Michael Walker, actually seiarlas already have doubled the past 6 years! At least in manufacturing they have, for high skilled operators, but office staff as well. I am in Suzhou, I set up the firm in 2004, left end of 2010.In 2005 if you wanted operators, accountants, loads of people would show up for an interview. Nowadays you get 6 potential operators at the door in stead of 50; and 2 accountants in stead of 15 5 or 6 years ago!An apartment in Suzhou SIP cost you 6500RMB/m2 in 2006; they go for 17-18000/m2 today!And don't forget inflation: 6% yoy.Moreover: a pack of milk will cost you 9.5RMB for 1liter, in Germany and Holland we pay 5RMB max! So China is double the price of EU and yes, both countries are heavily subsidized! So who is fooling who and who is profiting big-time here?I purchase fabrication parts and sub-assemblies to export to the EU and I visit suppliers and manufacturers all over China. They all face the same problem that staff keeps asking for wage increase every week! No matter in Shenzhen, Wenzhou, Ningbo, Suzhou, Shandong. China cheap? No way!!!

Philadelphia is the largest city in Pennsylvania and the sixth most populous city in the United States. It is the 5th largest metropolitan area by population in the United States, and the fourth largest consumer media market as ranked by the Neilsen Media Research Co.

If you are near center city, a little known attraction is the observatory deck atop city hall. The observatory deck is directly under the William Penn stautue. You can actually look up through an open window at him and really get a sense of how big he is. I have taken people that grew up in Philly there and they never knew it existed. It is free and the hours are Mon.-Fri. from 9:30 am-4:30 pm with tours occuring every 15 minutes (no weekends). So the hours are a little funny but it is WELL worth it if your schedule permits it.

Also since you will be in the area, another small known attraction is the Wanamaker Organ in Lord and Taylor. Lord and Taylor is kaddy corner across the street from city hall on the southeast corner. The organ is a massive 30,000-pipe organ which has been said to be the largest in the world. They have daily (FREE!) shows at noon and 5pm (7pm on Wednesday). There is a nice Café Americanstyle that overlooks the scene from a third floor terrace.

Center City Philadelphia is a friendly and diverse place. Most people will gladly point you in the right direction, even if they only work in the city. Center City is generally bordered by the Delaware River on the East, Spring Garden Street on the North, the Schuylkill (Skoo - cul) River on the West and South Street on the South. If you stay within those boundaries, you're pretty safe.
