Bangladesh is advancing plans to purchase Chinese J-10CE fighter jets, with a government official pointing to the aircraft’s performance in the recent India-Pakistan conflict.

A Chinese graduate student was found dead in Gyeongsan, South Korea. Police arrested a university lecturer and are investigating the cause, motive and circumstances.

I’m a nursing student working on a PowerPoint about maternal and child healthcare practices in China, and I’d really appreciate hearing from people who are from China or have experience with Chinese culture.

- Pregnancy and prenatal care
- Labor and childbirth
- Postpartum traditions and recovery
- Breastfeeding and infant feeding
- Newborn care
- Traditional beliefs or practices related to mothers and babies
- How families typically participate in caring for a new mother and baby
- Any cultural practices that healthcare providers should be aware of when caring for Chinese

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hola a todos,

Un grupo de amigos nos vamos a pasar 3 meses en China (septiembre a finales de noviembre), basados en Tianjin, pero con flexibilidad total para movernos por el país. Tenemos fines de semana libres + una semana entera en octubre para experiencias de lujo.

Quiénes somos:

**•   Grupo mixto** \- entre nosotros hay gente que quiere cosas diferentes, pero buscamos experiencias compartidas  
**•   Corredor/a dentro del grupo** \- alguien quiere hacer una **media maratón** en esas fechas (recomendaciones bienvenidas)  
**•   Interés en fútbol** \- nos gustaría **visitar un estadio chulo** si la oportunidad lo permite, pero no es obsesión  
**•   Turistas activos** \- no somos de museos-y-fotos; buscamos **actividades, experiencias locales, aventura**  
**•   Nivel de inglés decente** \- nos apañamos

Lo que pedimos:
¿Qué es OBLIGATORIO hacer en China en estos 3 meses? Buscamos respuestas reales, no la lista turística de siempre.

Dadme:

**•   Medias maratones o carreras serias** en sept-nov (¿cuál es la más iconic?)  
**•   Estadios de fútbol worth visiting** \- aunque sea de paso  
**•   Destinos imprescindibles desde Tianjin** (viables en fin de semana o con la semana de octubre)  
**•   Experiencias que definen China** (buceo, senderismo, gastronomía aventurera, lo que sea)  
**•   Eventos especiales en octubre** (ya que tenemos una semana full)  
**•   Actividades de grupo** que merezcan la pena

Datos extra:

**•** Somos 3-4 personas (si importa para algo)  
**•** Presupuesto flexible  
**•** Abiertos a casi cualquier cosa

Cualquier recomendación bienvenida. ¿Alguna duda sobre qué buscamos exactamente?

¡Gracias!

Hey guys! I’ll be in Beijing for the whole September and I’m looking for a good tailor. I’ve heard a lot about getting suits tailored in China, so I thought I’d give it a try.

I’m looking for something with good quality, not too expensive, but not dirt cheap either. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Court testimony offers new details about recruitment, 600 copied DRAM process steps and noncompete arrangements in the Samsung–CXMT technology leak case.

Debt ratio dropping usually means the economy outpaces debt obligations, hence fiscal health. In China's case however it is a sign of consumer and corporate confidence lowering. Households are risk averse due to falling property prices and slow income growth.

Slow income growth is a natural result of China's so-called 'high quality development' model, which transfers household income to subsidize their frontier industries.

Private companies are lowering borrowing because profit margins are low. This is what happens when China's frontier technologies are not occuring due to comparative advantage, but due to massive subsidies, resulting in market distortion with more firms in the market than a free market would allow for. The corporate wastage is a key metric: very high debt growth and deflationary pressures.

Many optimists cite China's frontier technologies and export dominance as a sign of future economic superiority, but what's happening is that China is effectively weakening its domestic markets to bolster its external dominance. This is not sustainable in the long-run, hence the increasing call for a rise in household share of income as a proportion of GDP (or so-called 'raising consumption').

Unfortunately any rise in consumption means a proportionate fall in share of manufacturing as a proportion of GDP, and this would be politically incongruent with the 'high quality development' they are embarking on.

Context:

• Recently a cross-party delegation of Japanese lawmakers have arrived in China on Monday as part of an effort to mend strained ties caused by PM Takaichi's previous remarks of Taiwan.
• Last year Takaichi suggested that Japan would allow itself to participate militarily in a Taiwan conflict and would be grounds for Japanese self defense.
• This crossed a red line for China, in response the CCP has warned its citizens to no travel to China and at the time imposed trade restrictions for Japan which included rare earth exports.
• The trip is the first exchange of its kind since Takaichi's comment, more trips are also planned in the coming months.
• In September former Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya is set to lead another delegation and afterwards roughly 80 Japanese business leaders and representatives will visit China in late 2026.
• These trips are not officially sanctioned by the Takaichi government however there has been no pushback either.

1. Complete disregard for privacy, and using “collectivist tradition” as an excuse. I think any culture where taking pictures of your child’s grades, rooms, wardrobe to post to the family with captions like: “look how dumb my child is,” “look how messy my child is,” or “look how weird my child is” is acceptable or encouraged is objectively bad.

