RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
- Keep it clean and SFW

That’s absolutely insane! I cannot imagine living like that.
Lucky you got to choose to continue in the company abroad.
Your comment maybe adds to my reasoning of why I love China and east Asia but don’t want to live in China. Still aiming for Japan.
Yeah I wouldn't want to live here again anymore, it's not fun long term. I could imagine Taiwan on the other hand side, it's pretty awesome. Though I could imagine the constant threat from China looming over you isn't particularly nice.
Japan is also lovely, friend of mine just moved over last year. He married a Japanese woman he met in China though, that made it rather easy.
Personally I would consider Vietnam or Thailand and maybe Philippines long term (especially after retirement), mid term we are headed for Scandinavia first.
