Q: What's the most you can sue for here?

I don't know about here, but I know in my own country the Untied States people have been awarded millions. Recently, a girl traveled here with her boarding school and she was severely injured while visiting the countrysides of China. The tick that bit her nearly paralyzed her and she can't even talk right anymore. Many of the other students got affected, but not too serious. She was awarded around 47.1 million dollars.

 

With that said how much can a person sue for in China? Is there a limit how much they can sue for? I'm sure it's not anywhere close to 47 million dollars!!

I thought  you said you were Portuguese?

If you are indeed from the states, then you should have known what D.I.Y. meant in another post....

I have had my doubts, Chinese is my first "guess" but North Korean also could be a possibility as per http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-11-21/china/35257194_1_dandong-labour-shortage-tumen

Who knows? How much are your damages? What's my share? 

You know that $47m judgement will be appealed and most likely greatly reduced but no one will report it.

$47,000,000 was delivered for person! China is progress! Don't not doubt glorious People's Republic! Traitor capitalist filth!

From 1997-2007, all the national compensation for the wronged law cases victims are 680 million RMB.

There are a few famous cases, like 2 years ago one innocent guy wrongly imprisoned for 11 years got paid 650 thousand Yuan from the gov't.  Name is zhao zuohai.

Okay Silva, this is getting ridiculous. I hate to be one of "those guys", but there's no way you're from the U.S. Just admit you're Chinese and we'll all get along and sing happy songs. Nobody really cares where you're from, but pretending (poorly) to be someone you're not is always going to make enemies.

A-bloody-men to that!

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
