Ms. Me,
I love that you used Hollywood and Politics as two examples. Ha! Yes, ILLEGAL descrimination does still happen in developed nations, but it is definitely NOT highly condoned like it is in China. Perfect example, how many foreigners are hired in China for their milky white face? Ex-pats who are not white and try to get a job in China for a Chinese company have struggled (based on this websites previous comments).

I may be a rare case, but I HATE being hired solely for what I look like (young white guy). I try to make a real difference in the Chinese company that I work for. I was fed a bunch of B.S. by the Chinese boss in the beginning in order to lure me into signing a contract. Now, I realize that I am just an over-paid advertisement that makes his company look "international." When you really want to make a difference, the paralysis is very frustrating. I feel cheap and used. I'm not going to renew the contract. So, if anyone is looking for a "do-nothing" high paid position and doesn't mind being exploited for your white face, then feel free to leave a comment and I will refer you to my boss who will need to fill my position in September.
