Yu Ran and Zheng Caixiong, Rising labor shortage hits delta regions; Soaring living costs, low wages 'are to blame.' China Daily, Nov. 29, 2010.

Quote:

"The average monthly salary for an employee in the service sector in Shanghai is about 1,300 yuan ($197), barely enough to cover food costs.

"The worker shortfall has been estimated at more than 900,000, according to a recent survey by the [Guangdong] province's human resources department.

My comment: The report was picked up as

Edward Wong, 2 Chinese Export Regions Face Severe Labor Shortages. New York Times, Nov. 30, 2010 (title in the print).

There is no need to read the NYT report.
