Just a fun question I thought of.

    What do you think chances are of China granting asylum? That’s one of my ideas to get into China

      I’m not familiar with the process at all, and after a cursory search it doesn’t look very promising. But if you are interested in refugee status in the PRC I’d suggest asking a lawyer or someone experienced in that sort of thing.

      Anyway, best of luck to you. But the job route would probably be easier, if possible.

        I’m disabled, and I don’t have many options anyway. But thank you. I heard that China was now starting to turn away non-Chinese who wanted to teach English though.

          Ah, OK. The refugee route may be problematic as from what I read, they want to send most people with non-Chinese ancestry to a third country eventually. Though, I don’t know how true that is.

          Anyway, as for teaching jobs, there are many more than just English teaching positions and I’m still seeing lots of postings for non-Chinese available.

            I’ll try not to get my hopes up, but would you want to keep in touch if I have further questions?
