Maoming City Party and Government Agencies, and Public Institutions Fully Implement Digital Renminbi for Issuing Subsidies and Allowances

ChainCatcher news, according to the "Maoming City" WeChat public account, Maoming City (a prefecture-level city in Guangdong Province) is continuously promoting the pilot work of digital RMB. Recently, I learned from the Maoming branch of the People's Bank of China that the party and government agencies and public institutions in Maoming City have fully implemented the distribution of subsidies in digital RMB.

In July this year, the Maoming Municipal Finance Bureau and the Maoming branch of the People's Bank of China jointly issued the "Notice on the Pilot Work of Distributing Subsidies in Digital RMB." According to the requirements of the "Notice," the party and government agencies and public institutions in Maoming City began to fully implement the distribution of subsidies in digital RMB starting in September. By the end of October, a total of 359 budget units in the city had implemented the distribution of subsidies in digital RMB, with a cumulative total of 75,883 instances of subsidies distributed to administrative agencies and public institutions, amounting to 81.738 million yuan.

At the same time, Maoming is also promoting the quality, expansion, and efficiency of the digital RMB pilot work, expanding multi-channel payment methods. In the next step, Maoming City will continue to promote the distribution of salaries in digital RMB for all budget units in the city. Additionally, it will actively promote the construction of a digital RMB application demonstration area in the eastern section of the Maonan River in Maoming City.
