Blogroll: China Opening Up

Matt | Chinese Culture, Living in China, Preparing to Come, Visas | Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

I haven’t done a blogroll recently, as I haven’t been writing much recently, but here goes.

Since the Olympics have ended, I’ve heard that the visa situation has gotten a bit easier.  Then I stumbled across this China Briefing’ post Hong Kong Issuance of China Visas Easing.  This article mentions that it is for tourist visas in China and once you get onto the mainland you’d need to change it into a working visa.  It’s nice to see the visa trade is opening up too.

Lost Laowai’s You Buying the Angry Expat Ideology? This post talks about the importance of opening up our minds and hearts if we truly want to live in a foreign country.  It’s a nice idea about why foreigners get upset so often here in China.  Open your minds and hearts.

Filination.com has a nice exhibit to help you open your eyes: China’s Top 5 Most Beautiful Girls.

China.org.cn has a post with pictures of an Adult hotel opening in Nanning.  The photos makes help you visualize how China’s sexuality is becoming more open in such a traditionally conservative culture. Open your minds, hearts, wallets (legs?!)
