tiger you could be right. This thing is known by various names. The current name is "FBI Identity History Summary Check". I searched several terms and always came back the link I posted above. I also tried to find a walk in address but all information indicates an address in West Virginia. Alternatively, you can deal with a FBI "channeler" with electronic fingerprinting and emailed reports. Best promised tine was 3-5 days.
There is a place to get authorized fingerprints in Beijing.
I am impressed. Getting fingerprinted usually takes a few minutes. I guess electronic fingerprints are handled a lot faster these days.
Here is a notice on the above link:
"On September 7, 2014, CJIS installed a new IT system. As a result of this installation, we are experiencing delays in processing. Please be assured that each issue is being identified and resolved as quickly as possible, but at this time anticipated processing time for an Identity History Summary is approximately 14-16 weeks. Allow additional time for mail delivery."
You have got a problem. First there is no such thing named "FBI no criminal check". You have an official asking you for a nonexistent, not required document which will take months to get even if you figure out how to get it. Your first problem is that you can't tell them this as it is a second hand request to you. Getting a "FBI Identity History Summary Check" done not easy. It requires you to be fingerprinted, not easy while in China. Go to this link for a start:
There is a lot in play here including 面子of petty officials. Be precise in your statements and questions. Be cool and tread lightly. Remember you need help,... please.
tiger, you are right. I disliked the walk=in ECs as it was the same numbing questions over and over. Other ECs with an agenda also seemed to require someone to be the facilitator, native English speaker, who carried the load.
I tried to get Chinese to explain things to me like hukou, or, "Do you want to: 1) stay single, 2) get married and have a child, 3) be a DINK family, or, do they gay thing? Try, "Would you marry someone who is divorced?"
I would research topics well. Knowing what questions to ask helps. Try to spark disagreements and let them talk to each other as long as it is in English.
Yes, I have had conversation, in a EC setting, asking Chinese to explain the Hukou System. The implications for Chinese society and China's economy are great. I find if it is a topic Chinese are familiar with then the effort is on expressing their knowledge in English.
Also have discussed China's labor law, pollution and food safety. I find that propaganda agendas produce strange discussions roughly divided into two groups: parrots and those that scoff.
BTW, I never pontificate but elicit letting Chinese speak and use English. Any information I use is sourced from China's media and is in English. I never inject Western news into these discussions.
@lemon lover:
Not only conspiracy theorists use BS. I stumbled onto Koire by following links of web 'authorities' who deny both the Tiananmen incident AND the holocaust in Germany. Go figure.
Somehow, progressive think morphs into antisemitic think into help the poor of the world by taking from 'rich' countries to give to... well I don't know who gets the wealth.
The Agenda 21 approach seems follow socialist wealth redistribution but skirts the central planning model. That is, until the central plan is replaces by Agenda 21 and implementation is by the masses. A horse is a horse, of course, of course.
So far, as I read Agenda 21, Koire's "inventory and control all land, all water, all minerals, all plants, all animals, all construction, all means of production, all energy, all education, all information, and all human beings in the world," is what Agenda 21 is all about. A horse is a horse, of course, of course.
I guess getting to the name calling is a lot easier than reading the 350 pages of Agenda 21. Saves time and thinking for sure. And, if you read the right snippets on the right websites to learn what you are suppose to think, you get to have your own ideological biases reinforced.
Yup, that's her, the lady that objects to private property being seized to create off street bike lanes. She describes her self as "[I've] been a Democrat since I was registered to vote . . . I'm anti-war, I'm gay, I'm [a] feminist." Not so much a right wing conspiracy nut I think.
Be aware they will push whatever they are selling. Some of the staff have no idea about the technical side of appliances.
I went there to buy a stove. I repeatedly told them I would be using bottled gas. They sold me a stove. When I went to my local gas guy, I learned there are at least three kinds of gas sold. Luckily, B&Q did not deliver as promised. I went back to the store and discovered they had sold me a stove they needed to be hooked up to the gas main. I got my money back.
The sales lady was almost in tears, 没有问题！I don't know if it a safety or design issue, but I would think B&Q would know and care.
Subway starts at 9am. I have no idea where to catch an airport express bus. Eight taxis refused to go to the airport. After almost an hour standing on Beijing Lu took a black taxi, this dude drives slower than my mother, 120 yuan.
Flight back was delayed so I learned the subway stops running at 6:10pm.
Getting a taxi back was easy, more taxis than customers. Taxi was 87 yuan including 1o yuan toll, airport to Beichen area. Yes, he took a longer route than necessary.
Kunming imagines being a gateway for international travelers. New airport but hard to get to and from it.

发布者Peter99, I concur with your praise of Mr. Goodman. Not so keen on the earrings.

发布者Thanks Mr. Goodman. I have a few photos of ladies in the pointed hats. Tried to find out, with no luck, about them. Very interesting piece.
