Be glad you don't live in China

[dunkin]

Here is an article that you may find interesting. It gives me a bit of a scare, since it does apply to my particular business interests.
Glad I don't live in China or do any business in that region of the world. Just something to think about.

"With the rapid development of the paid-call service market in China, some lawbreakers make use of this form to spread obscene information and even conduct prostitution," Minister of Information Industry Wang Xudong was quoted as saying.

Pretty funny when you consider that the name Wang Xudong could well be pronounced "Wanks your dong" |jester|

It's a communist country so they probably just scare them and then get good pribes.

I have been working in old CCCP. If police stopped us when we were going somewhere by car we just paid and then continued.

I wanted my bodyguard to come with me to Finland, but he didn't had a pass. Woman in office said it takes 7 months to get one. I put money inside his homeland pass (they had to keep homeland pass with them all the time, police could come anytime and ask it) and said we wait until the foreign pass is ready. We walked out there with new foreign pass.

I can tell stories like that for whole evening and more. I'm sure it's same in China, Cuba and North Korea. In those countries I haven't been, althought I like Cuban music.

Right on! I was in Budapest about 4 weeks ago - they are not under communist rule anymore, but the corruption is still rife there. It's not unusual to see a merc stopped for speeding, the window comes down just enough to slide a few notes through - and off it goes, tearing ass down the street again.... lol

As far as sex/porn biz goes, I see little difference between the Communists in China and the Neo Con Christian capitalists in the USA - they both want to lock folk up!
