Nannies in short supply ahead of major festivals
Yang Changyou, a household service shop owner, rests in a chair with a board hanging on the back saying "Nannies in urgent need, salary is geilivable," in Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang province, Dec 20, 2010. The word "geilivable" is the latest popular cyber word spelled in 'Chinglish' which is transliterated as "give power" and basically means "awesome". Yang said 105 families, who provide a monthly salary 30 percent more than at ordinary times, have made reservations at his shop for nannies. But he is still troubled because few applicants came as people are going home at the end of the year for the New Year and Spring Festival. [Photo/Asianewsphoto]
