Q: Capital Punishment rescinded?

A young university student (Han, 23, Female, Guangdong) I know swears up & down that Capital Punishment has now been rescinded in the PRC.

Did I miss something? Wouldn't this have been huge international news?

No, it has not been rescinded.

I just asked one of my Police friends. "So what?" you say?

He happens to be an executioner.

Said it is alive and well (though not in those words).

Remind me not to mess with you. Or him.

Wow, like a young 23 year old would really know what's going on. I doubt she knows and is trying to stir something up. I would keep my eye on her if I were you. Swearing is not a good thing!

A few months ago, a few crimes that previously held the death penalty were taken off those books. Oddly enough, they were mostly white collar crimes (ie, bribery etc) - some of the ones that, IMPO, think should have remained on the books.

Q: Do I have to be native speaker to teach English literature?

A: You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holdi

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
