I guess it would depend on if you were a national or a foreinger, and then, what was stolen. A third componant would depend on who you knew...

A hand slap for some, jail time for others  and I'm sure everybody knows what the last thing would be if somebody got caught stealing.

From the lowest possible punishment to the highest possible punishment. Locked in jail losing face or just a warning.

It was in the news some months back.  A shoplifter was caught by Wal Mart employees stealing from their store in a Southern China city.  They gave chase when he ran away, and caught him up, and beat him to death.
Is that typical ?.  I guess not, but from nothing to die is the range you must consider prior to shoplifting.  Is it worth it ?.

Yet, from my observations while shopping, there is a lot of that going on here.

I heard of a French guy busted for stealing a scarf. Was in jail until they did the paper work to boot him out of the country, about a week I think.

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
