Q: Can we trust PAY PAL in China?

I need to buy something that is $620 from abroad and they do not accept western union or wire transfers, and my U.S. credit cards expired. My last alternative is Pay Pal. Are they trustworthy and reliable here with a safety/security guarantee?

so far so good...

but you know I have a feeling it won't be long before Paypal hurts the Chinese feelings and it will have to face blockage until it apologizes.

you never know

Tarzan:

Is it the same operation or a JV version? If the latter I would expect a lot of problems like missing merchandise, no refunds, etc.

Call the CFTU and find out. You are with them.

Tarzan:

What does Pay Pal have to do with the CFTU, an organization you seem very obsessed with for some reason as I read some of your posts ?????

Yeah Ted, how can you talk about the CFTU? You obsession, quite frankly, is a little unnerving.

Do we even know that ted is your real name?

How can any of the good men and women of this forum believe anything you say? Now that's a sobering thought.

Q: Can a Z visa holder do graduate studies in China while working?

A: Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside

A:Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
