Expats chasing their fortunes in China
Its ancient culture and beautiful scenery draw thousands of visitors every year, but it seems that increased salaries and better career opportunities are what appeal most to Britons about living in the Middle Kingdom.
According to a survey by NatWest International Personal Banking, 86 per cent of British expats in China think the high salary they receive is one of the best aspects of life there.
Sixty-nine per cent like the career advancement the country offers them, while a much lower proportion enjoy the exciting culture (48 per cent) and the Chinese people (43 per cent).
Chinas booming economy is drawing more and more number of foreigners every year, many of whom are looking to flee the salary freezes and rampant unemployment of the debt-struck Western world.
Statistics released by the NatWest earlier this year found that there has been an 18 per cent increase in the number of expats working in China and Singapore in the past five years, while the number working in the US has plummeted by 11 per cent.
The new research found that the majority (63 per cent) of expats in China were sent there on work assignments, mainly by international companies looking to expand their market presence. But around four in 10 (37 per cent) moved there to work as English teachers, for whom there is a huge demand.
The most common sectors to work in after education were finance (19 per cent) technology (15 per cent) and health care (12 per cent).
Other benefits of living in China were identified as increased cross-cultural awareness (74 per cent) and the friendliness towards foreigners (63 per cent). Overcrowding and pollution, language difficulties and the communist state's strict censorship however were causes of concern for many expats.
Dave Isley, head of NatWest IPB, said: The emergence of China as a world trade crusader certainly seems to have enticed British expats in search of their fortune. With a wealth of career opportunities and high salaries, China seems to be a magnet to British expats."
A survey carried out by HSBC last year found that expats in China were optimistic about the countrys economic future, with 95 per cent agreeing that the economy was strong. China's growth however is slowing, with the economy expanding at its weakest pace in nearly three years in the first quarter of 2012.

That's not true. It's just dirty western propaganda to portray all Arabs and Muslims as savages. Arab countries would make peace with Israel, if the Zionist entity allowed a Palestinian state, which they won't.Israel will get swallowed by the rage of the Arabian people once US is gone.

Muslims have always protected Jews when the West was committing genocides against them. But then, Zionists are an evil people, they aren't Jews. It's a sick and evil ideology of destruction and barbaric oppression.
CCP has to cover up alot of the crap your beloved KMT has done, or else people would hate you even more. Your party is completely incompetent, always has been and always will be.
KMT party is incompetent, as corruption as indian's gov!
The PLO and Hamas do not want peace with Israel. They want to destroy Israel. Israelis and the world leaned that in 2000 when Perez offered Arafat all the lands, included East Jerusalem, for the new Arab state. Arafat refused, insisting that the Palestinian refugees must be allowed to reclaim their land in the Israel proper. As a result, the world leaned that Palestanians use negotiations for peace to bide time in order to extinguish Israel. What should the Israeli's do?
You do know Chinese textbooks never mentioned that KMT forcefully drafted hundreds of thousands of men to fight the Japanese, and most of those died of malnutrition and abuse before they even see the front line? That's just one of the dozens of facts CCP rarely mentions to the public. Go ahead and read American Dixie mission to China to see an outsider's opinion of KMT. They were so incompetent that Americans thought about killing the leader Chiang Kai-shek so they could assume command.like??? CCP couldn't even cover up its own blunders across the history.

And if you think CCP is corrupt and brutal in suppressing dissent, they look like angels compared to KMT.
From the same survey;
KMT party is incompetent, as corruption as indian's gov!
American advisors to both KMT and CCP during WWII specifically mentioned that CCP was much more effective at utilizing resources and enlisting volunteers than KMT. Since vast majority of people in China at the time were poor peasant farmers, CCP's land reform program was extremely popular and they had virtually no shortage of recruits. On the other hand, KMT was controlled by several large political families and warlords that controlled the vast majority of the wealth, and utilized brutal policies to keep their rule intact.I think both KMT and CCP fought side by side with Japanese..so why are you accusing KMT for recruiting soldiers???and what are you trying to claim??CCP never recruited forcefully???KMT made supreme sacrifice in WW2.they lost atleast 4-5 times more men in WW2.and thats why they lost the civil war.
