>>20313215Yeah pretty sad state of affairs.
But to put it back in context, it was a decade ago, and back then $20 was a small fortune in China. As i said you could eat normal menus -plat de resistance + beer + dessert- in local restaurants (nothing fancy, where the locals are going, but still very good) for 3 bux average.
And cherry on top you could smoke inside and they were offering the cigs sometimes.
