This is an open letter to Shanghai.
Dear Shanghai, I love you! I love everything about you. I love your hustle, your bustle, your many wonderful restaurants, the never-ending shops that line your streets and I love your friendly people. Will you marry me? Yours now and forever, Claire

Hi Claire, since you're the online editor and nobody else has answered me, what are you doing about the Movember competitions? It's 2 months overdue and the only winner (1 out of 4) was a CW writer. I think that this issue needs public redress - it's a bit off to just let it die, especially when the only winner works for CW.

FYI your visa post got picked up by the HaoHaoReport on Twitter :)

Hi Claire - Movember? It needs an answer, because just letting it die is disrespectful to those of us who joined in, and troubling in regards to accountability regarding competitions in general - after all, running a competition sort of requires finishing it, and giving prizes to staff is very bad form.
