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!!!

San Salvador, El Salvador

You are looking at San Salvador in El Salvador. The city has a population of 2100000 residents. It is located on -89.00 degrees longitude, and 7,713.70 latitude.

San Salvador , General info:
7/10

San Salvador is the capital city of the nation of El Salvador. The valley where it is located was earlier known as "El Valle de las Hamacas" because of its high seismic activity. San Salvador is the second largest city in Central America.

San Salvador is a powerhouse - the cultural and cosmopolitan heart of the country.it abounds with museums, cultural centers, bars and cafes. Six-lane avenues and glittery malls keep the city buzzing. What San Salvador lacks in colonial grandeur, it makes up for in class and personality. Wander through the Teatro Nacional, with its red velvet opulence and sensuous mural, or around one of the city's five markets; the interesting Mercado Ex-Cuartel has handicrafts, hand-woven textiles and ceramics.

San Salvador , Cheap stuff:
8/10

San Salvador is pretty cheap city, everything is affordable. Hotels and restaurants are cheap.

San Salvador , Different stuff:
10/10

Pollution remains one of the city's biggest problems. Located in a valley, San Salvador is a perfect pollution trap. Fueling this, the city struggles with an increasing traffic problem. New highways and arterial roads offer some relief. According to a study by the United Nations, El Salvador was ranked as the second worst polluter of carbon dioxide emissions in Central America.

San Salvador , Don't miss:
9/10

The national fiesta patronal (patron saint festival) is celebrated during the first week of August. Schools, government offices and most businesses close (as they do for all public holidays), and everyone goes on vacation. Religious processions, street fairs and colorful parades are held throughout the country, the celebration in San Salvador is the largest and the best.

San Salvador , Food:
10/10

The restaurant scene in San Salvador is influenced by many different cultures. food options include Italian, Korean, Japanese, French, Chilean, American, Peruvian, Mexican, Spanish, Middle Eastern, German, Chinese, Argentinian and others. Local food options include Tipicos Margot where one can purchase the famous Salvadoran Pupusas. Perhaps the biggest indictment against the quality of the San Salvador restaurant scene however is the sheer number of chain restaurants.

San Salvador , Hotels:
8/10

There are four main zones for accommodations: the city center (cheap, but a bit sketchy at night), Parque Cuscatlán (reasonably priced and much safer), Boulevard de los Héroes (the only place for hostels) and the area around Colonía Escalón and Zona Rosa (top-end, high-rise).

San Salvador , Safety:
9/10

San Salvador has had a history of violence. San Salvador was considered the most dangerous city in the world in 1992. Since the end of the civil war in 1992 San Salvador has not seen a reduction in crime rates. Today San Salvador, and El Salvador in general, experience some of the highest homicide rates in the world, it is also considered an epicenter of the gang crisis. Don't walk on streets that look abandoned and dark. Use only licensed taxis or rent a car. Walk in tourist areas.
