  1. Read the fine print and check out all the major financial problems that your great government is hiding from you. It is a lot worse than you think. The problem is, they think they could do open themselves by doing a Western style economy with a Communist style planning system. Well, it doesn't work that way. It is sad that the Mainlander will never, ever get to read an Economist magazine, a Wall Street journal or even know how to use a Bloomberg machine. Do I see prosperity in China? Sure, if you are a corrupted government official or someone having close ties with them like a Jack Ma. But seriously, can an ordinary citizen like a factory worker at Shenzhen, making a lowly 1000 Yuan a month, be able to afford a flat that cost 80 years of their life savings? You can say whatever the hell you want about the glory of the 5 Stars flag and all those bullshit. But ask yourself, is your information factual? Just like when People's Daily only reported 22 students death at Tiananmen in 1989?

  2. What is the 'good' shit on Mainland China? Care to elaborate? Because for every of your so-called 'good' ones, I could probably spent less than 30 seconds to debunk it with real facts and give you another 10 more which offered something totally opposite. So Winston has already mentioned objectively that he didn't know where and how safe the food in China was/is, but it is certainly cheaper than places like Hong Kong or Macau. So there is the dilemma, "You pay for what you get." Now, will the food in China kill you? Probably. It is just a matter of when, and you are taking chances. Whether your baby is drinking Sanlu laced with Melamine, or perhaps your teenage daughter putting those shinny cheap jewelries covered with Cadmium in her mouth or breathing those metal flakes, maybe you had better luck with your tainted burger from McDonald's but lady luck eluded you when you snacked on the crayfish from the toxic pond which ended up at your usual dive restaurant a few blocks away. So why do you think Mainland day-pass tourists are constantly hoarding sundries in Hong Kong and Macau. Some even traveled as far as Japan and Australia so they can resell them at Black Market Prices the moment the returned back to the border? That's just food, but what about other things such as household products and electronic gadgets. Being cheap is one thing and you can always get another one if they don't work. That's the easy part. However, what happened when you are using a fake charger for your phone and it caught fire? Then at the very least, you might have to spent more to get another phone. However, at the very worst, your house might get burned down? So, that's the agenda they want to promote and you can see it in their own people. At the end, is it really worth it?

  3. There is a real difference to the educated and being taught what is essentially meant to be Chinese from the Confucius ideas of "Filial Piety" and "Propriety" - Four simple Chinese words that is the moral and ethical behaviours of a human being. First, the word 'Dao' - "Way or Road" will guide your path in life. Second, 'De' - "Virtue" is the power, action and the integrity of oneself to contribute to the well being in humanity. So the combination of the two is the moral principles which sets the management of the society through deeds which karma will result with their directions in such manner. Third, 'Li' - "Respect" of the elders, parents, and ancestors through traditional means. It goes further to the nature and the environment of the society in which we are all accountable to each other. However, throughout evolution, we should keep the good and refine them and cast off those of the bad. Fourth, 'Yee' - "Responsibility" of your own actions, follow the ethical guidelines and most of all, helping those who cannot protect themselves. Those degenerates who did not learn and the ignorant ones are the results of what you see in all your videos. Simply because the Maoists in Beijing trying to control all aspects of their people's lives as the allegiance to the 'Party' is greater than the country - hence the fundamental problem of governance. That's why for the last 67 years, the CCP tried to instill their iron-clad nuisance for absolute power, and being hellbent to destroy the traditional Chinese ancient philosophies, which are very practical in the modern world anywhere today. Please take this as a case-by-case basis because there is an inherent difference with all Chinese and their corresponding opinions, as you have probably known from your extended stay in the Mainland and beyond.
