It also depends on what type of place you wanna live
IMO Shanghai >>>>> new jersey
for opportunities shanghai is really good, there are lots of cool activities the school offers, and I think its worth it to explore the world a bit
but it might be personal bias since I live in shanghai rn
plus shanghai is extremely safe, you could walk out at midnight with no problems
and I believe you can transfer to different campuses if u need
and IMO shanghai weather is quite manageable. I liked the weather here better than pennsylvania since the cold here is humid cold

As a Canadian-Chinese who lived in China for almost her entire life,, my advise is get away from China. Things are really unstable there and although the chances are pretty uncertain, one little political change can really impact your entire life.

As a Canadian-Chinese who lived in China for almost her entire life,, my advise ...
I've never felt this
Its not unstable at all imo
especially shanghai, a global city
uncut plaza
It's probably because of the industry of your parents & your city
I lived in Beijing & my mom does finance. A lot of the companies are already leaving market
supple phoenix
Shanghai is vastly different from beijing
uncut plaza
But the country is the same country
supple phoenix
even as a country, nothing bad really has happened
doesn't really affect the foreigners who live there
uncut plaza
We're not talking what has happened though. It's better to think about what will happen.
I mean, it's just my thoughts the the country that I've been living in
supple phoenix
I doubt anything will happen
and even if it does, you won't get impacted
there are so many internationals living here
China isn't north korea
its not as bad as people always say
the western news messes up all the perceptions
uncut plaza
I lived in China for 15 years as an "international" (I hold Canadian citizenship) I don't get my perceptions from western news.
supple phoenix
I currently live here
and its very different
from the western news
or any other perceptions
uncut plaza
What makes you think all I know is from western news lmao
supple phoenix
if you live in a western country, all you get is western news
uncut plaza
Yes and if you currently live in China all you get is Chinese propaganda
we're really not that different, according to you then
supple phoenix
all governments do propaganda and have issues
the difference is who can talk about it openly
thats the only difference
uncut plaza
Exactly. Have you talked about China & Xi negatively like how Americans can talk about Trump in the States? Making memes in China? It's a communist country after all
supple phoenix
yea, but you can talk about it privately
uncut plaza
You can talk about everything private in the States too. Why can't I express my opinions publicly in China? Because it's not a free country.
Let's let OP decide. I was just here offering my experience and thoughts. It's okay if you don't agree anyways. Not trying to persuade anyone in the first place.
supple phoenix
sure
But trust me, most of the media on China tries to portray it negatively. This country is amazing and has a lot to offer in experience and opportunity. Shanghai is one of the biggest and most culturally diverse places on the world. You'll be in a place safer than most American cities. If you got any questions about shanghai, you can ask me.
