A good friend of mine has recently arrived in China. He had his degree authenticated in his own country before he came.

He arrived on the Tuesday, had his medical on the Thursday, flew to HK on the Saturday, collected his Z visa on the Monday and started work the next day. All-in-all, one week!

Of course, this was helped by the fact that the school knew what they were doing and were able to expedite the process in a professional manner. At no time during his first few days was he allowed to teach.

Certain posters should perhaps learn the difference in meaning between the phrases, 'You can't do that' and 'It can't be done'.
