Original title: last year, China issued a "green card" substantial increases in US media: foreigners are still difficult

Reference News February 27 us media say, analysts say, China usually sent hundreds of "green card", recent growth shows that authorities are looking for ways to attract more foreign investors and celebrities, while most get a "green card" are still Chinese.

According to the New York Times reported on February 24, former NBA-controlled weisidifen·mabuli (Stephon Marbury) at the Chinese Basketball Association to create his second career, he said, he likes when non-celebrities in Beijing. "There is a long way from home, I kind of like it," he recently wrote in the Tweets published along with a video, the video shows him eating hot pot in China.

Marbury, now 40 years old is 1576 foreigners granted permanent residence in China last year. According to the official Chinese news media reports, the so-called "green card" approval management was initiated in 2004, last year received a "green card" was the previous year's increase in the number of 163%.

However, for a country with 1.3 billion population approximately 600,000 foreign residents, get a "green card" remains very small. By contrast, America's population is about 324 million, according to government data in 2015, approved by more than 1 million green cards.

In modern Chinese studies at Leiden University Professor Peng Ke (Frank Pieke) said that immigration policies are contradictory, on the one hand, in order to improve the economic modernization of China, giving priority to attracting foreign talent, on the other hand, these policies reflected the deep-rooted instinct of distance with foreigners. Peng Ke said that these policies are similar with Japan and South Korea, was "based on the strong sense of nation States, which defines itself as home to a specific ethnic and cultural groups to maintain their purity, only those people who really need it. ”

Fei Geman (Fragomen) Becky Xia, a partner of international immigration law firm in Shanghai, said that Shanghai 2015 a relaxation of the foreign citizens living in the local "green card" eligibility criteria. Although applicants still must show proof has lived in Shanghai for four years, and there are more than 600,000 yuan of annual salary, she said, but the new rules are no longer required to be senior managers.

Xia said that Fei Geman last year sought a "green card" applications help customers has increased by 50%. She said, most of whom are Europeans working in the information technology industry, they are responsible for overseeing manufacturing in China. She added that she expects China's "green card" number will increase, partly, China have passed the retirement age (60 years for males and white-collar woman 55 years old) age of foreigners doing business in China is no longer eligible for work visas, they can apply for a "green card."

From the employer's point of view, "I think, there are more choices to get the talent you want," she said in reference to Shanghai's new rules. She also said that a "green card" and work permits, the "green card" does not need to be linked to the employment contract and, and "green card" of 10 years validity period can be extended.

But, experts say, workers in General, in particular since the beginning of 2000 in the southern city of Guangzhou live African traders and entrepreneurs, limits more and more, these people usually for overstaying.

China also has procedures for naturalization. State-run news media reported this month, two well-known Chinese-born scientists give up their American citizenship to become Chinese citizens, one is the 1957 Nobel Prize in physics Yang Chen-Ning, another computer science Turing Award Andrew Chi-chih Yao, was granted in 2000. They were Professor at Tsinghua University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences academician.

However, the successful cases are extremely rare. And recently a system of work permits for foreigners working in China and setting limits.

According to official media reports, the system has been implemented in November last year in the provinces, aim is to "encourage high-end, general control, limiting the low end" of foreign talent to build an information technology-driven economy.

Said Zou Mimi, Assistant law professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, in fact, the law was granted a work permit by workers at the bottom has become extremely difficult.

Demographers predict that China could end up facing a shortage of low-skilled workers in General, and more liberal immigration policies can help stabilize China's economy in the long term. However, Zou said encryption, as many migrant workers are still looking for work in China, the Government has not considered the establishment of the guest worker program for foreigners.

Mimi said Zou, China can increase fertility or, eventually raising the retirement age, or by investing in automation to solve the labour shortage problem. She added that some of this investment has begun, and Chinese companies are outsourcing low-skill production to other Asian countries. "But obviously some work cannot be outsourced, such as domestic work," she wrote in an e-mail.

