Safety in China

Hi everyone. I have some general questions for anyone who has flown in China. I'm wondering what the safety culture tends to be like there. Are the maintenance programs on par with what you would see in Europe or America? Does management back up decisions made in the interest of safety? What about the actual infrastructure (ground based navaids, etc...)? In other words, would you expect to be flying a lot of NDB approaches in the mountains? I'm just trying to get a general feel for what flying would be like for Grand China Express on the safety front.

I don't mean any of this as an insult to China or the airlines that operate there. Just covering my bases!

Thanks.
