When students at the No. 3 high school in Zhongxiang arrived to sit their exams earlier this month, they were dismayed to find they would be supervised not by their own teachers, but by 54 external invigilators randomly drafted in from different schools across the county.
The invigilators wasted no time in using metal detectors to relieve students of their mobile phones and secret transmitters, some of them designed to look like pencil erasers.

Outside, an angry mob of more than 2,000 people had gathered to vent its rage, smashing cars and chanting: "We want fairness. There is no fairness if you do not let us cheat."
Apparently the competition is so fierce there are effectively no rules. What we would call corruption they call business as usual. Their game and not, so we want to believe, ours.
rules there are just, 'whoever can grab it first' - so I can't understand why so many Western govts. and companies want to sell out to them - give it another 50 years or so and WE will be the ones cleaning their toilets.

Unless a way can be found to cheat at that also.....
Chinese culture is and always has been Darwinism in action. It does not take prisioners or suffer the stupid or fools. There is only sucess. There are no rules and no concept of fair.
That is what happens when you have a system that favors test scores over real learning. It’s a lesson for everyone, including politicians in the US.
It's a cultural issue not a process issue.
