So tempted to go to beijing for my PhD

Why not go, It would be an experience but I imagine you would need to speak Chinese.

My main concern with going would be that I can't keep my mouth shut about politics... And I don't fancy getting in trouble abroad

I understand, I wish you well either way 🙏

I can barely speak two languages. I tried to learn some Mandarin but apparently I am tone deaf because I cannot hear or get the tones right when I practice.
