@Mengba - so funny, stroking the man's hair! Good on you for being so brave.
I wonder if a polite way would be to ask something simple like, "can i help you?" (wo neng bangzhu ni ma?) Less harsh than "what do you think you're doing" but might still make them reflect on what they're doing?
Imagine a dream, of a country where there was no lying. Wouldn't we all want to live there? I tell you what, it starts from every single person who decides not to do it!
True, all those are affecting factors. Going forward from here, what are the options - more lying, less lying, or the same amount of lying to occur in Chinese society? And what factors would bring about those results?
This forum has commented on the differing perspectives on lying from different countries, so we are generally saying the particular usage of lying in a particular country is a reflection of their unique culture.
Maybe so. Or would you prefer to say lying is not a cultural phenomenon, but rather, what? A moral one?
No results found.

Posted byLeshan steam train is also narrow gauge? It would be cool to try that one too.
To get to Kunming Bei to catch the metre gauge cost me 1 kuai for a 20 min bus ride - how long will it take to get to Leshan?
Although yesterday afternoon my family turned up at the station to discover the afternoon run is closed for some sort of refit. The morning run was not mentioned as closed.
