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]], [[Hendryk]] and [[subversivepanda]]. [[Tomb]] currently lives there.
