I admit, I don’t know what part of your ego is so starved that you feel compelled to troll on the internet anonymously behind a keyboard in the first place, but I can’t stop it and Fauna can’t either…unless she’s some sort of genius hacker (which I highly doubt) or just turns off commenting entirely (like ESWN). I reckon she’ll go on to ignoring you whenever she doesn’t feel like outwitting and exposing you, despite your attempts to provoke a response. I imagine she trusts most people here to see through you as well.

Of course, it is still unfortunate for everyone to have to put up with your immaturity and your promise to continually harass this website with new sock puppet fake identities. However, I’ve been here long enough to know you’re not the first and you won’t be the last. As before, we’ll just have to manage.

Anyway, have fun in Kunshan and Hong Kong. Enjoy one of those deliciously simple toasts with condensed milk for me. They’re wonderfully fattening. ;)

Arm wrestling is for fcuk da lu ren, who claims that he has a black belt, and we know he only arm wrestles when he is not surrounded by Black Americans in Los Angeles or thirty or so Chinese in Chengdu.

I will be taking a train （动车） from Nanjing to Kunshan, and back. From there, I will make my way to Hong Kong by Dragon Air. It’s a pretty tight schedule, so I shan’t be able to stop over in Shanghai. Anyway, thanks for your hand of friendship. As I correctly told Vtraveller, Chinese are quite polite and hospitable people, and I hope he is reading this.

Kai, you are an imbecile! I am a troll and I want to be a troll, a fucking troll. I don’t enjoy exchanging niceties with you or anybody. Don’t think that by straightening you panties and putting a human/humane face to your message, you’re going to change me. I will only disappear and come back in another incarnation. Look out for it, and spot the speech patterns. I think a fake name like Fauna might be good. Fauna vs Kai.

BTW, VTraveller, smickno is right. It’s generally pretty safe in most of China as long as you’re aware of your surroundings. I would only caution you to be wary of pickpockets around areas densely crowded by migrant workers such as train stations. Other than that, you’ll want to avoid possible scams by opportunists who, like smickno said, think its okay because you’re a rich foreigner who can spare the cash. Good luck and hope you have fun!

Forgot to directly address the gist of your concern. I have also travelled to the small towns/villages. I found lots of either very old people or very young children there. Those in the middle left for the big cities to work. So, I am not sure if you should be the one who’s afraid. (Qualifier: Maybe with the current economic situation, you might see them again, since they are now without a job and have returned)

As for the police, if you want to see them, you got to go to the police station. They are all very busy there, doing nothing. So, count it another of your unlucky day, if you meet one of them along the road.

I will be visiting some friends in Kunshan tomorrow, and I know I am safe, with or without my Chinese friends around.

I have travelled to almost all the major cities in China without getting mugged by the police. Like most Chinese, the police (being Chinese themselves) are very polite and hospitable towards foreigners. But call it your unlucky day if you come across one such policeman who tries to extort some money from you, thinking that you are white and therefore you must be rich and a few hundred yuan isn’t going to hurt you. It hardly happens, as far as I know.

Relax and enjoy China as much as I did, mate.
