Q: Does China have a "let them eat cake" mentality to it's own problems?

Or is it more of a sleight of hand and shift the blame?

Do you mean that e.g. the air pollution is dealt with by buying off the population with shiny new stuff that will soon enough fade ?

The Chinese are pass masters at shifting the blame. It is always someones else's doing no matter what the problem is that arises. They can even dream up imaginative ways to blame others for natural disasters. No problem is ever of their own making. And I mean never!

Excellent comments Kai! OMG..what an understatement!!!! The Chinese like the South Koreans will point the finger at anyone over anything!! I've read countless examples of this as well as speaking from personal experience. :( They are PROFESSIONALS at shifting the blame. ** They have an EXCUSE for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!

China's motto: "Order in disorder."  Everything looks and is chaotic, but it works itself out in the end.

mattsm84:

If by "works itself out" you mean "enjoys short periods of prosperity between long periods of decline and decay", then I agree. At this rate China's problems will have "worked themselves out" some time in the next few years.

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
