Technological advances make remote work and virtual teams more feasible. Current business processes are allowing companies to mix and match services much easier than ever.

Outsourcing is no longer a privilege for big multinational companies. BPOVIA provides small business and even individuals an easy and affordable way to enjoy the benefits of outsourcing just like fortune 500 companies.

1 venue for workplace: A lot of virtual assistants are home-based freelancers.

2 less recruitment costs: face-to-face interview might be skipped; Generally speaking, one assistant has to do multi-types of work ranging from data entry to WordPress design.

3 “thrifty” on communicational cost: they are cautious about extra expenditure generated by long phone calls and video conference.

Disadvantages caused by above factors such as project delay, failure in communication and lack of focus will generate extra cost for clients, namely, you have to spend more time in order to achieve expected results.

However, some virtual assistance service providers, like Bpovia, are dedicated to providing first-rate service rather than participating in price biding competition. Our services are better with reasonable price. We boast 3 advantages over other companies:

1 Thanks to team work and project based cooperation, we achieve higher efficiency with each one doing the task he or she is good at. For instance, VAs take care of clients; graphic designers work on innovative creation and web programmers focus on site construction and maintenance.

2 Because we work together in the office building, Bpovia is more of a well-structured company rather than a group of home-based freelancers.

3 With Skype, international phone line and video conference operating simultaneously, effective and timely communication with our clients becomes our prestigious advantage.

As the Chinese proverb goes, Cheapness bargains no fine goods; fine goods are not cheap. It is cost performance ratio that rules. And Bpovia is just the kind of provider you are looking for.

If webs in the 90s mainly appealed to client, webs in 21^st century target at search engines. Alexa statistics show that show that among top 10 websites in the world, search engines take a large share with Google ranked 1^st , live.com 5^th , baidu.com 8^th. The power of keyboard is rising so quickly that any ambitious website could not overlook it. It is high time that one did SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to attract search engines’ attention.

So how does SEO work and what’s its commercial value? Google will crawl your blog to find contents and keywords and when Google finished crawling through your blog, the content from your blog will get indexed in a large database where researchers can retrieve your content by searching with keywords using the Google search engine. By adding relevant keywords in your articles, SEO try to achieve the highest position rank possible. SEO also establish back links which will drastically help you to achieve a higher Google page rank. Higher ranking means more business opportunity since almost every netizen use search engine to find information. SEO can:

1. Appeal to potential client using search engine to visit your site thus getting their target goods on your site.
2. If not selling goods yourself, you can take advantage of clickstream to recommend business partners.
3. Bulks of traffic volume can let more people know your brand and cooperate image thus achieving publicity success.
4. Clickstream and ranking are indexes of authority and potential of a site. The more visitors you get, the easier you’ll get sponsorship by advertising agencies.

In one word, SEO is a great promoter of business opportunity. The earlier you realize the commercial value of keyboard, the more you will reap from search engines.

On Friday, the health officials said that the program will begin on Nov 16.

The program means the capital is the first city in China who is going to inoculate all of its registered permanent residents, some 12 million people.

The 12 million vaccinations is about one fifth of total inoculations nationally in China by the end of this year.

Till Nov 6, 2009, Beijing had inoculated 440,000 residents. Most of them were students and people who worked in important service departments. But interest in vaccination has varied.

A medical worker surnamed Liu who worked for Beijing Beanstalk International Bilingual School said that there were less than 20 percent of students who had signed up for the inoculation. The school has, include both elementary and secondary school, more than 300 students from 20 countries worldwide.

She added many of the parents of international students do not trust the quality of the Chinese made vaccines.

The vaccine has been tried and tested and had proven effective with little and harmless side effect, said Zhao Tao, director of the emergency response office under the Beijing Health Bureau. So far, the H1N1 vaccination program nationwide has arrived over 5 million.

However, Zhao emphasized all the choices will be respected.

Some 402 clinics will be opened across the city from Nov 16 to Dec 13, during the whole extended vaccination program. People will be able to get their free shots any available day before the end of the program.

Till now, the injections could only be used to people younger than 60.

Zhan said non-Beijiners living temporarily in the city who worked in important public service departments in the city could also be able to get their free shots.

Besides 12 million official residents, there are around 5 million people in Beijing who do not have a hukou. For them, the chance to have inoculation is slim. The pandemic has caused some 52,000 people in sickness, killed 16, in mainland China.

