Currency The official currency in China is the Renminbi (RMB or CNY), which consists of yuan, jiao and fen. 10 jiao make up 1 yuan, and 10 fens make up 1 jiao. (The equivalent of yuan, jiao and fen are dollar, 10 cents and 1 cent respectively) Money is issued in notes of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 yuan, and 1 yuan coins. There are also notes and coins for 1, 5 jiao. Fen is issued as coins. But fen is rarely used as they have no purchasing power. TIPS: you would better change the money into RMB or US dollars before you come to China.

Internet In most cases, Internet access will be available through both LAN cable and Wi-Fi where we work or live in. However, when it comes to no wireless service, you can turn your laptop into a wireless router in a really simple way, check the videos below: Windows PC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SR7Qp-75Yl0Mac: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE5lZIAs0qINote Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google and many other websites are currently blocked by Great Firewall of China. That means you cannot get access to them in China mainland, but if you want, there are many online VPN software which helps get access to those blocked websites and some of them are free. Be careful to select online VPN service.

TelephoneFrom CHINA to ABROAD - International direct dialing 1. Dial the international dialing access code (00). 2. Dial the country code of the country you are calling. (If the number starts with a 0, drop the 0 and dial everything else. )For example, to call the US number (123) 456-7890, dial 00+1+123-456-7890. By default, the international long distance function is closed by telecom carrier, so you need to call them to open the service and your may be required to pay 300 yuan or more as a deposit to activate the international long distance function. Also it's expensive for international direct dailing. For example, call USA is 0.80 yuan / 6 seconds (8.00 yuan per min) and 40% off at concession period 0:00-7:00 daily.

- Using IP card This is a cheaper way to make an international call. Telecom opreators offer many kinds of IP cards, such as 17900 calling card by China Telecom. It's the most compatible card and can be used in most area of China. It's cheaper then IDD, for example, call USA is only 0.30 yuan / min + 0.10 yuan /min local connection charges. IP cards are often sold at discount prices. You can buy below two cards online and get card number w/ PIN instantly.

From ABROAD to CHINA 1. Dial the international dialing access code (typically 00, 011 or 0011) 2. Dial China's country code (86). (If the number starts with a 0, drop the 0 and dial everything else. )For example, to call the Chinese number (012)-345-6789 from the US dial 011+86+12-345-6789. Again, direct dialing is the most expensive way to make an international call.Mobile Phone

In China, you can use SIM card and choose to buy one from 3 main mobile service providers: China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. There are many branches of these three companies and all of them provide international calling programs of themselves. To buy a SIM card, you need to show your passport to the clerk and then choose a mobile number you prefer. OC or buddies will help get this done.
