    This is the new one, I've ever read about.

     

    So, what would I do if that would be me:

     

    1. You signed Contract with School, which is still valid unless in case of 'force majeure' (natural disasters or School ceased to operate).

    There should be a clause in the Contract on how much money you should receive or pay (as penalty), in case either party...

    Wow, you really found that nitpicky talking point that elevates the fossil fuel industry to the same level as the interests of humanity. Isn't it all just a "liberal" scam, if you don't look too closely at the absence of logic? "Yes, it must be. My masters are hinting that that's what I should believe!"

    You've made it clear you are consciously ignoring the pollution and global warming....

    If he did contact the embassy they would tell him to engage a lawyer. They at least might be able to point him towards a somewhat decent lawyer, I don't think they'd be of much help aside from that though.

     

    I doubt the lawyer would be able to do much other than help negotiate the compensation he will need to pay.

    Treat questions like that and the people who ask them with the contempt they deserve. Just laugh at such unsophisticated bumpkins (xiangbalao tubaozi).

    The fantastic achievement of simultaneously burning so much coal for heating that I can't see the end of the fucking street but said heating being so shit it has made no difference to the temperature of my flat.

    This actually makes sense, if you want to attract foreign students to your university and potential spies, unintended benefit, you need internships in their field of study like most other top universities around the world. Also, if your demographics is hurting your young labor pool, some free interns can fill the void. The only problem with all of this, it is possible for a Chinese...

    Actually it peak a few years ago and is on the decline.

  • Dec 25,2017

    I actually just want some fair results of policies left or right given to the average public citizen. The death penalty is a good example, how much does it cost to keep these people alive with appeals, government lawyers, healthcare versus what we spend for a productive member of society, for their child to attend school.

     

    I am a severe skeptic of doing the right thing...

  • Dec 23,2017

    The answer appears to be 'yes' (unless, of course, you consider the US government a terrorist organisation... which I do).

     

    However, before you go jumping the gun and blaming it all on Islam, let me remind you that there are a whole host of other countries that have a Muslim majority where people are not going overseas to conduct terrorist activities... Indonesia, Malaysia...

    Sexual harassment in the workplace is not about the single inappropriate grope or comment.

    It can be the relentless non-stop low-level comments on physical appearance or women's natural bodily functions that occur day after day from colleagues.

    It can be the boss who thinks it is ok to 'compliment' a woman on how she dresses.

    It can be small things that occur day after day...

    It will depend on a lot of factor based on the new scoring system, did you try the new scoring scheme on wechat? Go to search on wechat and type it in and you'll find one there than test yourself and look at your score and see if you can improve anywhere to make the score higher, better start improving your chinese and hopefully youre in a needy city.

     

    Just for the record:...

    I can confirm this is true. I work for EF in Taiyaun and all the non-native teachers have been given termination letters to this effect. Here is a paragraph from the letter:

     

    'Unfortunately we have been advised by the Foreign Experts Bureau that with effect from 1st January 2018 we will no longer be able to hire new foreign experts or renew the existing work permits of...

    Well with a population of 26,000,000 people and probably at least 10,000,000 motorized vehicles spewing toxic gasses into the atmosphere 24/7 kinda says it all.  Like Beijing I'm surprised people can breathe there at all.

    Barometric pressure today is average, so I don't think that is much of a contributing factor.

A:  "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "S
A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
