First something for Cong Lan: Just as you say you hear and saw pictures of China from the German-press. I don’t want to say all the things you say is not the truth, but actually everything are not so crazy as you thinkJ. Seven years before I was just star my college study, but right now I’m a supervisor in a big company have more than 27,000 workers. What I really want to say is time can change lots of things, seven years is not a shot time, many things have already changed. Last year one of my best friend who came form German was get married with a Chinese girl, right now this guy buy a house in my city and planning living in China. Welcome back to China and check all the things out yourself, maybe you will found something different. Second some answer for Zars’s Sorry for point out your mistake the population of the world is more than 6 billion but the Chinese population is about 1.5 billion, so we are not half of word’s population just 1/4 of it. For the job hunters in China, it’s not easy to get a high payment job, but if you just need a job for basic living is not so difficulty. For the kid’s question, it’s really up to the status you are. If I get married I can have only one child. But different status has different solutions. Those solutions can be summarized as follow: 1.If both of the spouses are living in the countryside they can have at least one child. It is means if their first child is a girl they can give birth to the second one. But if the first one is a boy they can have just one child; 2.If one of the spouses is living in the city, they can have only child. It does’t matter the baby is a girl or a boy; 3.If both of the spouses have doctor degree or both of then are the only child of their own family, they can have tow child if they want; 4.If one of the spouses is minority, they can have as much as they want. Answers for your last question: actually I don’t really know what do you mean about “prepared”. For my self, in the year of 2003 I was graduated form college, at that time my payment is RMB2,000 (about 250 USD) per month. Right now is ten times more. For the normal workers in my company their payment is about RMB1,500-3,000(USD188-375) per month. For those who have special abilities the payment can rise to RMB6,000(USD750)per month. In the city I living now, the government’s basic living price is RMB500, this price can just keep your self alive. If you have no job you can apply this 500RMB form the government. The minimum payment of this city is RMB 800(USD100) per month. For a normal life the cost are as follow: rent an apartment about 100m2 with 2 bedroom 1 living room about RMB400 per month; food about RMB15per day and RMB450 per month; other 200RMB(USD25) for traffic and phone and ect. Totally the normal living cost is about RMB1050 per month. But the city I living is just a small city, if you want to live in those big city such as Beijing, Shanghai or Guangzhou the price will double or even more.
