Q: Finding chirimoya/sweetsop in Beijing.

I'm starting to miss this awesome fruit. I could find it on Taobao, but it's awfully expensive - around 35 yuan for one. Apparently they are imported from Taiwan, and they are not really the same.

Do they sell these babies anywhere in Beijing?

I hope GuilinRaf sees this post, he will know what a "chirimoya" is, and maybe where to get it in Beijing.

I have not seen them in a long time.

You can try the foodstreet at WangFuJing....they have a place called Tawain street that apparently sells all types of foods and other things that are from Tawain such as toys for kids there. It's a place in WanfuJing if your not sure where it is you can ask somebody around there or just look it up on a map it's called Tawain street or something similiar to that. If it's candy they are sure to have it there because I saw them selling all types of candy that I had never ever seen before! Good luck!

Q: When do you need to get a medical examination?

A: Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before

A:Your potential employer is right! Demand for 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
