Their Chinese site is basically the replica of English site. The Chinese they use is the complex format that older Chinese or Chinese in HK or Taiwan would read every day. But that should pose no problem for the Mainland gamblers. I am from Mainland being brought up with Simplex format, but I read complex format just as fluently. I think the next big task for them is to make this site known through out far east by launching aggressive advertisement. tis the only way to attract the eyes of high roller's in Asia. Asians are born gambling animals. But Worldgaming offers a simplex format Chinese site which caters specifically to Mainland Chinese. IMHO, HK and Taiwan as well as USA are a major source of affluent Chinese gamblers, but NOT Mainland China yet. So adopting a complex format is better suited for GGNC's purpose. I would emphasize that 1.2 billion Chinese in Mainland is still relatively poor and can't afford online gambling. 99% of them don't even have credit cards. So for the near future, the revenue has to come from affluent area such as HK, Macau, Taiwan and Singapore. With such an sincere effort to make a whole new site in Chinese as displayed by GGNC recently, I can't imagine any conspiracy behind. This is simply a small group of people who try to make it big through the Internet, not by pumping and dumping a stock. Jing
