Impact of Chinese Human Smuggling on the American Labor Market - US Department of State
In the past ten years, undocumented Fuzhounese have penetrated deeply into the garment, construction, and restaurant trades in New York. Many of their employers are not Chinese. Non-Chinese-owned small electronics factories in New Jersey, construction companies specializing in loft renovation in Soho, and Long Island farms alike use Chinese employment agencies to find Chinese labor contractors who will take care of selection, transportation, payment, and management of their workers. In fact, if one looks into the kitchens of most mid-priced continental or American restaurants in Manhattan, one is likely to find a number of Fuzhounese working there. When a construction company can hire a skilled carpenter for fifty dollars a day and an unskilled one for even less, without ever even having to know the workers' pay scale, why should it matter what kind of conditions the workers are laboring under? ...

New York - Retail Distribution and Sales - Heroin Distribution in Three Cities
Retail groups and dealers use numerous techniques to effect heroin sales in New York City. Commonly, communication devices such as pagers or cellular phones are used to facilitate sales transactions. For example, a buyer enters a code in a pager or phone and is contacted by the dealer. The dealer tells the buyer where to meet, and at that point, the buyer is either supplied with heroin or given further instructions for the sale to proceed. In groups that are somewhat structured, the exchange is sometimes compartmentalized: one person provides the heroin to the buyer, and another person collects the money from the buyer. This tactic limits the risks associated with the sale. Street dealers also frequently use business establishments such as restaurants to sell heroin. A buyer contacts the dealer at a restaurant, whereupon the dealer leaves the establishment and returns with the merchandise. Street dealers frequently operate out of apartments to limit the amount of heroin they carry on t ... [Read More]

China (03/05)
On January 1, 1979, the Chinese Government officially adopted the pinyin system for spelling Chinese names and places in Roman letters. A system of Romanization invented by the Chinese, pinyin has long been widely used in China on street and commercial signs as well as in elementary Chinese textbooks as an aid in learning Chinese characters. Variations of pinyin also are used as the written forms of several minority languages. ... China is the oldest continuous major world civilization, with records dating back about 3,500 years. Successive dynasties developed a system of bureaucratic control that gave the agrarian-based Chinese an advantage over neighboring nomadic and hill cultures. Chinese civilization was further strengthened by the development of a Confucian state ideology and a common written language that bridged the gaps among the country's many local languages and dialects. Whenever China was conquered by nomadic tribes, as it was by the Mongols in the 13th century, the conquerors sooner or later adopted the ways of the "higher" Chinese civilization and staffed the bureaucracy with Chinese. ...
