its not an expat school, its a private school teaching foreign curriculum so the students from there can go to foreign universities. They do not meet the eligibility requirements to take gaokao.

it is easy to see why he would be upset tbh. His life, though physically in China, is spiritually in the west. His kids attend a western school that is barred from gaokao. He has, against their will, put them on a path towards only being able to go to school in foreign countries.

His salary is paid by white finance bros. His interests lie in exploiting the Chinese people and the infrastructure, environment and institutions that Chinese people have built. In fact he is even worse than the white finance bros. For them, exploiting China is just business. When they can't do it anymore, they talk some shit then leave. For him, getting a pay cut is like losing his parents, it is a personal affront. His parents aren't the ones paying him 500k RMB per year.

Pakistan has tons of these schools. I went to one. Actually, this is the only choice for most middle/upper income class folk because the government schools are totally shit. I'm guessing it's similar to this Chinese private school. By the time you graduate, you are a Westerner who looks down on the locals. Should one at this time choose not to migrate to the West, they form a bubble within the local society just for themselves; kind of like a social apartheid, where everyone outside the bubble is inferior. Clever way to imbue Western culture into and enslave the local society. In Pakistan, these schools are often funded by foreign governments, especially the British and American. K-12 indoctrination, teaching students why West is the best and why you are inferior.

TikTok deletes Sputnik accounts​

Video-sharing platform TikTok has deleted the accounts of several branches of Sputnik media network. The crackdown came days after the US announced new sanctions targeting several Russian outlets, including RT.

On Saturday morning, the accounts of Sputnik Serbia, Sputnik Afrique, Sputnik Africa, Sputnik International, Sputnik Brasil, Sputnik Mundo and Sputnik Indonesia became inaccessible. TikTok has not yet commented on the development.

Sputnik Serbia has shared an image showing a query saying it could not find the account, adding that its page has also been blocked on Facebook, but remains operational on X.

Tiktok, a Chinese company is being more anti-Russian than an American company like X. actually it's probably exactly because they are a Chinese company that they feel they have to suck up to the US establishment harder than US companies themselves and serve the American empire for the sake of few more billions of $. these are the kinds of billionaires who are willing to sell their mothers for one extra dollar in their pocket.

The difference here is that in China the public schools are arguably better based on PISA results, and it is very hard for these students to switch back to the Chinese track if they don't go abroad. They must make the choice by high school and it is irreversible without retaking high school. And even if they go abroad, most end up back but without the social connections and that you make in a Chinese university. I don't blame them though. They didn't put themselves there.
