Around China : jetfire9000 commented on news Shanghai Taxi Driver Investigated for Ripping Off Passengers on Multiple Occasions

Didi Dache seems like a niche market... for some reason cabs don't seem to use it at all in many cities. In Shanghai its sorta iffy. Even worse are tier 2 cities or anywhere outside of Jiangsu province in general. Uber seems to be headquartered in Shanghai, maybe it works better there...? Full Comment>>

I thought duty free shops were supposed to be cheaper. But what do i know - my first and only foreign country to travel to so maybe im just being skeptical. But im guessing there's the same catch with these. Drop the tax but jack up the price. Full Comment>>

The gift of "Up Yours" or as he's known on this forum by a certain somebody, just keeps on giving. I pretty much don't care if he had principles because all of his principles created consequences for others that were far worse than his personal principles. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see what happens with him as ... Full Comment>>

This is plain irresponsibility on the tourist's part. You really need to be on guard at all times, especially in mass transit hubs where its easy to imagine thieves are waiting to target unsuspecting travelers and part them with their expensive belongings. Robbed by a limping old man? That just says it all. 20k RMB ... Full Comment>>

I watched the first Jurassic Park movie in IMAX a year ago and it was heavily neutered.... the one good scene of the guy on the toilet getting eaten by the T-Rex was entirely cut out. Having watched Jurassic World a few days ago I'm pretty surprised that they didn't do the same thing for that. The stuff that makes ... Full Comment>>

It doesn't seem too farfetched if you consider that one of the categories of people mentioned eligible for new green cards is that of university professors. I've come across quite a few older individuals in their late 50's and early 60's who appear to have chosen to be a university professor here for one reason or ... Full Comment>>

This post is very telling in terms of what it takes to be successful in any environment (or life in general.) Before, there were only highs in this poster's blogs. Now, remarkably, there are lows! (e.g., acknowledgements of racism, having to brush things off and keep your cool.) However, with these lows there is ... Full Comment>>
