Dont be fooled into thinking all is cheap in China, my friends apartment in Shenzhen is valued at £3000,000 around $450,000 a little low as to the fallen value of the British £,  I was staggered at this, the rooms were small

To be honest I really don't see that much lack of human rights here. What I see is a law abiding cpommunities. Everyone knows thier place and acts appropiately here.

Shark, it's like a lot of things, you got to know where to look.

What you have written sort of makes me laugh.

It reminds me of some old white anglo saxon protestant guy, all dressed up in his sunday suit, with his short back and sides, and he's saying to himself, I've never had any problems with police brutality.

Well you're not going to have any problems are you?

You're there having a good time, you're not sticking your nose into anyones business, and so there's no reason why human rights is going to become a problem for you.

You're a really smart guy in a lot of ways, so I'm not having a go at you. I've learned a whole heap of stuff from you.

When I go there in a few months I'm not making a fuss either. I pull my head in. I encourage all the brothers to do the same. Talking about politics and human rights in China is something that isn't going to help your cause (whatever it is) a whole lot.
 
I don't pretend there's a whole lot of stuff that has gone on, that continues to go on, that it isn't real ugly - but I know it's not something I can do anything about.

If you want to do something about it, donate to Amnesty International, but when you're visiting keep the three monkeys in mind: see nothing, hear nothing and say nothing *laughs*

Hi Mike,


     So glad you're doing great. If I can't find a teaching job in my lady's city, I'll be checking Shenzhen next. It's only about a hour bus ride away from Guangzhou so I can go see my GF on my days off. I'm not giving up on a job in Guangzhou so easily though. Since my break up with Ping, my plans changed (Obviously), I'm now planning on moving to China by the end of November, maybe the beginning of December. If all goes the way I want, I'll apply for my Visitor Visa and find a job there within the three months permitted to stay in the country. I have an army of Chinese ladies searching for a job for me. :icon_cheesygrin: My GF and her friends are asking around for me. I need to find a job that will hire me even though I have no teaching history and no teaching credentials. I would prefer not to spend the money on a TEFL course if possible as it would prolong my time away from my GF because I'd have to save up another $1000.00. My lady wants me with her by Christmas this year but she also understands that there's a possibility it may not happen until next year. Being away from her is painful to say the least. I need to get to her as fast as I can. Haha, I buy lottery tickets every week......a guy can only hope. Anyway, I have to jet. Later all.
