Doing my annual thing of renewing my work permit and RP. Because I am myself 50%+ of the administration in the company, I do the employer side stuff too.
When starting a new work permit application on employer side, there is now separate option for "foreign spouses of Chinese citizens". I have not seen this before.
I'm not using this (I can just renew my old application), but it might suggest eventual relaxation of employment rules for foreign spouses.
@alienew: "The workers should hold them liable with brickbats."
Well, that would set a dangerous precedent, which would only result in only tighter enslaving of employees in future operations across the nation. And certainly overriding limited liability of iinvestors only serves to drive investments away from these places.
The second to last picture with all the shop signs actually reminds me of Hong Kong.
Perhaps off topic, but this is strikingly opposite of recent developments in first tier cities and in fact even our own apartment block in northern Kunming, where the authorities are forcing shops to remove excessive signs on the streets and in the walls - basically anywhere outside the immediate space the shops have leased.
Alright, if you go that way then everything is assuming. Assumptions is what made our ancestors come down from trees and cross a river and a mountain range. You assume quite a bit already when you go to sleep at night.
I am not assuming anything that didn't happen already. China already had a peasant revolution that was supposed to bring prosperity to all.
I am not asking for another revolution, but I am asking for that same spark. I do admit assuming that the Chinese state can contain such spark better this time.

And that's the difference between limited and unlimited liability ownership.

发布者@Dazzer: "you go again, asume asume "
Is it assuming if I have seen it with my own eyes?
