I don't think anyone is safe. The so called security doesn't exist.

China Plans New Bureau to Handle Growing Number of Expats
2018-03-16 ThatsShanghai

The China unveiled plans to set up a new streamlined immigration bureau that would process both exit-entry applications for citizens and visas for foreigners, according to a new policy proposed earlier this week at the Two Sessions.

As per state-run broadcaster CGTN:

"The proposed administration will be responsible for coordinating and formulating immigration policies and their implementation, border control, managing foreigners' stay. It will also take the lead in coordinating measures to deal with foreigners who illegally enter, stay or work in China, and the repatriation of illegal immigrants.

"The administration will also provide exit and entry services for Chinese nationals on private affairs and engage in international cooperation in the field of immigration, among others."

Under the proposal, the Ministry of Public Security would set up a state immigration administration that would merge the duties of the current Exit and Entry Administration and China Immigration Inspection.

The proposal also notes that with an increasing number of foreigners living and working in China, new requirements must be raised for "immigration administration and services." Since 1980, the number of foreigners employed in the Middle Kingdom has skyrocketed from 10,000 to 900,000 (as of 2016).

An expert told Sixth Tone that the new bureau will "consolidate all immigration-related information in a centralized database, making it more readily accessible to authorities."

Delegates are scheduled to vote to approve the new bureau along with a series of other sweeping reforms later this month.

Is the number increasing recently? They always compare from 1980. I think this has more to do with the recent increase of locals traveling abroad. Read the article carefully, understanding the source. China likes to spin things and outright lie to gain face.

RandomGuy:

False news of them becoming super strict, like every other years. Supposedly last year was the real change with the new visa rules, I have never seen so many Russians in my city than today. At this point I don't believe such news anymore.

Agreed, as they get stricter more schools restrict themselves to only hiring illegals. I realized years ago when I tried to resume my working summer camps in BJ, I was shocked to learn that only teachers registered with with 1 agency could work legally at New Oriental's summer camps. Qualifications meant nothing

Remember, all illegal foreigners working in China will first get 'forked' by their employer and in the end most likely by the Gov., too!

Icniff, exactly why the govt would prefer shifting to illegals

icnif77:

Gov. will go after illegals because 'no respect for Chinese law' if not because of anything else. Other reason is 'China doesn't really want too many (western) foreigners working and living in China'. We all know that for the last 3-4 years.

I wanted to say, that you (me) can expect manure from employers even when you work legally, i.e. ... some of my threads here ... .

Now, imagine how all that would look like if I would be working with F visa.

I spoke to young Russian English teacher yesterday and she asked 'Could I get an English teaching job in China?'.

I told her the same: 'Don't go to China, 'cause you'll get drained ...', i.e. she doesn't have a chance of working legally, 'cause no degree from English speaking country ... I said, 'go and teach Russian to China, instead English'.

The number of expats in China has actually gone down, thanks to Emperor Xi's drive toward nationalism. More people left last year then entered. More propaganda...

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
