Ok, ............ah, how about collecting styrofoam or cans? Seems to be lucrative for some locals.

An English friend of mine has opened a bar together with another English guy.  I do not know whether yoy would need a Chinese partner to open a business here. He has his Chinese wife involved in the business too. I guess there are ways to get permission for a business. He told me they just took the officials who issue the permits to a local restaurant for a meal and then a KTV.  Plied them with drink all night long and were told before the evening finished they would get their permit. I think like everywhere else it just pays to know the right connections and maybe grease a few palms.

yea i heard abt it before... some pakistani guys told me that i can invest a few thousand rmb to open a restaurant...

Wait... arn't you in "good relations" with a Chinese agent?  Shouldn't he be able to provide you with that high paying job you want?
