Yes, we have decided to leave China.

Glad you guys are keeping Pesach real in the Middle Kingdom. I think if you are Sephardic rice is kosher for Passover, which would make things a lot easier if you were in China. Good luck with your imminent move back to the USA. By the way, I like the new layout of the site.