The way of recording H1N1 deaths will change, the ministry announced on Nov 6, 2009.

Under the new rules, people who appear to be cured of H1N1 but who die of preexisting conditions and of mixed flu virus infections, including the H1N1 strain, will be counted as H1N1 deaths.

Fend Zijina, director of the emergency response department at the Chinese Centers of Disease Prevention and Control, said that it is in line with international practice and is more accurate in reflecting the pandemic situation here in China.

As China’s largest hi-tech breeding nest, Z-park had enjoyed several policies to enhance its advancement, no matter for stock options or financial reform. Moreover, these supportive policies can be endeavored for a whole decade.

The State Council also announced a statement that the scientific and technological pilot programs could be carried out. That included the universities and colleges and research institutes which would be settled within the park. Those small- and medium-sized enterprises engaged in scientific and technological activities would also enjoy a loan support from the bank, which is encouraged by the government.

New industries participating in major national scientific and technological projects, especially in areas like electronics, biopharmaceuticals, aviation and space, new materials, clean energy, modern agriculture and pollution reduction would primarily be supported.

Liu He, deputy director of the Office of the Central Leading Group on Finance and Economy, said the need of the hour is to provide vocational training and education for the migrant workers. “This is not only about employment but also something that has severe social implications,” Liu said in an exclusive interview on March 20, 2009. He said if the problems of migrant workers are not solved well, the efforts to speed up economic development may be greatly weakened.

China has lately launched the 4-trillion-yuan stimulus package and 10 other programs to help industrial sectors to cope with the current financial crisis. According to a rough estimate, there have been nearly 20 million jobless workers since the crisis. Liu said China needs millions of skilled workers to translate the programs on paper into reality and hone the competitiveness of the industrial and manufacturing sectors. According to Liu He, the major problem for China has been an acute shortage of skilled workers.

Since many factories were shut down because of the current financial crisis, millions of workers, who used to make their living in the coastal factories which produce export goods, found themselves out of job. The biggest problem for many migrant workers is that they don’t have enough money to set up small businesses or to farm in their hometowns.

Liu warned that severe social problem will occur if we don’t take a serious view of the employment problem. Many migrant workers might find it hard to get their previous job since consumers across the world are spending less and trade protectionism is increasing in the meantime. Liu said the current employment pressure could be eased in the short term if the Chinese government is able to encourage some of the migrant workers to return to their hometown to start farming by providing them with subsidies and professional training.

Many factories in China are also in an embarrassing situation that they produce much more than the consumers’ demand. Liu said this makes it hard to open new factories and create more jobs.

Liu said we ought to find some strategic arrangements if we are to solve the migrant problem in the long run. He said the strategic arrangement should be centered on revising China’s industry and income distribution policy. The government should keep on to assist labor-intensive industries and to increase domestic consumption to create more jobs for migrant workers.

Furthermore, the urbanization rate of China is around 45% and every year about 230 million migrants are moving between cities and their rural homes. Migrant workers should be provided with urban household registration rights and the same social welfare as urban residents.

Premier Wen Jiabao said in his work report to the National People’s Congress in early March that the government would take quick measures to provide farmers and migrant workers with training as well as social security benefits.

In Liu’s opinion, the government’s goal of achieving 8% economic growth in 2009 depends largely on three aspects: global trade protectionism, job prospects for migrant workers and the severity of the financial crisis. He said these three problems are closely interrelated with each other.

Liu said Free trade is a gospel for the growth of both China and the rest of the world. He said many countries have agreed on free trade since the financial crisis unfolded, but in fact they focus on trade balance and usually encourage protectionism.

Although the worldwide recession has dominated globalization era, Liu said it is not beneficial to strive for a single country-based trade balance or even trade surplus. According to Liu, such a scenario would be retrogressive for global development and also have negative effects in rebuilding a new international financial order.

Liu said some countries are far too busy with stimulus packages instead of making efforts to analyze the causes and lessons of the financial crisis. He warned that the crisis might be followed by a global inflation of prices, the same as the Great Depression from 1929 to 1933.

Liu said most of the developed countries are lacking in new growth policies often needed to spur the real economy. He said there might be no effective global partnership in the coming decade, and the potential risks of ups and downs also exist. In this case, we should be prepared for the financial crisis to last longer than what we have expected.

