Current events happening on our side of the Pacific:

• There are lots of fake products in China - fake DVDs, fake designer bags, fake watches, fake clothing, fake divorces, fake perfume, fake baby formula, fake drugs, fake rain, fake money, fake autoparts … and now fake ATM machines. Watch out where you stick your ATM cards!
• People recommend seeking second opinion regarding medical conditions/treatments, but in China, you might need fourth or fifth opinion. Three hospitals misdiagnosed a man with cancer and had his penis sexual organs cut off, only to discover later it was just an infection.
• China is trying to stop people from jaywalking, so the police are taking photos of these jaywalkers and displaying them in their [jaywalkers] offices to humiliate them.
• Release of Mission Impossible III has been delayed in China because of a scene (filmed in Shanghai) that showed underwears hanging from bamboo poles. Will have to wait for those scenes to be deleted before the movie is released here… unless you’ve already picked up a bootleg copy off the street.

And many more to come in the future.
