They used to be lauded as a bridge to the rest of the world. Now, they find that their once-coveted degrees don't draw the same reaction.Chen Jian, who did not want to use his real name, said he quickly realised that his undergraduate degree from a US college had become an obstacle.

When he first came back in 2020, he interned at a state-owned bank and asked a supervisor if there was a chance to stay on.The supervisor didn't say it outright, but Chen got the message: "Employees should have local degrees. People like me (with overseas degrees) won't even get a response."He later realised that "there really weren't any colleagues with overseas undergraduate background in the department".

It remains the biggest terror attack to have taken place on British soil.

Coverage tends to focus on anniversaries, but the past six months have brought two big-budget television dramas and later this year a play about the town's response to the disaster will debut at Glasgow's Citizens Theatre.aims to tell some of the less well-known stories about those who died on the flight, and about those they left behind.
