Posted on: To Tip or Not to Tip

I like tipping people when they don't expect it. Most of the times they were happy about it. Also I think in cities like Beijing where there are many foreigners people are getting use to it.

I once tipped a taxi driver in Beijing 100 RMB and he gave me a coupon for a tea house worth 90 RMB or something. I'd never would've thought of going there, but in the end it was great :)

Also I usually said "wo gey ni" when they were looking at me surprised and so far it has worked pretty well.

Also, today on CCTV4 I saw Shenrong Shi (the CEO of Suntech, the largest solar panel manufacturer in China and probably in the world) sitting right next to Hu Jintao during a photo session.

Besides BYD (Build your dreams) is set to be the largest manufacturer of electric autos. (Warren Buffet is a major shareholder there)

The good thing about the Chinese government is, there's less talk and more action on measures to counter global warming. And really, once it's decided it's implemented the next day.
