Indeed, if you “attack” the policeman in China as a Chinese, you’ll be sentenced or detained by officials, even if he just gives dogs “illegal” name. Man Detained in China for His “Illegal” Joke Some administrative and law enforcement departments, especially at the local level, are not familiar with handling cases involving foreigners, though an increasing number of foreigners are studying and working in China, said analysts. Controversy over foreign students’ “privilege” in China has returned to the spotlight on Chinese social media after a university in East China’s Shandong Province was reported to have “allocated” three study buddies for each international student. Reports went viral on Sina Weibo recently, saying that the Ji’nan-based Shandong University (SDU) allocated 141 buddies for 47 international students in 2018 and most of the buddies were female, while their international partners were male. © Image | Google

The reports triggered heated discussions on social media, with many netizens wondering why one international student needs so many buddies.

The SDU did not reply to the relevant media as of press time, but an alleged statement released by the university on Sunday spread on the internet said its buddy program was aimed at promoting the studies of domestic and international students and was carried out voluntarily.
