RE: The Curious Cat and Dalian China's Public Exercise Equipment

in #steemmeow8 years ago

If my history memory isn't wrong. I believe that that encouragement to exercise from the government is something that was passed down from not-so-long-ago when China was still Communist China. Something to do with the writings in "Das Kapital" about being fat is capitalist I guess???

But then when something works, it works. I just wish my government will make more parks. (We have about 10 mega malls coming up across Malaysia, 0 parks, what a bummer).

Maybe it is really high time for me to try my luck in China. After all, I speak the language albeit with a heavy Malaysian-Chinese accent.

It's funny isn't it, my ancestors escape China in search of opportunities almost 200 years ago. But now I'm flirting with the idea of going back to China... In search of opportunities.

Sort:  

Seriously. Many Chines people left here at some point and many are returning for a better life. Who would have thought 20 years ago people would come here for money and opportunity. Don't worry about the language many Chinese speak English.

What type of job would you want?

Well, I'm just exploring options to be honest. As I feel that my only edge is being able to speak in English (oddly enough, English happens to be my first language, although I can still speak comfortably I in Mandarin). I have experience teaching English to primary students (7-12 years old), and is currently under an internship as a drone pilot (exciting stuff!!)

Ultimately, I'm trying develope my writing and coding skills. THANK HEAVENS FOR STEEM!! So yea, just seeking opportunities while creating my own.

Drone Pilot would be so fun. Speaking Chinese is not a required to teach English, they usually prefer you don't. lol Do share some drone pilot stories when you got em.

Thanks for the idea!!! Oooooo i actually do have one already. I'll get to writing and digging up pictures. haha

By the way are you teaching in a private or government school?
