Well, chopsticks and forks both take about five-ten minutes to learn how to use so I think the only possible deciding factor would be FIVE THOUSAND YEAR HISTORY THERE MUST BE A BEST!!!!

nevermind:

Forks have been around just as long. Which one are you talking about?

I still prefer eating with spoon and fork smiley I find it easier and less messier.

I heard that the ancient Chinese used forks before they used chopsticks. Forks have the most history. Forks ftw?

nevermind:

Sounds like CHinese BS, let me guess, they say they invented the fork too, right?

You consume less oil because of picking the food up with chopsticks instead of scooping.

good chopsticks are hollow, so you can eat soup with them.

I find myself using chopsticks back home now to eat some western food.  They just work better for some foods.  But food here is cooked with chopstick use in mind...eveything hacked into chopstick friendly pieces.

HugAPanda:

I've been practicing with Cheerios.

Sounds like good practice. Once you have mastered picking up peanuts in a dish you can eat anything with them.

Not really. Before a cup of coffee... I just stab them in the hole and pick em up that way. ;)

Yep chop sticks are great! Why don’t we all live in mud huts without electricity as well?
Progress a great thing!

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
