I think one reason expats keep on leaving is being worn out with all the me-first attitudes of the expats who are there. Too often you will hear an expat give a token critique of their host country but will shy away from the real ugliness lying underneath because they are the main benefactors of that. Although occasionally one or two will pop out of the woodwork when reality driven boards like this one gets too much under their skin. Then they have to screw themselves over gleefully by jumping on here and telling us how wrong we are because they didn't have all the bad experiences and what not, but they show would be expats who are thinking about traveling to china how much ugly of characters they can expect to deal with.
