100,000 foreigners come to work in China

From People’s Daily Online: “The number of foreigners coming to work in China has increased dramatically in recent years. Statistics from relevant departments show that at present there are approximately 100,000 such workers. In the first 11 months of 2004, Shanghai approved applications from 10,000 foreigners for work in the city, while the number of applicants approved by Beijing increased by 30 percent over 2003. According to an official with the labor department, the actual number was far greater than the said figure due to the statistical problems.”
