[quote=CLAUDIUS,248897]Best to find a trustworthy American or Canadian or even European who has been in one of the major cities in China for a couple of years (and who is serious about establishing a career there as well!), get a ticket and visa and stay with this fellow for say, about 2 months, travel around and meet more expats. I say you will have a much much better idea of what you can do after that. After all, if you plan to work in China for a while, what is a 2-month investment. Please do not consider starting up a business first, without knowing what you're getting into, it is perhaps the most risky decision in your entire life (besides marriage). I started up my business, in 2003 in Shanghai, the myriad of rules and tapes in setting up a business operation is enough to give me a mental block on the most important aspect on what a businessman should have, a business sense. I had my first project only 9 months later, 4 months after the SARS outbreak.[/quote]
