6 City in China = County in U.S.

Just to add more confusion to it, in US, there is another geography boundary between county and city is town. In many counties with less population, they group couple of cities together and become town, the town will have town hall which just like city hall in big city, like New York. But for the county with less population but bigger land, it's inefficient for town to have all the function like city, e.g. New York city has its own police department, but for the suburb county, police department associate with county instead of city or town. It's really flexible and complicate, partly because US was built upon Federalism, small to state, county, city, they all have their own legislative, so the system can be quite different across the country.
Just stir it a little bit more, use New York city as example, New York city really include 5 boroughs, the New York city people constantly refered to is really only Manhattan Borough, and under each borough, there are smaller organization, it's called city also... Getting confused yet?? ;)
Not every city has boroughs, I remember it's really came from Ireland. And these county-town-city system, it's also partly inherited from UK.
So there isn't really one-to-one match between different China and US.

5 PVG: Book Domestic Flight in China

Hi

I just wanted to let you know how helpful your website is regarding travel information for Shanghai and Beijing.

My wife and I will be travelling to Shanghai and Beijing in September 2006. We have roundtrip tickets from Newark, NJ to Shanghai. We plan to head directly to Beijing for 4 or 5 days and then head to the Sunisland resort in western Shanghai for the next week. I know the trip is far off in the future but your site has provided some good info for us to think about.

Hopefully, as the date comes closer, if I have any question that can't be found on your site, you will be kind enough to give me some assistance.

Thanks

Shanghai slim says: Mr. Wang, didn't your mother teach you basic safe computing when you were a little nanhaizi? :-)

Have all your computing stuff taught by your mother? or shall I say does your mother know what motherboard mean?
