getting ass drunk on the weekends?
haha, just kidding, i led a pretty decadent lifestyle in korea and it was hard to get off the crack. |
I hear Tokyo also has people puking on the streets on weekends as well. |
So does the whole of England  
What? No-one else thinks it's fun to drink until you spew?  |

what sort of investment opportunities? |
What planet have you been on? Much of the business world is drooling over and fears China for its huge employee base and the like. China is already the world's third-largest economy and the biggest recepient of foreign investment in Asia (Korea is the second).
One economist says the standard of living in the West will go down over the long term due to China's economic promience in that manufacturing and other industries will all relocate there for lower labor costs.
Might wanna read the volumes available on this topic. |

Don't patronise me.. Of course I've heard there will be opportunities in China. I want to know what opportunities 'specifically'. Thanks for letting me know it has a 'huge employee base' but with a population in the billions, you are stating the bleeding obvious. |

dude, is it hard to see?
so china has a much bigger work force at a much cheaper price. If you are an american or any english speaking manufacturer, you want to produce goods cheaply so people will buy them.
if you move operations to china, then you can accomplish that, but at the same time, you want to be able to communicate on many different levels of the organization with the chinese counterparts.
multiply this by thousands, and you literally have millions of job opportunities. that is of course you have sufficient language skills plus whatever business skills that would be required. |
