Q: English speakers in Baotou

My job has just moved me to Baotou, the largest city in Inner Mongolia. I'm wondering about the English speaking population here. I'd like to make some friends, be they white, yellow, purple, etc. as long as they can speak decent English (I've only just started studying Mandarin recently, so it'll be a while). Any English speakers out there in Baotou?

Try any local universities or public schools - there must be a few foreign teachers attached to them.

Also if there are any foreign food places like KFC/Mc D's or Starbucks (i know that chances are in Inner Mongolia........)

Coffee shops are another place to try out.

If you have any local friends to ask, find out where locals would go to practice their English.

Thank you, I suppose I just need to explore the city more. I've only been here a week.

Q: When do you need to get a medical examination?

A: Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam bef

A:Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China. So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital. -- icnif77
