In response to Re Apologies to China (Mike Milken)

Moving to an Asian country is fine, providing we don't sell out our Western values. There are
people on this board who appear to have sold out, putting the interests of China ahead
of their country of origin.

I agree with your first sentence, but I am not sure what you are referring to in the second sentence. In my opinion, it's quite easy. If you are building a house then you employ a bricklayer to build the walls. Do you care about that person or do you only care about the quality of his work?

As far as educational establishments in China are concerned, we are nothing other than sub-contractors in the same way as your brickie is.

We are NOT part of their business, we are not a valued employee, we are simply a subbie who is paid a contractual fee to fulfill our contractual obligations....end of!

At the end of our contract we either stay on to 'lay more bricks', or move on to build another few walls for someone else. It really IS that simple.

Moaning and complaining about things we cannot change is a waste of time and energy. Accept it or move on......
