Q: Anyone know why there are cops at every Beijing street corner these days?

They were even outside my residential compound, next to a middle school, this morning. And my place is fairly remote.

Yesterday, they were at the main intersections next to the National Library, where there's really nothing. There were 12 or more of them just at one intersection.

 

Is there something going on I don't know about?

I'd say the crackdown plus they want to look cool carrying that big gun of theirs. I ran down the street and hit the hat off of one of those police officers he just looked at me and smiled. He thought it was the wind that did it!

You hit the hat of one of the officers? And he smiled at you?

I am having difficulty accepting the veracity of this statement.

I have worked with Police, and they do not have much sense of humor for this kind of thing.

It is because of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization meeting taking place here. A lot of big-wigs from five different countries are meeting so security is tight.

A:You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holding English Teaching license in your home country.2nd: Your BA degree should be completed in a native English country. Once, you fulfilled these 'parameters', you qualify for an English teaching job in China as a non-native English sneaker with Z - Entry/Working visa with Working and Residence permit later on. See the last 'Answers Highlight' ---> there is a web link posted about 'requirements for teaching English language in China as a non-English native passport holder'. https://www.gooverseas.com/blog/guide-teaching-english-china#paragraph-item-63614-target

*English proficiency: Passport from one of seven "native speaker" countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa). If you aren’t a native speaker, you’ll need to be a certified teacher in your home country with proof of your English proficiency (e.g. IELTS or TOEFL). I'd say, Chinese will choose and look especially for a native English speaker at teaching of English Literature job openings. Posted job adverts for English Literature teaching are most likely from International Schools in China. Good luck! -- icnif77
