Chinese wages grew by double digits in 2010, from the previous year. That's according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
The data authority says the average salary at China's urban private companies reached nearly 21 thousand yuan. That represents a 14.1 percent increase from 2009. It's also more than double the growth rate of 6.6 percent registered in the previous year.
Wages in the urban non-private sector climbed 13.5 percent, to more than 37 thousand yuan. That's in line with the previous year's growth rate. The non-private sector comprises government agencies, State-owned enterprises, listed companies and foreign invested companies.
