Chinese New Year
The Nightmare of Going Home
By Train
Getting train tickets in China has always been a hit and miss operation, especially if you want sleeper berths for long distance trains. At Chinese New Year, getting a ticket becomes something akin to winning the lottery.
This BBC clip sums the situation up quite well, and shows the growing divide between the haves and have nots in modern China, where just having access to a computer is an advantage。

Hello professor,
Glad to talk to you!

Thank you!
Best regards.
