I tried to inform the other teachers that they are now on the immigration blacklist, I only found out when I went for a new visa at the PSB office, but the school owner threatened me and said I was trying to ruin her business.

ironman510, I've just noticed your comment about Hampson. They must have busted several schools. K12 was busted after a former disgruntled teacher, probably exploited in the same way-promise of 'z' visa and so on, called the police. The police who busted us were corrupt and took our passports for over a week and during that time several bank accounts were opened in my name but not by me. It seems quite obvious that they used our passports for who knows what!

It was K12 American Academy in Shekou and Qilin that got busted on the 6th of August. The police took four of us to the station, not just one. I was one of them and have since left China. However, the other three teachers continue to work illegally in the same school. Please be warned that K12 has now been busted twice in the last 12 months.

lol, the cop in the photo seems a little taken aback by the foreigner throwing up his hands in surrender. No wander they hate dealing with us, we do things that a chinese person would never dream of.

Looks like the policeman is trying to tell the foreigner to calm down and stop acting like a clown. After all, he's not in class teaching!

after reading 2 comments from you i really believe you hate all foreigners... clearly the foreigner on the picture was joking around and the policeman was smiling and took the joke.

I agree, he was just enjoying the moment, because all cops are jokes. I would have had a good time trying some jokes with him, maybe some Chinglish. Wo-bu-zhi-konw. Ni-know-ma? lol
