Probably not.
The sad reality is that with competitive wage systems, the teachers willing to work for the lowest amounts set the market rate.
Not VPN, but I watch a lot of TV on PPTV.com.
They have a lot of US TV series. Madmen, Grey's Anatomy, Monk, etc. And it is free.
Thanks for the answers.
Alpage,
Was Yan'an expensive?
Like anything else, there are limits to capitalism.
Just read Upton Sinclair's 'The Jungle'. Then compare Chicago 1905 with China today.

Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.

Kunming neighborhoods face water rationing

Interview: Environmentalist Li Yuan
发布者Taiyangneng (solar heating systems) can be wasteful but need not be. Ours has a small wind driven pump on the roof that constantly circulates the water around the house, so that there is always hot water throughout the system, close to every tap.
Chinese academic ponders globe-spanning railways
发布者@ Blobbles,
I agree, the train to the US would not be that great. A journey for enthusiasts perhaps.
Look at Chinese travelers today, who takes the 2-3 day journeys now? Those without the means to pay for another choice. I do not see it being a feasible link for business travelers.
Rail links to the US would be useful for freight trains, but they will not be doing 300kph in the foreseeable future.
