Unfortunately Turnoi you may be discussing the point with people who benefited from the existence of these useless entities. Of course they will not agree with viewing all of these pretend "schools" as illegitimate and the fact that they need to be shut down, period. For me, I gave these businesses one chance after another, and the more "schools" I went to the shorter I stayed due to their inability to respect me as a person and treat me with dignity. I do not believe they will all go away anytime soon, but that is because their business in my mind aren't being hurt enough. We must continue to expose these places no matter where they are in china and drive all of them out of business, period.
I frankly don't care if these places gave older teachers a chance to visit a new country and have a change of pace. What chinese people in general need to know is that expats will always put hope in going to a foreign country, and china seems attractive on paper due to her industrial development. But in the end you can either make your own culture (I am talking about china) better by getting expats to stay/settle down in your country and gain confidence in the world community or you can continue your crappy modus operandi across all business types and isolate yourself from the rest of the world.

Of all the years I have posted on the board Turnoi, you have been the most supportive and consistent. I haven't had the will to post as much recently but I should devote myself more to giving out a voice of opposition to these crappy businesses. I hope you are enjoying life wherever you are at :)

The older teachers go to state universities and not the English Centres you want to close down-so, those teachers are safe from your chopper there, yes?

Although some older teachers are given opportunities by private companies like Yuncheng IELTS who don't actually teach on their own premises but send FT's to Middle schools to teach. Yuncheng IELTS was justifiably pursued and given short shrift by posters still posting on this forum. Is there any reason we should stop pursuing Yuncheng IELTS?

The "crappy businesses" to which you refer never give older teachers a chance.

That is a noble thing to say-you should leave no stone unturned for any "crappy business" to wriggle under.
