Costa Rica Heaven

Welcome to the April 19, 2010 edition of china carnival. We have 6 post today (one might be broken). Some highlights: Tom compares hard working Chinese workers in Latin-Timed Costa Rica; Zhu tells her “crazy” job experience in Hong Kong when she was only 18; Mike shares three online resources for learning Chinese. Please enjoy!
Tom Ranieri presents Chinese in Costa Rica posted at Crrtravel.com, saying, “This is where I am so very impressed with the Chinese. The crew brought in for the new Stadium is two months ahead of schedule. To have the stadium finished on time is unheard of but to have it done two months ahead of time is amazing (almost makes me wonder if they are missing any screws and bolts?)”

Culture

Mike presents 3 of the Best Free Online Resources for Learning Chinese posted at ChineseForSmartPeople.com, saying, “Here are 3 great free online resources for learning Chinese! I use these time saving, helpful and pretty damn awesome tools almost everyday. Good resources for studying Chinese are often hard to find, but these are three of the best, enjoy!”

Zhu presents Call Me (Not) | Correr Es Mi Destino posted at Correr Es Mi Destino, saying, “I then got my first job in Hong Kong. My biggest challenge wasn’t being an 18 years old lost in Tsimshatshui: it was to handle my daily duties at Takyi company. I was an office worker, a baby one. I could barely switch on a computer at that time but I had the language skills. So they let me learn.”
