Snafu, I didn't realize you are in China! That's pretty wild.

SoCoolGifts, I'm sorry. While I may have suggested China ETFs, I actually don't have any personal experiences or specific recommendations. As a starting place though, you could try looking into a major brokerage's ETF offerings. For example, it appears that both Fidelity and T Rowe Price will allow you to buy PowerShare Golden Dragon ETF (PGJ).

But please don't forget that several major Chinese companies also have their stocks available (as ADRs) on the NYSE. China Mobile and PetroChina are two such examples. That way, it won't be too different from buying US stocks, but you'll still directly own shares of Chinese companies.

Finally, a lot of international mutual funds and ETFs already have some exposure into the Chinese market. I would check on the prospectus and ask for additional information if you would rather just take a passive route.
