Charlie wrote about the importance of the working day in China. The young woman at the information booth at the airport was reading a book. We asked what it was. She said it was about health. Later, she explained that she was worried that she was destroying her health by working 12 hours a day six days a week. At the hotel, the young women spoke about the long hours. Students working part time told us the same story.
In some ways, the country is making great strides; in others, they are eating their own people. I am still trying to get a handle on it. Charlie is also correct. From what I gather, China has some wonderful laws -- honored more in the breach. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail michael at ecst.csuchico.edu michaelperelman.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
