I wasn't about to publicly inspect my baggage in the arrival hall , so I waited until I got to the hotel.
Once at the hotel I opened my bag and the contents had been clearly ripped out and thrown back in, nothing compared to how neatly I packed my bag then subsequently restrained with bag straps.
Nothing seems to be taken nor was there any valuables in the bag , but now who would cut off the cable ties I locked my bag with ? Doubt it was customs officers doing an inspection , but more rather a sneaky ground baggage handler who thought the first class bag tags might be a indication to valuables contained inside along with the 2 hour delay to maximize "searching " for valuables.
Is it worth to complain or should I just take it on the chin ?
lol china. You should report. But mind you, in china they have what is called a washing-hair boat. You get to go to chinawithout using a passport.
