What was the question?

Might be worth noting that you posted at 2.am Beijing time. Everyone's either sleeping, partying or performing satanic ceremonies involving rodents, candles and long cardboard tubes.

Wow...where and when was the internet removed? I better get more sleep...

Anyway, the answers to your questions depends on (1) what you pay for (as anywhere else); (2) your community location (infrastructure can vary greatly), and (3) precisely what you want to access via the internet. I'm sure you've heard of the 'Great Firewall" but there are ways to get around it (so I hear), at least in part.

Porn sites are unlocked now so thats a plus.
D ick tickling as dropped of since this monumental occasion.

You mean USD?

If you are single you shouldn't have any problems at all as long as you don't have too many debts to service back home. Check out the apartment listings in the classifieds section for the type of place you want to give you an idea to start with. It would be better if you tell us what type of lifestyle you want to lead.

Actually getting around Beijing is pretty easy, the subway system is great and cheap and there are buses and taxi's everywhere! Sure there is traffic problems at certain times of the day but getting around is easy.

As for parks Beijing is loaded with parks, they are everywhere, big, medium and small. Normaly there is one within walking distance from where you live and with your high salary your compound might have a nice park like setting right where you live.

Ha, ha, ha... You have not seen traffic yet.

Either stay close to where you work or be near the subway.

In off peak times, cheap cabs, great. In peak times, traffic is hell.

Like I said on your other link, let people know where you are going to work. Odds are, there is a nice place near there for you to live.

Have you ever been to China? Wow, moving there sight unseen. It is not just the cultural change (which is interesting), it is also the air, the dust or sand in the air, the rip offs, the climate, the oh so many things. Better if you see it first, but you already have the offer, so no time for that.

Haha, yep.... it was Frank's place, Mexican wave or death!

Yes, not tough at all to live in Beijing these days, very modern. If you can not speak any Chinese that would kind of suck but then again I have seen many who do ok here and do not speak any Chinese at all.

Having just left Beijing after living and working there I have to say I am so relieved, apart from the fact that its dirty, polluted, overpopulated basically unhealthy, I found dealing with anyone in business or financial bad, I would not trust the Chinese in Beijing who are employers or selling products or services, Liars and cheats, They cheat their own staff as employers shockingly dont pay their wages many times.Time will come when the Chinese people will say enough is enough the CP of PRC will have to change faster than this or else an uprising will eventually come. It seems they rely only economic growth to preserve their one party rule, It wont be enough in the long term Mr Jintao.
