For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Essentially, if you like to talk about matters of great import, then you are not only invited but obliged to attend.

All i can say is that if there are any chinese students who are interested in learning about education systems around the world, then please come to this event. If you are chinese, if you are passionate about education, then please come to this event. And if you are chinese or not, and are interested in the best of lively debates, then please come to this event.
