From the latest numbers released by the CCP Organization Department, only 6.5 million members were workers and 25.8 million agricultural workers – compared to the majority of 41 million professional collars and 19 million retired cadres.
Another thing that doesn’t want to be discussed is how funded.
The budget has never been published, while the personal wealth of its leaders is a very sensitive topic.
CCP members contribute 2% of their income to parties.
