Q: Does cars in China have catalytic converters?

I suspect the answer is no, but what about e.g. European imports?

I'm going with yes but again they would be imports from usa, jap,korea Europe
Purely as they need them to run correctly
Local cars in china made for export also would to meet import requirements

Scandinavian:

Yup, but if you e.g. look at the VW model range. Most models have engines with lower output.

"Does car in China..."
 

NON-NATIVE ALARM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NON-NATIVE ALARM!!!!!!!!!! EVERYONE GET HIM!!!!!!!!!!

 

Unless they're imported, then no they don't. And even then, they still might not have them.

Scandinavian:

I believe my wording was pretty much OK. Just FYI. I am not a native English speaker, nor did I pay very much attention in English class in school.

  Yeh, the hint is in the name, Hulk, me old mate: 'Scandinavian'.

  As for catalytic converters, i've no idea what them is. They does smell like farts though, doesn't them? There's an idea for a car sticker right there: "It wasn't me, it was my catalytic converter." Bwa-ha-ha!

Hulk:

Oh, so he told us all along? No matter.

 

And it's "do."

 

"Do cars in China"

 

If you wanna use "does," you'll need something like "Does the Chinese government require cataclysm converters on purchased vehicles? Does the Hulk have a large penis?", etc.

 

The answer to all of those questions is obviously "no!"

for both penises and governments, it's not the size that counts it's how green it is.

I'm surprised that China isn't using leaded gas. The gas we get now does nothing for mileage, even if you use hi-octane. Using cats,, probably.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
