New Vancouver route

Marketing — Wed, 23 May 2012 02:30:18 +0000

On Friday the 18th May, it is announced by China’s Sichuan Airlines that flights will commence to operate flights to Vancouver three times a week starting 22nd June. This will be the first outing to the North American market.

The flight includes a stopover in Shenyang, located in the North-East of Liaoning province. With this, the tourism traffic between Canada and China will increase the service quality among the competing Chinese Airlines like Air China, Chine Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines and make the ticket prices cheaper, providing a gateway to the students, immigrants and travellers to Canada. On the other side, more Canadian travellers are encouraged to visit China more frequently. The increased flights will boost tourism as well as give travellers a greater choice which will have a significant impact on the economy.

Popular Medical Facilities in Shenzhen

Marketing — Mon, 14 May 2012 06:00:17 +0000

Shenzhen People’s Hospital 深圳人民医院
Shenzhen People’s Hospital has a complex covering 320,000 square meters that was designed by the Scandinavian architects Arkitema and Biad. The architecture is certainly nice, but most expats are concerned with what is inside the arches. Luckily, Shenzhen People’s Hospital is a first-class hospital that “possesses the latest and most advanced facilities in the Chinese hospital sector.” Visitors here will find it thoroughly modern and will be happy to know that the trade in aborted foetuses stopped sometime during the 1990s.

Beijing University Shenzhen Hospital 北京大学深圳医院
Formerly Shenzhen Central Hospital, Beijing University Shenzhen Hospital is “the clinical, teaching and research base of… the Medical Centre of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology”. It is also one of five extension hospitals of Peking University Health and Science Centre, which was founded in 1903. What this means is that some of China’s best medical minds collaborate here, making for a cutting-edge facility. It is the most frequently visited hospital by expats in Shenzhen.

Nanshan Hospital 南山医院
With over 1,200 beds and 1,000 employees, Nanshan hospital is the biggest in western Shenzhen. Each of its rooms comes with a television, a TV, and a DVD player, and while the hospital itself does not sell any bootlegged DVDs, there is almost certainly a guy within a block of the hospital who does. Nanshan hospital has a neurosurgery department staffed by 11 doctors, and the biotechnology company Beike Biotech carries out a number of different procedures here using stem cells that people have travelled from all over the world to participate in. There is also an unsubstantiated claim that Nanshan Hospital has “very good western and Chinese food,” though it remains to be seen whether they have the Usual Speculation Loofah on offer or not.
