    Modern problems require modern solutions. They deleted the data. Now unemployment disappeared. Also the people who posted the data.

      Sweden has a slightly higher youth unemployment rate and they are only counting the actual labour force, i.e. people actively willing to work and not students.

      I think it’s a bit silly to suggest that the Chinese government killed a bunch of statisticians at the National Bureau of Statistics for publishing this data that’s actually not as bad as you might in English language news sources.

        That was a joke. I know China is not exactly like what the english news channel portrays.
