Doug: I cannot agree with you more. As a Chinese from Beijing, I have to admit quite a number of my country people give way too much credit to US systems. They come here for only a few years, know very little about US systems as a whole, yet, they think everything here in the US is so rosy and advanced, and everything in China is so corrupted. I feel sorry for them.

Talking about "GuanXi" (connection), I think it is universal in every system. I just found out that here in the US if you have some friend working in companies who is willing to refer you as a potential employee, you don't even need any interview. The company will hire you right away. As a matter fact, over 80% of positions in the US private sector will never be advertised. They are filled only by referral.

I appreciate and enjoy very much your post. Please keep them coming. Have a nice holiday, and wish you the best.
