On the board, there is a 'self-appointed' expert right now, 'scholar' by name, giving advice about Chinese visas. Prior to that he gave advice about studying Latin in the US!But I'll not give any advice re either.The Chinese Embassy website can do so re the former,but the right to change policy without notice is reserved by said Embassy! So,when does the advice of OTHERS become redundant?You tell me,in fact you needn't,I'll tell you - as soon as it's given!
