a warning about china:
apparently the chinese government has a new enemy: the lonely planet! yesterday i entered china again, and in the castody (meches) my book was taken, and no matter how hard i tried to explain to them that i really need the book, it didn`t help! they also had 3 more lonely planets!!! the ''reason'': it`s a political book, because there`s a map of china, and taiwan is colored in a different color! and to make thing worse - they took my book, which even wasn`t the lonely planet, although the regulation is supposed to reffer only to the lonely! be careful! btw - is any of the "locals" here knows to whom can i complain about it? if possible? maybe the embassy? the tourism office? what can i do? p.s aMor - i'm posting it also in asia forum, because there are more ppl who live in china, so maybe they'll have some creative ideas...
