Visiting China recently I was surprised by how often your ID needs to be presented. Inter city train travel, tourist attractions, etc all require your ID (or Passport for foreigners). Camera surveillance maybe ubiquitous now, but the ID che

Not sure what the point of this post was. The lessons 'articulated' are well understood, and was missing the additional context need to add flavour. The author was 'happy to answer questions' - but isn't that the

I can only comment on the Singapore numbers, and the housing costs are way off, 1800 sing dollars? That might get you a bedroom in a shared apartment not much else. The salary levels also seem low for SWE's.

But from who and where will Huawei future growth come from? Domestic Chiba sales alone. Their market presence is very strong there, but in the EU and US definitely not the case. It will be interesting to see if their tech can overcome the p
