Q: Is the expensive silver and stone jewellery in Beijing's Tibetan shops real?

Many of the Tibetan shops around Houhai and Nanluoguxiang sell silver necklaces upwards of 800rmb with no bargaining allowed. I really like Tibetan jewellery but have developed such a suspicion towards buying things here, afraid that they're fakes. Does anyone have any experience buying Tibetan jewellery here?

Yes or may be. because every expensive silver and stone jewellery is very costly compared to other imitation jewellery.

A:Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China.    So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital.   -- icnif77
