We hope this isn’t a trend. On October 10, just east of the community health center in a courtyard in Beijing’s Daxing District, according to Sohu, two rings were set up to stage a day of dogfighting. Hundreds of onlookers and dozens of gamblers were ringside, and up to 20,000 200,000 yuan’s worth of bets were... Read more »Read more »
Uh oh, there’s that word again: vulgar. As reported by Hong Kong Daily News via Xinhua, a set of chairs that recently appeared in Suzhou, Jiangsu province’s Jinji (Golden Chicken) Lakeside has attracted controversy.
