Does anyone know the status on the people that were stuck in Mongolia? Is this true? Did they get back, and were there problems because of the new changes to Chinese visa regulations? Just wondering if it all worked out, and what the current situation is for them. Also, I have to say that Lian is the Chinese person in the situation, who should be able to take care of such dealings...not to really take sides, but Jenny is probably not going to be able to do a whole lot in such a situation. You need a Chinese to take care of Chinese Consular affairs, really. I'm guessing that Jenny was just the messenger. Besides, if Lian was legal, a Z visa wouldn't be a problem for her to obtain for someone, but since she cannot, that should give a pretty clear message as to whether or not she is allowed to employ foreigners. If you are legal, you can provide such a visa...if not, then you need to try to cheat your way into providing it for your employees, but as Lian knows VERY well...that doesn't always work. :(
