We have one known AH.commer from mainland China and that is [[Bishop]], and there are members of Chinese descent living in other countries, such as [[offtopic:Aozhouhuaren|Aozhouhuaren]], and more infamously, [[offtopic:HelloLegend]].  [[Jonathan Kan]] hails from [[Hong Kong]], and [[godel.chen]] is a member living in [[Taiwan]]. There are several Western Sinophiles on the board speaking up for Chinese-focused AH, such as [[Faeelin]], [[Sargon]] and [[Hendryk]].

-A running joke on the board is that absolutely everything was invented in China first - not just the usually stated gunpowder, printing, movable type etc., but also exaggeration, censorship, [[United States of America#America]], imagination and, notably, [[bears]] (a fact deduced by [[Dave Howery]]).
