    If we evaluate 4 cities and specialization which you have chosen to be taught. that's clever to choose Beijing or Shanghai. that's significant which you would be able to spend your stay at China alright and you may pay interest to numerous issues aside out of your be taught. i could advise Shanghai because it has have been given a good exposure to the outer international (globalized) and it has an impressive combination of chinese language traditions and present day lifestyle. you would be waiting to be taught Mandarin and would proceed your journalism (definite it could have some regulations nonetheless from government). The residing cost would properly be in superb condition into your funds in case you hit upon an house that's in a suburban section in case you're delicate with (Plz decide for risk-free locality). one greater earnings is which you would be waiting to work together with the old and new chinese language technology people.

    My tip: Best if you are familiar with Mandarin and both simplified (China) and traditional (Taiwan) versions. Speaking, naturally, will not be a difficulty, but reading newspapers etc may cause problems.

    A favour from me - if you find out whether Taiwan should be independent from PRC or not, please let me know.

    If you can find the answer, please yahoo me. I hope your seeking the answer is peaceful - you know how controversial this issue is among the Chinese.
