Articles : mattharling commented on news When to Hold Your Tongue: The Importance of Respecting “Face”

And yet Chinese love to point at foreigners' flaws or mistakes, it is soooooo funny to call the foreigners fat or giants, it is hilarious to let them know when their Mandarin is not perfect. I guess foreigners are expected to give face to Chinese, but not to benefit from it themselves. Full Comment>>

Around China : mattharling commented on news Urban Women in China Making Strides, Want Gender Equality in Workplace

Give me a break, I am all for gender equality, I truly love women, but in China most are just like the local men, they want everything without lifting a finger. They want more time to watch soapy Korean dramas and take photos where they are trying (yet failing) to look cute, we all know that. Full Comment>>

Articles : mattharling commented on news New Regulations for Foreign NGOs in China Could Lead to Exodus

No WWIII to be seen, the worst (best?) that can happen is the rest of the world puts an end to trading with China, because who wants to trade with thieves and liars? Developed countries would bring back the industry home or move it to other (more fair play) countries. China will heavily suffer from it since its ... Full Comment>>

Around China : mattharling commented on news What a Charmer: Fujian Creep Slaps “Ugly” Blind Date

The man is wrong for slapping her, any true gentleman would never hit a woman. On the other hand the woman was wrong for tweaking her photos. It reminds me of those chicks doing surgery then when they have (ugly) babies their husbands are like "you cheated on me right?". PS, heavy makeup or surgery, you can't hide ... Full Comment>>

I'm curious to know, how you are going to make sure that your drivers don't loot forgotten items in their car? The problem doesn't come from the company but the employees (the drivers) just like every customer related problems in China, the companies have standards that are never met by their staff and the middle ...
