    On the nights when you see your girlfriend get a hotel room and both stay over there.

    Well...the pundits were saying base rates would rise under a Clinton administration......BUT it is not really about what I say is it, it is about the realities of what is happening in the credit markets?

    With the landlord paying for it presumably? - as he is the one that doesn't wish to abide by his own contract.

    Have a word with yourself mate.

    OP, really. Just look at extricating yourself. You will not win this one.

    Especially if the LL really is chinese. They simply don't accept your argument.

    Think what marksoton is referring to is the concept of keeping "face". See:

    www.transitionsabroad.com/listings/living/articles/keeping_face_in_china.shtml

    to explain.

    I was warned of this before in an incident some years back that I had (in Britain) - but went ahead - and it was a head-on clash. But I did so - and would do so again in those circumstances.

    The landlord knows the rules - he was the one that made this contract and it's irrelevant whether he actually understood the nature of such a contract. It was his responsibility to understand it - so I would still go right ahead and make him either stick to his own contract OR accept the contract was terminated without any penalty to me OR carry right on living there as per normal for the rest of the contract..
