There have been raids by Immigration police. How is the situation in your province?
Can someone confirm that one needs to return to one's home country to apply for a B-Visa? In addition, that one needs a labour contract to get such a Visa? (Does that mean that language centers cannot wait a few weeks before starting the WP process?)
A colleague did his Visa run to Laos. That was in January - and Laos wasn't his home country. Nor did he have a labour contract. I'm stymied.
This sounds like a nightmare for employers. No more probationary periods? cost of WP hassle before someone even flies over to start working?!?
I think I'll opt out and return as a genuine tourist... What's your take?
ESL - crackdown in Quang Ninh province a sign of things to come?

I am not a teacher and live in NT. No problems there, where the paper works are done. A few month ago I had to go some some Labour guy. He only did want to know, why we have a such a "high" number of foreigners employed. I explained short a few of the reasons and next day he stamped the the new work permit.
Nothing else needed. There are no problems for employers to hire a foreigner if all papers of the company are fine AND taxes paid.
