      Sorry, I was referring to the links given in the article, not the article itself. Specifically, the source of their "90%" claim: http://www.cec.com.cn/jtxw/2019/1209/8ac085cc6e112a0f016ee947c8ac00b5.html

      I have found a article (in Chinese, by Chinese media, to eliminate "western bias") documenting the current state of transition:

      https://www.thepaper.cn/newsDetail_forward_23639950

      Although this article states that the transition is happening, but it seems like it is no where near mainstream in Chinese government.

      There are also a Chinese government version of windows : https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2017/05/23/announcing-windows-10-china-government-edition-new-surface-pro/ , which seems like a strong competitor of linux.
