Pickpocketing, an issue in any major city, seems to become a developing problem for Shanghai citizens in recent months - and we're not just talking from personal experience (though, sadly, some of us have become recent victims).
Seems like we may be looking forward to a visit from China's good buddy, Kim Jong-Il, during the 60th anniversary celebrations of the Chinese Communist Party. The Great Leader has allegedly accepted an invitation from Premier Wen Jiabao to join in on the fun. Previously, Wen was quoted telling North Korean officials that “We will ardently welcome Comrade Kim Jong-Il and senior officials of the Korean party and government to visit China at a convenient time.” Source: Channel News Asia
