You are hard of reading friend. All of the posts you cite above make reference to only the 7 employee rights that were/are mentioned in the chain letter. Each mention of the 7 rights I made was in the context of different threads where it was related to each particular comment. I set out to find all 15 of the employee rights that were mentioned and as I told you above - I POSTED THE 15 EMPLOYEE RIGHTS ONLY 1 TIME.
So again I ask you, why are you so concerned about foreign teachers learning about their employee rights? What possible reason could you have for not wanting our teacher colleagues to know all 15 of their employee rights? I answered your question so can you please answer mine?
As for your comments about deleting the 2015 Foreign Teacher Requirements I see no link between one topic and the other. I am not a big fan of censorship in any venue. About me being fairly new to the forum, are you suggesting people cannot speak freely here or post threads for some period of time, or that everyone here does not have an equal voice or ??? |

| I thought for sure the courtesy of an explanation would be coming. Let down by another expat. What is the world coming to? Maybe I should stay in China after all. |

Your statement says it all.
You failed to comprehend my comments about how saturating the forum(s) with the same messages and links to scam sites is perceived as spamming. (Look it up if you don't know what the word means.) No one wants to see this forum turned into a shrine for just about every suspect China scam site. That's why some posters have been testy with you.
Anyway, I'm off this thread, but hopefully, the Moderators are keeping an eye on your posts. |

Nomad Soul... you must be blind. There is one and only one post on this entire China section talking about 2015 China Foreign Teacher requirements and it is this thread here that I started 10 days ago. There are no multiple posts about this topic so I challenge you to prove otherwise.
This is a valid subject that every teacher deserves to know about EVEN IF all the old veteran users here already know that the official 2015 requirements are the very same as 2014 as follows:
<> A bachelor degree in any major
<> A valid passport with a Z visa
<> 2 years previous work experience
<> English fluency
<> Age 21-60 years
<> Police certificate for Beijing
These are the official 2015 MANDATORY legal requirements to teach in China and anything more is optional according to SAFEA, the U.S. embassy, Chinese Embassy in Washington, and China Ministry of Education as you can check yourself at these links:
http://www.SAFEA.com
http://beijing.usembassy-china.org.cn/acs_teach.html
http://www.moe.edu.cn/publicfiles/business/htmlfiles/moe/moe_2803/index.html
As I mentioned previously, Teaching certificates (TEFL, TESOL, and CELTA) are not mandatory unless you work for the EF chain that requires them. But if you have never taught before getting one is a damn good idea and may help you find a position faster. At present about 8% of expat teachers in China have one and the trend is growing.
So Nomad Soul, if any of the above information is not correct, please enlighten me with a reply and links to your sources. |

Do you ever get tired of talking to yourself or are you the kinda guy who just loves the sound of your own voice? |

I notice that when people misquoted you Kong, you immediately spoke up. When people twisted facts about something you put forward, you were quick to make the correction. Do I not also have the right to make the same clarifications? Nomad Soul made false claims. Whether they were deliberate or not, it doesn't matter. I pointed out the discrepancy.
So once again to be clear, NOBODY talked about these 15 Expat Employee Rights ANYWHERE on this web site before I made this post. And prior to this post we all had only discussed 7 of the rights. End of story. Let's move on. |

| You're right Bud. This forum isn't about me - or you. But when people twist the words or deliberately misquote others to make someone look bad, ignorant, or stupid, people have the right to clarify and correct the misinformation. Since I already set things straight on the matter above, no reason to discuss it further unless you disagree? |
