Shanghai 'heaven' for expatriates

SHANGHAI: For 28-year-old Selvamaniam Kosala, working in Shanghai is both a refreshing and rewarding experience.

The electronics engineer from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, moved to the city in November 2005 with her husband, a product manager for the Asia-Pacific region of Royal Philips Electronics.

Kosie, as she likes to be called, said that while she was quite content with her life and work back home, the opportunities offered in a rapidly developing China were just too good to resist.
