[quote=APAULT,393230]Believe your wife! Switching the Hukou is not easy. It can take 30 years. Kids are denied schooling and workers are exploited all because of this system. I believe it is related to city based finances and a desire to stop too many people moving from the less desirable to the more desirable areas (ie poor to wealthy), and perhaps it was used as a means of control in what was a ighly controlled society, but the systeem remains. Maybe some Chinese can comment further. It's one of the things you have to accept if you want to live in China. Of course, you might find that you are treated more favourably if you just happen to takle a few ffficials to dinner and buy them some gifts. But watch out, remember what happened to the Australian Hu Chern![/quote]
