How to get things done in China
Article Abstract:
Foreigners should familiarize themselves with the way things are done in China.

The system is change-resistant and conservative, and authority is not delegated to the lower echelons of administration. Despite the difficulties entailed, using the right approach can achieve many tasks that appear at first glance to be impossible.
