Some good comparisons I have heard over the years.
Chinese drive the same way they play chess - on the lines, not in the box (lanes). Driving is a new (10-15 years) phenomena here in China. But after 12 years I see a significant difference on a daily basis. When driving from Kunming to Dali just about every other car drove on the line 12 years ago, now those are the minority and they are horn blasted out of the way by passing trucks, buses and SUVs - change on an individual and group level.
Religion (Buddhism, Taoism, + Confucianism) have all been intergrated and the average (40 - 50 years and younger) person can not answer simple questions about any of these aspects of religion. People go to temple to rub Buddhas belly and wish for luck and money - that is the extent of their knowledge. Mostly older people (over 60 - 3 generations ago) visit the temples and can answer many questions regarding dieties and practices. I know, I am the Temple king of Kunming and have visited over 256 temples in 5 districts.
Unlike other SE Asian countries where buddhism is a way of life and practiced daily by all members of the family. The tradition is still alive in younger people.
I mention these 2 to show how people and chinese culture are changing rapidly now - Mianzi is another such example.
To be rich is glorious - Deng Xiao Ping - This is all that matters now until it goes to far and the pendulum must swing in the opposite direction (Destruction of environment and destruction of Family values).
Lets see what the LAW has to say about this topic. These regs are from 2013 which I believe to be outdated as well as there is no mention of 72V Ebikes. Only mentions 48V and 64V.
This is a great topic to address with 12345 - the Mayors Hotline to get a clear answer as to what is legal and illegal. If anything, complaints will at least force them to update the regulations.
Internet has made people aware of some unusual Chinese Phenomena which are the result of the 1 Child policy which recently changed in 2015. Examples such as 421, Little Emperor, Hong Kong Kids, Boomerang Kids and the dramatic increase of kids going to school abroad at earlier ages (before was mostly for university).
All these factors are changing the Family Dynamics of chinese culture on an individual as well as a group level.
I have to disagree. As I mentioned earlier, my wife is presently attending many Parenting classes here in Kunming and other large cities that offer/conduct this type of training. The Family dynamic is changing and evolving very quickly right now and will see many changes throughout the next decade.
Again, this is due to western influence. All changes first must take place on an individual level (family) before they can evolve into group level chnages (business). The way of doing business is chnaging as a result of people changing.
Alien, I know you mean well but we already live in a world were millions of people are murdered (on purpose) every day and the entire world condones it.
The UN is a useless entity that serves the rich. Israel has violated so many UN resolutions yet the world has done nothing for over 60 years. They murder people and all the UN does is pass resolutions and tell Israel they broke a law. Iraq broke 1 rule and they were on Saddam in a minute. Millions killed in Iraq, Chile, Argentina, Guatemala and the list goes on and the world does what? Nothing. So please do not say it would not be condoned.
Totalitarian control is very possible because there are many countries with this type of govt and it is not Syria or North Korea, or Cuba. The EU is now totalitarian, the peole have no way to vote for their leaders just as in the USA. Billions are given to bankers and the majority of the population disagree but there is nothing they can do because if they try to protest they are beaten and arrested. Am I insane or is this not a fact? How many countries object to austerity measures yet the people can do nothing.
Many people are put on the no-fly list and see what happens to them. They have no legal rights and they are guilty until they can prove themselves innocent. Last I heard there was a 5 year old on the list - Haha.
The USA is a fascist country and this did not happen because of me.
Finally, drugs are NOT uncontrolled. They are in fact very much controlled by the govt. Talk to border Patrol agents (not rookies) and they are told when to search and when not to search. Everyone knows the schedule of the border patrol in San Onofre near Camp Pendleton. Drugs go by in trucks as innocent people are stripped searched at borders in search of drugs while the drugs pass through in huge trucks. It is an illusion.
I am trying to be very clear - it does not matter what I think or you think is an illegal drug - It does not matter because we are dictated what is legal or illegal. We have no choice. If the USA was a democratic contry then many things would change but they never do because it is no longer a republic and it is in no way democratic.
If there was a vote tomorrow, who would vote for spending trillions on war and weapons and who would vote for education, health and so on. Of course, the overwhelming majority would vote for education, infrastructure and NOT war or weapons. So why doesnt it happen???
Alien, I read your posts and you seem logical and intelligent from what and how you write. Is anyhting I am stating here untrue or is it not factual. Look at the condition of the world, the entire world, not just a few countries. Everything is purposely set to fail and cause chaos. Everything!
How about putting a very powerful poison in all illegal drugs so when the drug user take the drug they will literally kill themselves. This way no one must bear the responsibility of their own deaths. After some time, all drug users will die off and the drug demand will end all drug wars. With good education, young people will not fall into this problem.
Now the truth comes out. You defend this cause because you are one of the many that do take drugs. I dont care if you took drugs once or 100 times. I dont care if you are useful or not to society. No one is going to execute you. Grow up fool. Dont you realize where you are? This is a forum where people discuss topics and all people have different opinions. This is not a personal battle between Hugo and Blobbles. How old are you? Perhaps the LSD you took as an adolescent has impaired your judgement and left you with the maturity of a 13 year old.
The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.

发布者we all made a pact not to ever do it again after a bad experience. - So even casual drug use does have negative affects on people.
