MB Endorses: Wearing a Nametag Even if You're Hosting a Party

MB Endorses: Wearing a Nametag Even if You're Hosting a Party

His image is plastered on every vertical surface in Beijing, yet at his speech at the twice-a-decade national congress, Chinese president Xi Jinping wore a nametag. This might strike some as false modesty, but it strikes us as just plain modesty. The 2nd most powerful man in the world wore a nametag like everyone else.

The 91 year-old and former General Secretary of the Communist Party of China Jiang Zemin remained unimpressed.
