China Is Growing Unfriendly to Foreigners, Visitors Say

please read below link from "The Washington Post":

It seems "some people" in China urgently need a strong reminder on following:
1) How to behave against foreigners + guests + friends of China !
2) Where all the growth and increasing wealth in China in the last 25 years is mainly coming from !
Sure there are always bad people everywhere in the world - but it looks the new "patriotic feeling for China" is misunderstood and abused by some people.
Careful guys - this is a sensible topic and we should not allow to grow up anymore "racism against foreigners" ! History has teached bad results.
By the way, comment moderation is switched off for the moment.

This post shows how pathetic WP is - without any in-depth research so they have relied on gossips for publication.

First-off: the mentioned teacher of English on visitor visa for 4 years is a standard visa-abuser. Get a work visa if you profit from your work in China. Did you try to work without a visa in the US or EU and registered your displeasure at the law?

Gossip= the reported 'Hunan' student himself (an American) declared it was a false report.

My recommendation- stop thinking yourself as a savior for placing some orders in China, as if you did volunteer work.

one more recommondation here: Sure many "visa - abusers" - but how comes a system is that "fleeeexible" and suddenly everything is going back to times somewhat 20 years ago ?
Isn't it that both sides very much enjoyed this kind of "win-win" situation ?
Dont worry also in Europe are many illegal workers without any proper work-visa ! It is very important for China to show real FACE now and at very first "grab their own nose" and not only start "shooting" against foreigners now - who have been quite useful the last 10 or 15 years.....And nobody placing orders in CHina has the idea of being a savior - it is business - but the chinese side benefits more - and you know why ? Because they are learning some kind of standards they have no idea at all - and believe me this learning will last another generation .....
