Culture shock is a term that is easily available out there. Well, it basically refers to the feeling a traveler gets when s/he visits another place or country and finds that local customs are quite different from his or her area of origin. Culture shock comes in a number of stages depending on how long a visitor decides to live in a foreign country. Most foreign visitors to China admit experiencing at least some form of culture shock. As far as I know, the best way to enjoy your travel abroad is to have a certain amount of tolerance stored somewhere in your mind prior to arriving in a foreign country. With tolerance and keeping an open mind, your experience abroad will end up being more fun and a great learning process.Most foreign visitors, especially visitors from western cultures, will be greeted by several dissimilarities in culture from day one of arriving China. Even more so if they are not visiting those highly developed and westernized cities like Shanghai, Shenzhen and the Hong Kong semi-autonomous region. On this site we have provided you with basic cultural tips and life in China, to make your experience a rich and rewarding one when you visit the country, or are in the midst of Chinese. Business travelers will find this especially useful as cross-cultural communication plays an important role, more than ever in the global world of business and travel. As you probably know, China is fast replacing the west as the most popular travel and business destination of the 21st century. In 2005 China was the world's 4th place, most traveled, with over 56 million visitors. There has been a geometric increase in the number of students, businessmen, job seekers and tourists heading towards China. With the upcoming Beijing Olympic games in 2008, the number of visitors is expected to quadruple before and after the games.

Products Produced In China

By Alan Solarsh

I just came back from China, looking for products from china, was my mission. I also wanted the price to be ridiculously cheap, and it all fell in to my lap. I found new products , at very affordable prices.

In actual fact, the prices were not just inexpensive they were ridiculous. Cheap does not mean that quality is hampered, it just means that they have the ability to make cheap Chinese product, not cheap bad quality products. Bad quality is unavoidable, but what is good quality for some people, is shocking quality for others.

The fallacy of having child labor working in the factories, otherwise known as sweat houses is in fact a fallacy, this is absolute rubbish. There is a huge government fine for breaking this law. Not even in the deep country where there are no people to police this law, is there any type of child labor. This may have been a past time acceptable practice, but now China has become more westernised, and probably civilized. But I do not believe in this rubbish, I think that this is what clever business people do to protect their investments they lie. But this is all rumor and not fact, the fact is buying products produced in china are cheap to say the least.

The price of products is cheap because of the quantity that they manufacture of a style, as we know mass production greatly reduces the cost of each item, because the price of the tools and machinery is amortized over the quantity of product produced from those tools and machinery.

If you are looking for products then I have some advice for you, use a guy I found on the internet, his Name is Steven Ulli. He speaks English and gets the concept of finding new innovative product produced in china.

Here are all his contact details.
