I think you actually mention the root of the problem in your question. The keyword is "transparency". China is notorious for its lack of transparency and this goes hand in hand with corruption. Rumors have been circulating for months that construction of the Beijing-Shanghai highspeed rail was sped up just to be ready in time for the 90th anniversary on July 1st. Experts believe that the line was far from ready, hence all the problems that are emering now. I believe that if China was suddenly transparent, we'd be utterly shocked at the carelessness that goes into these projects and the greed that fuels it.

I have read in the news about 26 trains cancelled, three Shanghai railroad officials sacked and 33 dead with close to 200 injured. Vice-premier and Railroad Secretary went to scene immediately.

I am not aware of any news blackout.

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
