Traveling to China? Watch out

Visitors to China have new reason to be concerned, especially if they ask too many questions, work odd hours, or have too much study-abroad experience.

China has unveiled a new hotline enabling citizens to report people they suspect of being foreign agents, according to a report in the state-owned Jilin Daily. The government is seeking anyone who would “steal, pry out, buy or otherwise illegally obtain state secrets or intelligence, or conspire, coerce or pay government employees to become traitors,” according to a translation by the New York Times.
