My statement was in error. Most, meaning many, ads for teachers nation wide that I saw up until about August asked for Americans. Now that is no longer true. I believe that was due to the agents looking for teachers to sell at that time not specific schools. So my word "MOST" was in used in error. At the time I thought it was excessive.
Napoleon. I did not say or mean in any way that American native speakers are any better nor better qualified to teach English than any other native speaker of English. What I see advertised most often nation wide for native speakers is American ones. I did not say it has anything to do with quality or capability to teach well. I know many non native speakers who are great educators too.
Nnoble thanks worth a try. Beijingesc I have found Overdrive not accessible most of the time from China. DanThe Man pan.baidu.com is fine except not easy to navigate in English. QQ.com English email seems to work ok online.
Basically simple files like audio, images and short videos over 10-15mb at this point.Files just to big to email.Even a few GB's of limited free storage. A lot of file sharing is not allowed.
I, an American, was recognized as one of the Zheng He ambassadors. It will be on YNTV tonight 7-17 and tomorrow. Zheng He should be a role model or inspiration for Chinese youth to become the next expolrers of outer space and exploration of the planets.
I would suggest that hundreds of thousands of trees, shrubs and plants were killed by the cold. Air quality and air safety is going to be a real problem in the area without a massive replanting scheme by all. Yes some plants will revive. Some will be finished off by massive over trimming. The continuing cold weather is not helping. What is the government planning to do and how can we help?
I can personally comment on Qiu He. I can honestly say that when I directly asked him for help to stay in Yunnan, five years ago, his staff directed me to the proper city and provincial government staff persons. I gave no bribes. Paid no one anything. Nor was I asked to give any benefits anyone for anything they helped me with to stay in the province. I have never had to pay any government person to stay here in business.
Where might we find or obtain a break out or list of the non-mainland passport holders living in Yunnan by country or other location? We are particularly interested in the general numbers of various westerner nationalities living here.
