Cartoon Zhang Xiaohe Strikes Chord with China's White Collar Workers

An online cartoon about office workers has become a hit in China. Zhang Xiaohe and his world made of boxes have struck a chord with many young white collar workers. Many of them see the character as a reflection of their own lives at work.
It's a little box man that has resonated with white collar workers in China. Meet Zhang Xiaohe, the leading character of a cartoon created five years ago—now a small hit in mainland China.
Xiaohe, which literally means little box, is a junior clerk. He works unpaid overtime, is awkward around girls and is afraid of his boss. His days are marked with uncomfortable commutes, piling paperwork and abuse by his boss.
Western viewers may see Zhang Xiaohe similar to Dilbert, the American comic strip created by Scott Adams that portrays satirical office humor.
In an interview with State-run CCTV, Grey Chan, a co-creator of Zhang Xiaohe says the cartoon shows a more realistic white collar life that is often mischaracterized in China.
[Grey Chan, Zhang Xiaohe Co-creator]:
"The image of white collar workers has been shining with a flavor of petty bourgeois in commercials and numerous art works. They are always presented sipping wine or engaged in something fascinating. But no one has tried to express the real bitterness and pain in their lives."
For many of China's young white collar workers, Xiaohe's boxed-in life is an entertaining version of theirs.
[Chinese White Collar Worker]:
"He's so funny, everyone likes him."
[Chinese White Collar Worker]:
"Zhang Xiaohe represents the stories taking place around me every day, down to every detail."
Zhang Xiaohe and his boxed-in world has become a small hit in China. He has his own merchandize and a fan page where Chinese white collar workers share about their own struggles at the office.

NTUC to push for Employment Act to cover white-collar workers - 09Nov2012
SINGAPORE: The National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) has proposed that employment laws be expanded as early as next year to cover the majority of Singapore's white-collar workforce.
Currently only white-collar workers drawing a monthly salary of S$2,000 or less are covered under Part IV of the Employment Act, which allows employees to claim overtime pay and retrenchment benefits, among other entitlements.
The labour movement wants the distinction between manual and non-manual workers to be abolished and the Employment Act expanded to protect at least half of Singapore's 630,000 professionals, managers and executives, which form 32 per cent of the country's resident workforce.
"There's a serious need to review the Employment Act on a more regular basis," said Patrick Tay, director of NTUC's Legal Services, adding that the profile of Singapore's workforce has changed over the years and that labour laws need to be tweaked to keep pace with changes.
He suggested that the Employment Act should be reviewed two to three years after each amendment, citing rising median basic salaries and the changing nature of the work and employment landscape.
NTUC is currently negotiating with the government and employers to raise the S$2,000 salary ceiling, proposing pegging the ceiling at the median of workers' basic monthly pay.
This figure is expected to fall between S$2,000 and S$4,500.
The union has also called for greater clarity on the number of rest hours shift workers should get, as well as written contracts for low-wage workers to be mandated.
Currently the law allows for low wage workers' employment contracts to be in either in verbal or written form.
The Singapore National Employers Federation said extending the coverage of the Employment Act to professionals, managers and executives (PMEs) will lead to more rigidity in the labour market.
It said feedback from employers so far indicated that raising the ceiling of the Employment Act coverage will further increase employment and compliance costs as foreign worker policies are being tightened.
Any increase in coverage, it said, should be accompanied by more flexibility in work arrangements and the management of benefits entitlements.
The remarks comes in response to the labour movement's proposals on Friday to extend employment laws to cover the majority of the white-collar workforce.
In a statement, SNEF Executive Director Koh Juan Kiat said: "Higher in-employment costs, over-protection of benefits and more labour market rigidities are the three main concerns of employers, and especially so if certain EA (Employment Act) provisions are extended to PMEs."
The SNEF said it is consulting employers on the labour movement's proposals, and will release a full statement next week.

White collar workers, students vent pressures of daily life via pillow fighting
White collar workers and university students vent the pressures of daily life with pillow fighting and live music.
Five years in the running, the pillow fight, which falls on Christmas Eve in Shanghai each year, has been designed as a creative outlet for releasing stress. The organizers of the soft combat event have outlined four rounds of pillow fighting.
More than eight hundred people joined in the fight held at the Mao Livehouse nightclub. Another twelve-hundred people are expected to show up at a stadium in Shanghai on Saturday, ready to slam each other with pillows.
