Rakifi, this question is going to be determined by locality more than anything. RMB 30,000 per month in Beijing might be middle class while RMB 10,000 in the Dong Bei might be middle class. Because of the disparity of incomes in China, and for most things, of housing, etc., etc., the locality will greatly influence this determination. All of that being said, perhaps you might tell us what city or what part of the country you have in mind, please.

Rakifi:

Good point 981. I guess to rephrase my question, what is "middle class" in tier 1 cities (Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen); Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities as well.

I agree. It is going to be different all over China. And when the bubble bursts the midle class will disappear in less than 2 years.

I got Z stamp and when back in China, I had to complete another RP ME, which was on the employer, i.e. included in the Contract ...We've never discussed refund of payment for HK ME with my employer. Year 2013 ...I'd say, that is a regular thingy embassies around the world require, before issuing visas for LT stay in the country. "Vladimir Vladimiro-Witch ras-Putin" (LOL@your pronunciation ..) demands the same thingy before granting LT stay in Ruski. ... Haa, 2013 was the Snowden's year. I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ...
