In my opinion the worst thing about MAP is that the content is written and prepared TWO MONTHS in ADVANCE. Hey, we all know how quickly things change in china. Also, this means that there can never be any reviews that really mean anything, because any review printed is instantly two months old.

Yeah it's aimed at the bilingual market, which is also a problem for a few reasons.

One more thing about MAP...ALL THEIR COVERS SUCK!!!! Every single cover I've seen of MAP, from any kind of graphic design, marketing or even aesthetic viewpoint, have been dismal failures. For God's sake, get yourself a graphic designer of SOME sort, or even just a photographer with a good eye (whichever magazine I'm talking to here).

My two cents.

Our publication was issued almost three weeks ago now which should be plenty of time for people to have seen it.

What do people think of it? All feedback is welcome so tell us what we missed, what we could have done more of and of course, feel free to compliment us on a job well done! You can post here or email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Issue 2 will be published in early December and Issue 3 will be out in February so we hope you continue to enjoy.

They are not as "visual" as they could be. I would like to see the NJeXpat mag have a better overall appearance. The content looks good so far, so just hope to have better photos and images in the mag. Again, good to see something fresh and new in Nanjing!
