    As the Mom of an American, I wouldn’t vote for Romney either. He is king of the 1%.

    As a chinese who has been living in US for 5y, I will never vote for Obama. Look at the economy crisis in China right now, how many factories have been closed up because of no orders from US? How many companies have moved out of China? look at the RMB to Dollars a few days ago, Scary!!The pool will dry out if no much money put in.

    I just wish they did more for their people, not just lending money to other countries, cause this is where they got money from.

    Thinking of 100 years ago in USA, Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used borax or egg yolks for shampoo. If useing diaper is not an affordable method, then….how many public bathrooms on an busy street? Sigh…. It is gross thing pee anywhere!!

    Hi Margus:

    dian hui is money wire transfer in chinese.

    I did this when I was in china one year ago. I don’t think bank will charge you more if you’re not chinese. BOC charge 150 RMB service charge and 0.1% of the total to be transferred,Bank of Communications,80 RMB service charge, 0.1% of the total to be transferred. You may need to offer swfit code of the bank you want to transfer to, and the bank account information both sending and receiving parties.Bank wants your passport, tax and empolyment information too. In order to advoid disppointment, It’s good idea go BOC ask about papers they want.

    Bottom line: avoid blackmarket money exchangers, you will get ripped off or worse. it’s good if you have a trusted chinese friend or fluent yourself.

    How I got here is totally an accident. I caught cold just right the first day of my vacation. My BF lives in another town 2h away. He was forbidden to come see me cause I didn’t want to pass the virus to him. When we talked on phone, I told him I missed hotpot so much, he sent me a photo of hot pot.

    Still remember how they started to build station on Tian FU Square. What a big operation there! I could see it from 12th floor of city tower every day! Now I’m far away from chengdu,my hometown, miss you so much!!

    By the way is there any line from shuang liu airport to the south of 2nd circle?

    Wire money from bank to bank should be cheapest. Go bank and ask about ‘dian hui’. Usually charge 0.1% of total amount and take 3-5 business days.If banks are business parters of each other, cheaper and faster. good luck!
