No board of Directors, no accounts. no official address, no transparency and a lot of censorship. It must be run by one state or another. I can't imagine that people would be SO altruistic.
11 years 32 weeks ago in Visa & Legalities - China
It, if I recall correctly, is run by a privately owned company. And in order to make money with a site like this in China, you have to walk a thin line or the site will end up getting blocked.

After a few moments of 'investigation', it looks like eChinaCities is a subsidiary of SITEC, which is an umbrella company based out of Canada & Beijing. They deal with all kinds of businesses from consulting to trade to e-business, etc... The parent website is http://www.sitec.com

Thanks for that, what a strange set up? There was me thinking it was some sort of front for the CIA. I've been reading too many comics.

Yeh, I like your posts Loke, especially like the way you hold that mirror, but the CIA using this pissy little site sounds like a stretch to me. But then, like they say, 'truth is stranger than fiction and there's nowt so strange as folk'.

Shame on you mArtiAn, this is not a 'pissy little site', it's a very important place for people to exchange honest,intelligent and very important opinions about China and the Chinese. I get the impression that some who comment here are experts in many fields of Chinese social interaction. Pity they appear to be blinkered about their own counties.
I think, echinacities is owned by TAP, Portugal Airlines
