I will get back into this now that things start to settle down. A bit to also talk about in China and most importantly now that I am in Australia. I am gaining a better understanding of China as I can compare and contrast. A whole new insight so to speak.
In any case, it is now not the case that a business can register a domain name. Get this. Businesses are NOT ALLOWED to own .CN domain names. ONLY INDIVIDUALS. I’ll let you all ponder why that may be the case. It is about as hard as figuring out why BBQ’s attract flies.
You people out there know who you are. Stop trying to take the short cuts and giving us genuine China hands a bad reputation.
There seems to be a lot of confusion and old information floating around about what is or isn’t an ICP may be and what is needed to get one and then as announced today – additional steps needed during the actual application process.

Is there any point in NOT offshoring work? Most of the best tech these days is made out of India and Asia. So why do people still bother to do Computer Science degrees in the west of learn programming?

It is also no secret that the percentage of users in China that would love to use foreign web sites for most of their daily stuff – is quite low. Yes stuff is blocked. But the lion’s share of Chinese speaking people want Chinese sites with Chinese stuff of them. They are located inside China.
A former client of mine who was involved in a new venture recently quizzed me as to whether or not “We require clients to undertake the Cultural Understanding Course” if they do hosting and services with us?
There has been a bit of a maelstrom recently regarding the use of .CN and ICP certificates all on top of the existing confusion.
So to try and set the record straight I am going to give a nice little walk through the pages of history and clearly state the facts of the matter from the inception until the present. And hopefully not only explain what the situation is, yet also how it came about and the anthropology of how we got to the situation that we have today.
