Yes well, it's easy to scoff at but I have respect for the sheer chutzpah of this marvellous piece of chicanery. And by the way, I am imminently due to interview the CCP Politburo about their views on the challenge of censorship in a new age of information explosion, what they make of Obama, and whether Dongbei girls make the best dumplings in China. If anyone has any questions for me to ask the ministers on their behalf, then please email me and I'll try to work some of them in. Please be aware, however, that it may not be possible to get specific answers to all issues solicited.

Whiny Laowai Expats - 3 years 7 weeks ago

Seriously, anyone who goes to China should know what they are getting in to, but this complaining about making "only" 10 times as much as the average Chinese person, or occasionally having to work a 6-day work week, because you have a week-long vacation strikes me as whiny and petty.
