the pickpockets of hangzhou

Via Virtual China, a map of places where you should be careful in Hangzhou:

Hz Pickpockets

Chinastic reports on an emerging map of places where pickpockets hang out in the southern Chinese city of Hangzhou.  It was originally posted on a site called “My E-City”, (我的E都市) which claims to be the world’s first “online 3D urban simulation.” The site allows users to view, navigate, and add information to online maps of several Chinese cities.

AsiaPundit could have used one of these in Nanjing, where his mobile phone was lifted over the weekend.

    I tried it for Guangzhou, but then could not read any of the street names…

    Maybe now with the death penalty only those areas near the police station will be highlighted…
