I was leafing through a geography IGCSE course book when I sensed a problem with the book. They are all photocopies here so it is not uncommon to find pages missing or printed upside down. My fingers felt one of the pages was a lot thicker than the others and I thought two pages had been fused together. However on closer examination, I found a plain white label had been deliberately stuck over a section of the book – in fact a case study. 
Now I became curious about what the IGCSE student readership was not allowed to read. I started picking at the corners. It was stuck down very well and it took some perseverence to peel anough off to get a sense of the case study. Then… ah…. yes of course, I could see the problem. Oh well, let’s hope that topic doesn’t come up in the exam.
I enjoy living in China so I shalln’t be writing the actual words here in my blog. There are still some subjects you cannot talk or read about here and this is one of them. You can talk about the changing ethnic balance in different countries and parts of countries but you can’t talk about it in that place.
So geography is not only challenging here because there is no field studies centre but also because someone with a box of white labels has got to your course books before you.
