One of My Favourite Things About China // 中国让我最喜欢的一点

Ойын-сауық

While in Xi'an, I got up early one morning and had a walk around the beautiful nearby park, where I met my good friend Matt, from the Jayoe nation, we had a great chat about Chinese parks, and I show you all the activities that go on in parks around China.

    I'm an oversea Chinese born in Vietnam, now living in the UK. We always had a close link with China as our relatives are still there. My father had always told us how China will one day be strong and prosperous. Despite growing up in the UK with anti Chinese news negative public perception of China, ive always held onto my love and believe in China. I'm so happy to see that my father's vision of China has become a reality.

    These old people lived through the toughest times of the new China, and collectivism and socialism made their lives better now. Of course, I'm not saying that these two doctrines are flawless. Deng Xiaoping sought to blend capitalism and individualism into the collectivism and socialism in 1980s, and the collision created an unprecedented social phenomenon such as what happened in the late of 1980s. But luckily, we survived. It was these old peoplen who, in the harsh conditions of those days, worked tirelessly to build this good old country and make it reborn. We should pay tribute to them.

    I have been living and working in China for 7.5 years, In Changsha, Hunan, every morning I went to the park nearby where I lived and did the Tai Ji Quang exercises along with a group every morning. I did not know which was a problem for me, so they taught me. Later I could do the same in Urumgi, Xin Jiang. It's also called "shadow boxing". It goes "slowly" but that makes you train your muscles in your body even harder. You try it: make the movement as if you are picking up your glass with tea, but then s--l--o--w--l--y. Do not shake you hand or arms too much (otherwise you will or might burn your fingers because the glass with tea is filled with HOT tea) (preferably green tea?) :-) Also in Lijiang, Yunnan, I could do this in the village Shuhe.

    One of my favourite past times in any city in China is to visit parks and squares, where there is always a hive of activity in the mornings and evenings, ranging from people doing tai chi, women's dance exercises, people singing or playing instruments, martial arts, and ballroom dancing to name many of them. This is not limited to the elderly, with many younger people partaking. Of course during the middle of the day these places are desolate, particularly on sunny days, because most chinese people fear sun exposure.

    It's a "culture" thing in eastern Asia, particularly in China where the elderly are deeply respected within society.

    Xi'an had been the capital city for 13 dynasties in China's 5000-year history, but today such kind of park doesn't only exist in Xi'an. There are lots of beautiful parks all over China, even in small towns. The amazing part is that all the parks are built with their own styles to somehow integrate local, regional culture. Chinese take of the public treasures, e.g. parks, majorly because they are educated to do so from a little age. It also reflects one of the crucial social values, "harmony", inherited from their ancestors, which now becomes part of China's culture. The essence of the harmony includes the relationships between an individual person and other persons, individual and community, and individual and environment. That's why you can see how Chinese enjoy park activities and how the parks are built to naturally blend with the ecosystem.

Chinese laws are very strict, but law enforcement is not strict. This is mainly about education. People are educated to care for public property since they were young. With the improvement of people's education level, protecting the environment and caring for public property have become conscious."

    In China, everyone was taught that "it's shameful to damage public property" since a child at primary school. In the 1980s and 90s of the last century, there were quite a number of public property damage phenomena. However, with China's gradual prosperity over the years, People think that damaging public property is undoubtedly improperly or even uncivilized behavior. Especially after the rise of the Internet, once uncivilized tourist behavior is discovered, It will be criticized by thousands of netizens. Therefore, in most cities with relatively good economic level, urban infrastructure can be maintained well, thus the phenomenon of public property damage has been greatly reduced.

    There are many CCTVs on the streets of China, which to a large extent ensure the safety of many citizens, but Western media will distort it into the Chinese government monitoring the people everywhere, and the people have no freedom. On the contrary, if China does not have so many CCTVs, public security will not be as good as before, and Western media will distort it into China’s social turmoil, the Chinese government’s political instability, etc. So no matter how well China does, As long as the Western media want to demonize you, they will have 10 million reasons.
