Around China : nzteacher80 commented on news Weifang University Students Punished for Holding Hands on Campus

So you think that there should be a rule about people holding hands? You don't think that a grown adult should be able to choose if he or she should or another shouldn't hold people's hands? The question is: why shouldn't someone hold another person's hand? What danger does that entail? Full Comment>>

Articles : nzteacher80 commented on news Foreign Correspondents for Chinese Media: Propaganda Tools or Agenda-Free?

I too agree that journalism died a slow death quite some time ago. While journalism in the West has had its credibility compromised journalism in China is a whole different kettle of fish. There is a difference between editorial bias and wholesale lying. Full Comment>>

Blogs : nzteacher80 commented on GaliaSlavova 's blog The Administration Horror or How not to loose nerves when dealing with Administrative issues

I'm sure there are some, maybe many, non native speakers that have a good command of English. If EChinacities was an accurate measure of non native speakers then I'd be tempted to say that non native speakers who work in China tend to have a poor grasp of English. Sure there are plenty of native speakers that ... Full Comment>>

(Shanghai) Features : nzteacher80 commented on news Budget Shanghai: Living on 10,000 Yuan Per Month

I wouldn't work in Shanghai for less than 20k or 18k + accommodation. Screw living with anyone that isn't your partner. If you are over 30 then flatting with others becomes old really fast. If you are gonna earn 10k a month after tax then move to a smaller city where your RMB goes much, much further. Full Comment>>

Western countries don't recognise qualifications from almost all non-Western countries. I have caught many a taxi in New Zealand and Australia and after a short conversation have realised that the driver is a fully qualified surgeon or civic engineer. It isn't fair but then no one ever said that life was meant to be ... Full Comment>>

If he'd been dressed differently he would have got away with it. The shoulder length hair, the open shirt over the skater-dude t-shirt, the backwards baseball cap... He's obviously set off their douche-bag alarm and they've come running. Foreigners; the come over here, they take our women and they evade our fares. Full Comment>>
