I am available to speak on a variety of topics if any advocacy groups want to pick up the tab for my airfare and lodging. I prefer no travel to the south during the summer months, but am otherwise flexible.
The place was obviously staged by a pro. Notice the light was left on.
These brokers in rural China are really no better than Corcoran at times. Here’s the pic IMBY:

“Stories of Chinese Cleaver Part II: The Morbid Side of Dim Sum”
DIBS… What, no kitchen pics?
As I posted in the Forum when someone pointed out the cleaver attack:
When I lived in Hong Kong, the meat cleaver was the weapon of choice for everything from fights over girls, drugs, mahjong game gone awry, aberrant wives, etc, etc, etc, etc.
Not a day would go by where The South China Morning Post would not carry a story about a “chopper” atttack as it was referred to over there. This is just a Chinese thing.
Choppers (cleavers) are handy. Every kitchen has one or maore and they sit out there in the open ready at a moments notice to chop up a chicken or your husband/wife.
