I'm sorry to disappoint you but China is about to stall and so will wages. Only a fool and a wumao would believe the government statistics. When Japan stalled, average yearly Japanese income was USD43000, as of now, average Chinese income is USD7000 per year. BTW, the middle class represents 2% of China's working ... Full Comment>>

Folks, those massive "staff tour groups" are just another way to smuggle money out of the country. Most likely the bosses went through a travel agency and bought totally overpriced plane tickets then got a generous kickback (50%?) in Korean Won or USD. This sir, is how you China. They don't give a f*ck ... Full Comment>>

How about asking the driver to pay for compensation? I mean as far as I know, Uber (and Didi too) drivers are independent and only use the app to find passengers. The driver should be held responsible for using his cellphone while driving, not Uber. But hey this is China. If I were, as a Foreigner, to lose a leg in ... Full Comment>>

That's a great move, so that when these kids reach adulthood it will be even easier than before for Foreign men to get Chinese women, there will be virtually no competition from socially inept Chinese men. Great move China. Full Comment>>

There is no way that understanding racism makes it more acceptable. If White Americans thought the same way then Chinese in the US would still be building railways in the middle of nowhere and Blacks would still work in cotton fields. Making the apology of deep ingrained racism makes you a racist too regardless of ... Full Comment>>

It's because you have no idea of what you are eating. Fruits produced in China usually contain 3.7 times more pest killing chemicals than the limit recommended by the WHO, because they are grown by uneducated farmers who just drop the whole keg of pesticide instead of dosing. Worse than that the soils on which those ... Full Comment>>

Tell me about it, manly men purses are everywhere these days. Somehow I can't feel any respect for those guys. Full Comment>>

Lord_hanson is right, China was traditionally very tolerating of homosexuality, this until the late Qing when Western values of that time entered the Guo. Though only under Mao the hatred for homosexuals became mainstream among the masses. Ironically enough, those proud Chinese who fight against "depraved ... Full Comment>>

If you feel like you are being ripped off then don't pay and walk away, there is no way illegal cabs can sue you for not paying, if it comes to hands then any fit laowai can kick their ass easily. Full Comment>>

I will obey the law when Chinese do the same. i.e I will jaywalk for as long I see Chinese doing so. Stop me if you can. I don't jaywalk in South Korea of in Japan because I don't see the locals doing so. Full Comment>>

Don't get me started on those Chinese gangsters in Thailand. Full Comment>>

She should know better, Vice Principals in China never involve themselves with the students and discharge all responsibilities onto the Administration and the Head Teachers. In between them and the students there are: [Students] -> Teachers -> Head Teachers -> Educational Consultants -> Administration ... Full Comment>>

This guy knows how to China, pretty sure he is corrupt as fuck. Full Comment>>

Ah, people like this Guest dude sound desperate, they hardly understand the human psyche. You can't blame them for psychology with Chinese characteristics is based on myths instead of facts. The more you hammer Chinese women not to marry or date Foreign men, the more they will do it. It's human nature to go against ... Full Comment>>

For the sake of your children, please be careful when around Chinese men. [[http://shanghaiist.com/2016/02/29/haikou_primary_school_stabbing.php]] AND [[http://shanghaiist.com/2016/03/01/rock_paper_scissors_gang_rape.php]] AND that's only for the past 24h. Full Comment>>

Seriously? Now thanks to those incompetent cops there is going to be random reports of Foreign terrorists all the time. One more good reason not to interact with the local Chinese AT ALL. Full Comment>>

Back home people born on the 29th of February just celebrate on the 28th and no one cares. In China being born on the 29h is seen as a curse and might result in one becoming a social outcast. China #1. Full Comment>>

Honestly I'm so fed up with cold weather this year (4 months non stop in GD, seriously?) that I will take 25 celsius with light pollution than 2 celsius with clear skies, thank you. Full Comment>>