中国去年发“绿卡”增加 美媒：外国人仍难拿卡|绿卡|外国人_新闻资讯

　　原标题：中国去年发放“绿卡”大幅增加 美媒：外国人拿卡仍难

　　参考消息网2月27日报道美媒称，分析人士说，中国每年通常发几百张“绿卡”，最近的增长表明当局在寻求如何吸引更多的外国投资者和名人，虽然大多数获得“绿卡”者仍为华裔。

　　据美国《纽约时报》2月24日报道，前NBA控卫斯蒂芬·马布里（Stephon Marbury）在中国篮球协会打造了他的二次职业生涯，他说，他喜欢在北京当外侨名人。“这里是远离故土的家，我喜欢它，”他最近在伴随一段视频发布的推文中写道，视频显示了他在中国吃火锅。

　　现年40岁的马布里是去年获准在中国永久居留的1576名外国人之一。据中国官方新闻媒体报道，所谓的“绿卡”审批管理工作是2004年开始的，去年获得“绿卡”的人数比前年的增长了163%。

　　但是，对于一个有约60万外国居民的13亿人口的国家来说，拿到“绿卡”的人数仍然非常少。相比之下，美国的人口约为3.24亿，据政府数据，2015年美国批准了超过100万张绿卡。

　　荷兰莱顿大学从事现代中国研究的教授彭轲（Frank Pieke）说，中国的移民政策是矛盾的，一方面，中国为了提高经济现代化，优先吸引外国人才，另一方面，这些政策反映了与外国人保持距离的根深蒂固的本能。彭轲说，这些政策与日本和韩国的很相像，是“以极强的民族国家感为基础的，这种国家将自身定义为一个特定民族和文化群体的家园，要保持自己的纯洁性，只让那些它真的非常需要的人进来。”

　　费戈曼（Fragomen）国际移民律师事务所在上海的合伙人Becky Xia说，上海2015年的一项规定放宽了在当地居住的外国公民获得“绿卡”的资格标准。虽然申请人仍必须拿出已在上海居住四年的证明，并且有高于60万人民币的年薪，她说，但新规定不再要求他们是高级管理人员。

　　夏女士说，去年向费戈曼寻求“绿卡”申请帮助的客户人数增长了50%。她说，大多数是在信息技术行业工作的欧洲人，他们在中国负责监督产品制造。她补充说，她预计中国发的“绿卡”数量将会增长，部分原因是，已经过了中国退休年龄（男性60岁，白领女性55岁）年限在中国经商的外国人不再有资格获得工作签证，他们反而可以申请“绿卡”。

　　从雇主的角度来看，“我倒是觉得，有更多的选择来得到你想要的人才，”她提到上海的新规定时说。她还说，“绿卡”与工作许可不同，“绿卡”不需要与就业合同挂钩，而且“绿卡”的10年有效期可以延长。

　　但是，专家们说，对一般工人、尤其是自2000年初期以来在南方城市广州居住的非洲贸易商和企业家来说，限制也越来越多了，这些人通常逾期居留。

　　中国也有外国人入籍的程序。官方新闻媒体本月报道说，两位著名的中国出生的科学家放弃了他们的美国公民身份，成为中国公民，一位是1957年获诺贝尔物理学奖的杨振宁，另一位是2000年获得计算机科学图灵奖的姚期智。他们都是清华大学的教授和中国科学院院士。

　　但是，成功的案例极为罕见。而且，新近的一个工作许可制度对外国人在中国工作制定了限制。

　　据官方新闻媒体报道，该系统已于去年11月在多个省市开始实施，目的是通过“鼓励高端、控制一般、限制低端”的外国人才，来建设以信息技术驱动的经济。

　　香港中文大学助理法律教授邹密密说，实际上，这个法律让最底层的工人获得工作许可证变得极为困难。

　　人口学家预测，中国最终可能面临低技术工人的普遍短缺，而更自由的移民政策则可以在长远上帮助稳定中国的经济。但是，邹密密说，由于许多农民工仍在中国各地寻找工作，政府还没有考虑建立针对外国人的客籍工人计划。

　　邹密密说，中国可以最终通过提高生育率或提高退休年龄、或通过投资自动化来解决劳动力短缺的问题。她补充说，一些这方面的投资已经开始，中国公司正在将一些低技能生产外包给亚洲的其他国家。“但有些工作显然不能外包，比如家政工作，”她在一封电子邮件中写道。