According to a more in-depth analysis of the figures, it was also Shandong’s 17th consecutive year of posting a double-digit growth, the province’s per capita GDP also firstly surpassed the 30,000-yuan mark.

Nevertheless, the provincial government is not taking the impressive figures as a mandate for relaxing their drive for economic expansion. On the contrary, it has released ambitious plans to sustain development across the whole province, particularly focusing on boosting the under-performing regions in Yellow River Delta and southern Shandong.

At present, some 72 percent of Shandong’s GDP is contributed by the province’s major cities like Jinan, Qingdao, Yantai and Weihai. Under the local government’s new strategy, growth of 10 major cities in Shandong will continue to be nurtured, though additional resources will be diverted into supporting the economically unsuccessful areas.

Even though they currently make comparatively small contributions to the province’s overall GDP, the local government has identified huge potential for future development among the natural resources and fine ecological balance in both the Yellow River area and the south of the province. Rich Coal reserves have already been identified in southern Shandong, whereas programs are already under way to develop the Yellow River Delta into both the nation’s second largest oilfield and one of most expansive wetland areas in China.

According to Jiang Daming, the governor of Shandong, the new development strategy will place an emphasis on integrating the major cities surrounding the provincial capital Jinan into a closely-linked city cluster, as well as developing a high-end manufacturing industrial zone in the eastern areas. The strategy also includes programs of building an ecologically-friendly economic zone in the Yellow River Delta and stepping up the development of the iron and steel industry in Rizhao, a port city in southern Shandong.

Jiang said a budget of 1.6 trillion yuan had already been earmarked to initiate the scheme with a majority of it being allocated to an infrastructure construction program. In spite of the ongoing uncertainties in global financial markets, the investment aims at ensuring the province maintains an annual GDP growth of at least 10 percent.

The program of urban facility construction, part of the initiative, will be accelerated in the two major cities of Jinan and Qingdao. 335 key construction projects, or a combined investment of 337.4 billion yuan, are expected to start in Qingdao alone in 2009. Another 204 projects, involving a total investment of around 166.1 billion yuan, are planned for Jinan. Furthermore, some 53 billion yuan will be used to improve port facilities in Qingdao, Yantai, Rizhao, Weihai and Jining. Meanwhile, 167.3 billion yuan will be invested in improving road and rail transportation facilities away from the cities, with the total length of railways in Shandong expected to reach 5,500 km by 2015.

As part of the national development plan, the proposed development of ecological-friendly economic zone in Yellow River Delta will also receive some 100 billion yuan of investment in 2009.

Best Life, a life style magazine, carried out the survey, interviewing 792 wealthy Chinese in 62 cities from 27 provinces with the help of local chambers of commerce. The interviewed people were private entrepreneurs possessing property of over 10 million Yuan, i.e. 1.4 million dollars. The magazine said in June, over four fifths of the interviewed also remarked that in the country the financial disparity between rich and poor was too large.

On June 17th, Li Wei, director of the social development at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), told China Daily, “In the last few years, the great disparity between rich and poor in China has become self-evident.” He said, “We have noticed this phenomenon in research time and again, so it is understandable that the rich also feel this way.”

The interviewed in the latest survey had different definitions for the upper class. Some of them believed the yuppie group were included, while others commented that the term of upper class means connection with the high society, expensive lifestyles, and even more social responsibility, according to the report of the magazine. The CASS reported in its 2009 Blue Book on Chinese Society, the growing income gap in China is thought of as one of the country’s most urgent social problems.

The country’s fast economic development is a reason for the swift growing of the number of the rich. At the end of 2007, there were 415,000 rich people in China, 20.3 percent more than in 2006, according to the third annual Asia Pacific Wealth Report released by Merrill Lynch and Capgemini.

The rich people in the report referred to those with assets of over $1 million, not including their own residence. According to the report, rich Chinese on average own $5 million.

Still, in Li’s view, China’s upper class does not merely refer to the rich. “I agree that China has such a group of elites,” he remarked, “As long as there is equal opportunity for everyone to become rich, it can stimulate social development.” Some entrepreneurs admit that a wealthy class exists.

“I think an upper class exists in China but I don’t belong to it.” Kevin Zhou, a 31-year-old private entrepreneur in a large general motor manufacturer in Chongqing, told China Daily yesterday.
