Are you looking forward to this? I still remember one of my cousin asked me whether am I going to get a Chinese PR. China is a developing country and it might benefit me in the future. First of all, I’m not going to stay in China for good, so to me, and mayb for most of us Expats, it is totally unnecessary. Furthermore, China has lots of needless rules and regulations that can make business life hard here but work permits and visas are easy.

If you plan to get one, go here. Since 2004, more then 400 foreigners have acquire the Chinese PR. Having a PR enables you to work or doing business in China for 5 years without a visa.
