If you are originally from the West, you might think moving to China is a
little bit too exotic for you. But perhaps once you arrived to one of China’s
major metropolises you might actually find that it has many of the things which
you would find at home to make you feel comfortable, including an English
speaking expatriate community to form a support system. However, this may not
be the case for China Tier 2 or China Tier 3 cities as specified by the Chinese
government which are determined by population size and economic growth
potential.[1]
For designated Tier 2 and 3 cities, many of the familiar amenities and
infrastructure that could be found in the West and in the modern Chinese cities
such as Beijing, and Shanghai is not available. But because businesses need to
go to these Tier 2 or Tier 3 cities so do their talented employees. Therefore
questions arise about how to relocate employees to these cities such as, how do
companies fairly compensate employees who make the journey to the far reaches
of rural China to live and work? How does an employee secure housing in more
remote locations in China?
It is clear from these results that as China continues to grow its
economy in these Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities talented employees will be moving
there in greater numbers and therefore it is essential for companies to find
the right mix of additional benefits to guarantee successful relocations within
China.
Ningbo is
a harbor city in Zhejiang province and one of China’s most prominent ports. The
Ningbo-Zhoushan port is the fifth-largest in the world and the third-busiest in
China after Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. It is bound by the East China Sea
and Zhoushan Archipelago in the east, by Hangzhou Bay in the north, by Shaoxing
in the west, and by Taizhou in the south. In 2007, the Hangzhou bay bridge was
built, connecting Ningbo with its neighbors. Ningbo has established intermodal
rail services that connect it to 13 inland ports. It also has the largest
specialized dock for storing liquefied chemical products in China.
Ningbo serves as the economic center for the
southern Yangtze River Delta and has been ranked among the most competitive
cities in China. The municipal government of Ningbo encourages foreign
investment and various multinational corporations (MNCs) have established
operations in and around Ningbo. In 2013, Ningbo’s GDP reached US $108.3
billion (RMB 712.89 billion), up 8.1 percent year on year with an annual growth
rate of 9.26 percent. Ningbo’s exports totaled US $65.7 billion while imports
amounted to US $34.6 billion. The city ranked second in economic performance
for Zhejiang province in 2014, trailing only Hangzhou
Ningbo has a sister city relationship with four
cities in the U.S. – Wilmington, Delaware (1988), Houston, Texas (2000),
Milwaukee, Wisconsin (2006) and Norfolk, Virginia (2013).
