Table cleaning.

China is a nice country . I m from western Europe . You people welcome the foreigners .
A foreigner in china feel like he is a toy . Everybody laugh or joke a bit with you when he see
you . And ask you about your way of live , show interest in your country .
And this country is so safe at night , it’s a precious gift . You can walk at night , it’s safe . In
Europe there is danger at night in some suburbs .
But there is something i would like to tell :

I come from western Europe and i would like to share some techniques with you .

Is china angry with the wash powder and the liquid soap and the sponge ?

I come from a country side place . The people in my home town also don’t clean correctly the
table .
Here in china most of the restaurants tables are not clean enough even after the service people
clean them .

Because they use an old towel , and only water to clean the table in the restaurant . And it
doesn’t clean enough . It ‘s still stick .
There is still a layer of fat and dirty on the table .
However It’s easy to take it off .

The water doesn’t take off the fat . Only the soap and the wash powder can do that .

Then don’t be upset , i will tell you , like i told the people of my country side , what to do .
For cleaning a table . You have to take a sponge , put only a bit liquid soap on it , or a bit wash
powder , flush some water on your sponge , and clean your table .
Then this table is clean now , but there is a layer of soap on the table now .

Then rinse it under the tap . That means under the tap press the sponge in your hand , that it
take off the dirt that was caught in this sponge , and soak up new clean water into it .
Once your sponge is half full with new water , then use it to take off the layer of soap , or wash
powder that remains on the table .

Now you have a beautiful table , fresh . You can put your arm on it , you will fell fresh . This
table don’t stick any more .

You can enjoy the gorgeous spicy food .
Your four meal are waiting for you . It's time to practice the mandarin and the English with funny mistakes .

Actually it's not. I know two girls who have been raped in China walking alone at night. Rape is actually quite common here but it's always to Chinese girls and it doesn't make the news unless the girl stabs one of hte attackers in the throat with a knife. I agree this country is very safe for foreigners but not so much for Chinese. It's one of the strange things about this country but also one of the good things for foreigners I guess....

haha yeah I've also found this a bit strange. That's why if food hits the table in China you NEVER eat it, people will think it's dirty (it is). But such is life! Just need to get good with Chopsticks haha

yes so is it ? i v heard others stories not the kind dangerous . yes you come from canada . so it's the same safe level like here .
In europe we have people from others countries , from another continent and they don't behave always well . And at night in suburbs , the miniskirts have to be carreful not walking alone. In any cases far more dangerous as big city in china .


i just notice that in railway station and in large avenues , theire is xinjiang theft . they operate always two together . One look for the bag . and another stay 10 meters behind to help his friend thief if he get caught . Ready to fight the one that catch his friend . I saw quite a lot of them . In the railway station tens of them . I was thinking there is so many cameras there , and surely they sure come every day .

It's not "XinJiang theft", though the government claims it is, there are thieves from all over China...

Sorry just really hate how the China always pretends all the thieves are XinJiang ren...

the two that began to touch my bag in pudong century avenue , they were xinjiang theft .
the one that i caught near pudong babaiban he was a xinjiang people also .
and the others that sell mobiles hidding inside their coat in century avenue pudong dongchang lu also xinjiang people .
but sure they are also theft in china that are chinese . like every country .

for the table if some people want that i show them . I m in Sh

uberche in which city are you ?

I've had a XinJiang guy steal my phone, a Han guy steal my Camera and a guy who looked Han but who knows for sure try to steal a friend's wallet.

I'm in Beijing.

Yep, the sponge is good, but most waiters in the restaurant get used to use the twoel unless their boss ask them change to sponge.

No idea what that means

in europe, oe in another country , i always use a lock that connect the 2 zips hole of the bag . for the backpack or the like computer bag with walet and magazines on it .. it's this kind of lock that have the same appearence as the mountain climbers . they are in aluminium cost 4 yuan . it's not realy a lock with a key it's more a buckle .
so the thief can't do it in 5 second .
this buckle make it more difficult for him . he would need 20 seconds instead of 5 .
so it would be too more risk for him .

always a buckle that connect the two zip or that stop the zip .

i m in shanghai . ubrech you seems to know about china .
do you know if a foreigner can drive a gas scooter in china without a driving licence . not the electric kind . the real one gas . the sellers told me the complete opposite .
it seems that under 50 cc you don't need any papers .
it seems also that the scooters seller sell 35 cc that in fact are far bigger .
And it seems also that a lot of local peoples have the 80cc and the 100cc . but i m not completely sure they have a driving license .

if you can answear that you are a pro.

many thieves are from different provinces of China. Recent years, thieves from Xinjiang are scattering aroung China. i find many of them are children.

My friend put camera in his backpack and walkedin the street. Two xinjiang children followed him and once touched his backpack three times. lucky. they didn't succeeded in stealing the camera thought the back had been opened. my friend finnaly relized that and put the packback in the front.

my colleague went to the wholesale market, several xinjiang chidlren stole his camera and hided the camara, but still stayed near my colleague. and when my colleague realized his camera was lost and he guessed the xinjiang children stole it. So he went close to the xinjiang Children and asked the camera back in the xinjiang langauage. the xinjiang children finnaly immediately gave the camera back to my colleagure, saying sorry! it's a mistake. my Colleague is Han but he is from xinjiang.

I haven't met thieves from xinjiang but other places. i often see the thieves working on the bus or just near the bus gate when people get on the bus.

Electric no license is needed, last I checked if it has gas and over 50 cc you need a license. but it will depend where you are. Shanghai I don't know.

i m interested in below 50 because they may be don't need licenses .
some shops said you don't need licenses for gas scooters below 50cc ,
others shops said you need one licence , a diferent license but still
a license , even for the below 50 cc . not clear , need more intel .
