Unacceptable 22/09/2016

Petter Engan - Kine Mardal, NOR © h-avis Dancers have been coming to China for years to take part in wold-level competitions that are held regularly under the auspices of WDSF all around the country. Recent World Championships in Beijing, Nanjing, Chengdu come to mind. And the GrandSlam leg in Wuhan plus the GrandSlam Finals in Shanghai have become permanent fixtures in the WDSF calendar. That makes it all the more incomprehensible that - all of the sudden - some athletes applying for their visa at Embassies and Consulates of the People's Republic of China in different countries are denied visa and therefore entry into the country on inexplicable grounds ...
