I don't think the root cause is still the payments only.
Of course, you can never relax end juct enjoy your noble educational cause somewhere in the middle of nothere. In rural areas or in the very small villages teachers are still ,essentially, very poor. But they may be the most educated or the most respected people in the entire district - they are still the symbols of something bright or something promising. People usually respects education, especially in backwater districts.
In towns the situation is different. Teachers are often respected as another kind of servitude. You can be a private teacher, maybe even well-paid, but you are still in need to do an AWFUL lot of bureacracy and paperwork. And you job is just another kind of civil service - you're the talking machine.