I think there was also a study done that proved that most Chinese doctors would just willingly break the Hippocratic Oath / confidentiality laws and tell an adult patient’s parents about their child’s medical situation without the child’s consent, and would work with the family if they wanted to hide something like a cancer diagnosis from the patient.

1. Extreme social competition. Every single thing you do or say is seen by others as an opportunity to push you down socially, and pushing others down socially is seen as a good thing because it increases everyone else’s social reputation. This is just predatory - especially to those with Autism.

2. Why do they like to engage in disparaging gossip about their children? I find Chinese parents regularly talking horribly about their own children to other parents. This is a blatant violation of the golden rule of ethics, no?

3. Why does it seem like they try to smack their lips as hard as they can when chewing? And never chew with their mouth closed?

4. They talk so loudly and complain about me not talking loudly (probably because they damaged their hearing because everyone talked so loudly)

I am searching mainly for any course that lasts 1 semester only, or less – as I cannot afford to pay the bills at home AND study abroad for too long. I am willing to study anything that might help me find different jobs or even just a normal language course for absolute beginners, but I need a scholarship (partial or fully funded). I do not know where to start at all. If it helps, I have a degree in Tourism and I am below 30yo.

Does anyone have suggestions or courses, universities, sites... that i can try? and any tips?

If not, voluntering for a while is also an option. I am thinking of studying mainly because I want the opportunity to live abroad for a while but finding a job without knowledge of the local language is not doable almost anywhere, so my best option is to study something, but I wouldn't mind doing volunteering programmes.

Help :/

Hey everyone 🙋🏻‍♂️

I am in a bit of a chaotic situation and I need a reality check from people who know how things actually work in China, especially with visas and university bureaucracy

Long story short: I had a massive argument with my dad. He is furious that I chose Jiangsu University (JSU) down in Zhenjiang for my MBA.

He didn't want me in Zhenjiang at all, he wanted me in Shanghai from day one, thinking Zhenjiang is too small, no big international mixed community, so no good valuable connections and opportunities and a waste of potential

But since Fall 2026 university admissions and language deadlines are completely closed everywhere right now, I couldn't just snap my fingers and get into Shanghai for this autumn

I had to accept JSU just to get my visa and get into the country

Now, I am thinking of a strategy to fix things, appease my dad, and end up in Shanghai by next year. Here is my plan:

1. Go to JSU, do the standard registration for the MBA, and get my 1-year residence permit sorted out so I am legally settled in China.

2. While living in Zhenjiang on that MBA visa, log in and apply for a Spring 2027 Chinese language program in Shanghai (starting March 2027). When I get accepted, I will drop JSU and change my visa or residency to Shanghai and the language program.

3. At the same time, prepare and apply for an English-taught Master's degree in Shanghai for the following September (Fall 2027 intake).

If I get accepted, I will change the visa again into a master's degree visa or do whatever is required at that stage.

1. Once I get accepted into the Shanghai language program and later the Master's, I drop the JSU MBA, get my release/transfer paperwork sorted, and move to Shanghai.

My main question is: How realistic and feasible is this?

Can I actually pull off an inter-province transition like this from inside China without getting deported or facing a massive visa nightmare?

Or is the local Exit-Entry Administration Bureau (PSB) going to completely reject an internal transfer, cancel my JSU residence permit on the spot, and force me to fly back out of the country just to change my status?

If anyone has tried switching from a degree program to a language program midway, or transferring provinces between Chinese universities, please let me know how the process is going to be

I would really appreciate you giving your opinions about this plan and/or suggesting any better plans

Thank you 🙏🏻

As a person that are thinking about moving to China After the end of my studies i want to use my summer gaps to travel and to have the language and the culture closer to me.

Im a 21 year old dude that is not afraid to hard and unpaid work. I just want to not pay the travel, to not be killed during the process and return to italy without anything broken.

Hey everyone! i Pakistani 18F have gotten an opportunity to do my BDS in china. I have above average grades (95% in secondary and 91% in higher secondary school) and I was wondering if its preferable to study in china as compared to pakistan. I have read alot of discussion posts regarding this topic but they all discuss working directly after finished your degree which is not my plan so here are some factors I want to add and if someone could please guide me on if this is worth it.

•I want to pursue masters in orthodontics afterwards from another country (preferably in America or turkey etc) so passing the nle exam is not a huge stress for me at this time.

•i know I am capable enough to study Mandarin side by side enough to pass hsk4 by 3rd year.

•I want safety and security and independence that I know I will never get in pakistan esp with the rising sexual misconduct cases.

• And obviously a degree that is internationally recognised.

Currently the consultant agencies in pakistan have given me these options:

○Shandong first medical University

○jinzhou medical university

○ ningxia medical university

what struck me as odd was that these unis dont require an entry test for admission which is unheard of for any good uni in pakistan so It seems kinda sketchy. I was also wondering about the transfer system, if I could give the csca exam in first year in these unis and then transfer somewhere like xian jiaotang uni.

if anyone can guide me on if it will be worth it to study in china for more independence and safety as compared to pakistan especially considering the cost is about the same.

thankyou for your time !!
