CHINA-ECONOMY
A group of office workers laugh as they WALK past a billboard promoting hair styles in Shanghai, 09 February 2006. Minimum incomes in China will average 15,000 dollars a year by 2050, lifting wages about 30-fold in rural areas and virtually eradicating poverty, a government-linked academic group has forecast. The lengthy study unveiled this week by the Chinese Academy of Sciences predicted the country-s minimum wage would average 1,300 dollars a month, meaning that abject poverty would have been eradicated. The current average national income is just over 1,000 yuan a month, according to national statistics. Incomes for the near 800 million people living in the rural areas are much less.
