SHANGHAI SNAPSHOT

PARKING
An online parking information system has been launched in Shanghai to assist some two million drivers.
www.jt.sh.cn (Chinese only).

MINIMUM WAGE
Due to the great gap in wealth between the developed cities on the coast and the impoverished inland, China has no national minimum wage. According to Xinhua News Agency, the minimum hourly wage for part-time workers in Shanghai went up from RMB 5.5 to 6 (including migrant workers and casual labourers).
6 RMB = 0.60 EUR.

DATING
Jinglinggirl.com targets men who are too busy or shy to meet women: for a membership of RMB 300, a "genius girl" can be hired to help facilitate introductions, by accompanying men to social events.
