And the best of luck to you for sure.

And it might be a good notice that this Board can really serve up tremendous amounts of misinformation at times....nationwide blacklist, etc., etc., never get another permit, etc. That kind of serious misinformation serves no one well at all.

There is indeed a national blacklist. I'd be surprised at any country that didn't have one.

But, that blacklist is not designed to be used as tool for punishing former employees, and doing a midnight runner doesn't rise to the threshold.

The fast track to ending up on the blacklist involve accusations of very serious misconduct, examples:, major theft/fraud, sexual assault, and spying are what I am told are the type of things that lands one on the list.

There are Province level blacklists too. But they have a lower threshold and an ex-employer, with sufficient pull, can have an ex-employee added to that.

Most employers are simply not inclined to go through the effort for a teacher who simply took off. But that depends upon the situation, guanxie, and personalities involved too.

Evarorsure it is the most serious of offences. The students complained that the teacher was too fat. Or the teacher only talked with the girls. Or the teacher only talked with the boys. Or the teacher talked of Taiwan or Tibet or Tienamen. The teacher was ugly and had a bad odor coming from their feet. These things are important in modern China. Students rule here.

So we are forced in China to not name names or places. As an ex member who I can not name said, " We deal in obfuscations here" What we deal in is paranoia. So this is the most dangerous place here to talk freely because they can trace the posting and send you to Beijing where you will be free to express yourself. Sure Suanlatudousi!
I myself will continue to avoid politics with my students and keep everything at a game level. I will never expose my students anything that does not come from the China Post or official Beijing literature.
So Taiwan is part of China and China is part of Taiwan. Just a reason to give jobs to the military and people to build all the necessities of war. There is no problem here or in Taiwan. Obfuscations for saber raddling. I have been in Taiwan numerous times and found many mainlanders and I have run into thousands and thousands of Taiwanese here on the mainland. What is there to say?

Update:

I return to Shenyang to visit my friends without any problem. Even though my old school canceled my FEC in Shenyang last year and they told me I could not work in China again, I had no problem getting approved to work in Beijing.

I also met someone with SAFEA that said she might be able to get me another FEC in Liaoning if I want it.

So don't let a school bully and intimidate you. You can change your job in China if you hate it!
