Even low-level government employees like elementary school teachers and nurses have been ordered to hand in their passports, to enforce “discipline.”
Only a matter of time till things start going this way. For Super Earth.

Nothing new. My wife was a teacher in China, and when they came for her passport just after covid, we left the country instead.
Good call.
This is pretty common in China. My Chinese classmates say that some of their friends quit their jobs as teachers because they wanted to travel abroad and have a passport.
It’s been that way for a long time apparently, only made more evident now by the increasing relevance of Chinese geopolitics and their stronger economy compared to their neighbours
