There was a time that China was not free by Western standards, but even in 1978 I did not see overtly OPPRESSIVE controls. Of course, such controls might have been in evidence just around the corner from any of the places I visited - but I did not see them. I saw hard-working and friendly people who lived a simple existence compared to me. I have seen no such controls during my last 4 trips and tend to believe the western media makes mountains out of mole hills. ...but again, terrible things might be happening around the block from where I'm eating hot pot.

China and her people are wonderful. If someone can find a way to make an adequate living there, the experience of day-to-day life would be enriching. There is also the possibility of being in the right place at the right time for new opportunity. I do not know if I'd retire to China, but there are some marvelous spots.

Of the many countries I've visited, China is the only one that feels like home away from home despite the HUGE differences in how I live in the USA and how I live in China.

GUEST19153, maybe he really has serious mental problems. If I remember clearly, he once said that his life would end in six months. Obviously, it is not true.

Carlos, why did you change your avatar into a tiger?
