As with most stuff in Asia, chances of success at getting something done favorably can depend largely on how good your gifts/bribes are.

Well that certainly helps to explain why the Chinese have such a pilot shortage.

You have to use economics to overcome all the negative aspects of working over there, and from what my friends who work over there say, it isn't worth it. In fact, many who took jobs in the Middle East making more than some Captains make here are still trying to get on with a legacy in the states.



Which ME airline pays their captains more than Delta captains ?
Are you kidding ?
Their captains make less than the Delta First Officers and by far
