-out they deserve. Here's to all the teachers making a difference every day! 🎓❤️
