Forums > Study > MA studies in China - corruption?

Surveillance society is what we have, globally, but I don't think anybody makes a big point to pick out MA students in in China, unless maybe it's the NSA. Ask Snowden.

@HFCAMPO: Probably because, unless it's really serious for any long period of time, it's easier than moving. Lack of perfection is normal and does not have to lead to misery.

Spice?? Huh.
But maybe that's why people are interested in 'dirty' and 'character' and 'quaint', even if it's all mostly new-old - the thing is to be 'entertained', hopefully all the time.
Perhaps when things are said, we need to think about what is NOT being said.

The locals will likely want to keep them around if there's economic value (e.g., tourism) for doing so.

Can't connect with the link, but I think it's a culture that promotes very high regard for those you know &/or identify with (begins with family) but not a lot of regard for anonymous others - e.g., 'the public'.

@Alex: tourism & ziplines - tourism probably will do this, make it into just another entertainment - contact Disneyland.

Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.

As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.

Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.

Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
