Hi, please help me.
"Add to that the fact that in the five largest manufacturing provinces, the Chinese government — worried about an ever widening gap between rich and poor — has raised the minimum wage 14% to 21% in the past year."
I don't know the structure of the above sentence. I think "that" is unnecessary.
