I can't believe after 15 years in China, THIS is still the go to excuse for the lack of supervision and corporate ethics here. Sure its hard to help 400 million poor people when all the country's enormous wealth is so centralized. That's just common greed and selfishness. Full Comment>>

Articles : BmanInGZ commented on news Scoot in Style: Life with a Scooter in China

I didn't say you are a douche for liking to ride bikes. I've owned several myself, and they're great fun. Until one day you realize you're mortal and you make a decision to be more careful I called you a douche because you are mocking those of us who do choose to be careful around motorcycles. That style of peer ... Full Comment>>

Articles : BmanInGZ commented on news Kindergarten Accuses Parents of Libel for Complaining about Russian ESL Teacher

...sigh... The thread is about English teaching. I ascertained that a Russian citizen cannot be a legal English teacher in China, and neither can you. These are laws of the PRC and aren't a secret, nor anything to do with me. I could care less who does what here. But in the context of the article, the parents were ... Full Comment>>

It depends on the local 'crackdown.' I had a scooter in Zhongshan while they were banned and being confiscated; never affected me at all. It was that dam patient thief who drilled holes into my shed, disabled the alarm and cut both U-locks that did me in... In GZ they're tightly regulated in the city core, but ... Full Comment>>

It's not about balls; its about risk. Obviously you scoff at the law and enjoy it, but that doesn't make you tough. It just makes you a douche for mocking those of us who've already learned to be careful. Full Comment>>

Perhaps he would have done much better by reading a couple of books about relationships. That would be an investment in his future he could rely on. Full Comment>>

"in our play hang a man" You mean they act out a drama about murder, as this implies, or they "play hangman," which is a letter game? Honestly I don't understand what your point is; you seem to say American teachers suck, so its Ok to hire illegal non-natives to teach English because they're not much worse? I'm ... Full Comment>>

Articles : BmanInGZ commented on news Kindergarten Accuses Parents of Libel for Complaining about Russian ESL Teacher

I know quite a few Russian and Nordic teachers; and mostly they're great people. English isn't too bad, etc... But that's not the point. The point is the school out and out lied, and then threatened a mother to save face. Bottom line: can't get a legal Foreign Expert's Certificate unless you're from a native English ...

Articles : BmanInGZ commented on news Kindergarten Accuses Parents of Libel for Complaining about Russian ESL Teacher

Good point. Teaching is much better when no silly books are involved. Each teacher should figure out how to teach every word, grammar point and sentence structure of the entire English language by themselves before each class. That's called sarcasm. Of course you need books to teach a language! And perhaps if you ... Full Comment>>

Obviously you're not a teacher, yet your expertise on teachers is amazing. Well done I say. What with you having an opinion yet knowing nothing. Here here! Requiring those big-fivers to learn Chinese for several years before suffering it out in China will help a lot. Local parents won't mind spending double for a ... Full Comment>>

Old, old news . Anyone with any experience at all has seen the most incredibly horrible business practices repeated over and over for years .

Exactly . New schools can't legally hire a foreigner for AT LEAST a year. So what does the government think they're going to do for that first year? Full Comment>>
