I want to say that there are lots of job opportunities in China, and use "the mainland" to refer to China. The sentence that I have in mind is:
Job opportunities in/on the mainland are abundant.
I am not sure if I should use "in" or "on" in the above sentence. "In" sounds okay because we can "in a country", but "on" also sounds correct because we say "on a piece of land". So, should I say "in the mainland" or "on the mainland"?
Thanks much!
