Hefei (CNS) -- China's big labor exporter Anhui Province saw a recent tide of returning rural migrant workers from developed regions, according to a report by the Anhui office of the National Bureau of Statistics, on October 17.
The number of rural workers staying inside the province accounts for 22.9% of its total migrant workforce, up 1.5 percentage points from last year, thanks to the growing labor demands and booming economy within the province.
In rural areas of Fuyang, one of the five main labor exporters in China with about two million migrant workers every year, a type of family-based micro enterprise funded by returned workers has begun to expand rapidly
The report was made by surveying 3,100 rural households in the province. During the second quarter of 2011, the number of non-farm migrant workers is still growing, with the average monthly salary of rural workers exceeding 2,000 yuan. Eastern developed cities such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai in the Yangtze River Delta still attract more and more Anhui workers.
