[quote=WANHU,339976]1)  Majority of the Chinese people have high regards for native speakers of English.  Every English speaking native is very proficient and knows everything about English.  That is why, a person without proper academic qualification can land a good teaching job in china comparatively with a local graduate with English major.
2)  We used to have that kind of perception for foreigners, and even I was taught basic English for a couple of years by 2 American and Canadian Peace Corps in the 60's.  Even local teachers with Kirby graduates were looked with awe.  This perception slowly withers when more students are sent overseas and people in my country can speak English well, from government employees, students to night market sellers.
3)  Perhaps this is not a discrimination but rather a priority and appreciation.
4)  When my younger sister in-law, a Chinese looking girl,  teaches English at UCLA, students are unhappy because they prefer white Americans, they (the students and not the faculty members) try to find faults with her and never succeed.  This, to me is discrimination.  How about my sister in-law?  To her, students come and students go, she has tried her best to render her service with responsibility
