A few years back, after jumping into the restaurant business and getting to know PRC customers, workers and friends and after marrying my Sichuan princess, I converted everything I had into yuan and it has grown so much - currency boomed, our property in Chengdu boomed, everything boomed.
In my restaurant, you can pay in yuan or yitongka. It shows the customers' class
I just love PRC, love, love , love. If you embrace China, you will experience that indescribable joy and happiness.
Here is the Business Times - but I already knew that ten years ago.

[SINGAPORE] China is not just a giant in global trade, the renminbi has also been taking Olympian strides in becoming an international currency.
The RMB now has a 4 per cent market share in the global issuance of letters of credit by value, making it the world's third largest currency - leaving the pound and yen in the dust. Last year, the RMB's share was 2.97 per cent.
Latest data from payment platform Swift shows that in the world of trade finance, RMB-denominated LCs are third, behind only the US dollar and euro.
"This makes it one of the world's top three currencies in this space - it's quite an Olympic achievement," said Swift.
