In this Saturday, March 5, 2016 photo, ethnic minority delegates arrive at the Great Hall of the People before the opening session of the National People's Congress (NPC) in Beijing. Unlike legislatures elsewhere, China�s does little in the way of legislating, is carefully stage-managed and allows no foreign leader to address it. But like such chambers of power elsewhere, China�s has become something of a billionaire�s club, where the super-rich sit shoulder-to-shoulder with colorfully adorned Tibetan, Mongolian and other minority delegates and members of the country�s vast bureaucracy.
