MBP is bi volt and bi hertz, meaning it works on 110v and on 220v also 50 or 60 Hz. All you need is a plug adaptor. I tell you this for sure because I bought mine in Chicago (110v/60Hz) and I use it in France (220v/50Hz). I am using an international adapter, pretty cheap, it plugs in any kind of plug there is. I'm sure you'll find one in China for you. I think mine is made in China, lol. :p

Yes. That white brick of a power adaptor means that you can use it anywhere 110V-240V. All you need is a plug adaptor. Very easy to find in either the UK or Canada.
