Finnish Business Councils

I was invited to a meeting yesterday by the Finnish Business Councils to heard about a presentation on Employee Branding. It was about how you brand your company well so that you can find talented and suitable employees. If a company has a bad reputation it will not find good labor etc etc. But branding in China....hmm, the only thing people think about here is money, little matter of what they do. But that's because of the lack of social security and what your own parents will do when they are old and quit working. The "pension" here is very very low unless you have been working for the government a long time in a high position. This is the biggest concern for almost all people here.Anyway, I met some nice new people there and had Lonkero at the restaurant! For you who don't know what it is: Long drink with Gin and Grape 5.5%. Only costs 2,5 euros here, half price from Finland and it's imported AAAAAALL the way, wonder how that works?

Later in the evening I got Lasagna with CHOCOLATE sauce, whatta f....?
China is trying to control the smoking, before you could smoke ANYWHERE here. Now they have started putting up signs everywhere. "Beijing Patriotic Health Campaign Committee" hahaha
