Have you checked out the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) website lately? No? Well, maybe you should. It is a valuable resource for those who are considering doing business internationally. It provides the latest information on a country’s history, people, geography, transportation, government, and military.

I have a friend who just received a job in China. She is very nervous taking her three children and husband abroad for two years. Last week, while searching the internet for information on China, she was overwhelmed with the contradicting information. The CIA website, https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/index.html, is a great tool if you want valuable, reliable, and up-to-date information on other countries.
