The county of Dancheng in China’s central Henan province stopped its bus service on Aug. 12 after its drivers went without pay for several months.

Local authorities forced privately-owned Dancheng Public Transportation Company to resume operations on Aug. 13 but the company complained about a lack of financial support.
