    Based upon a foreigners insight into manners and behavior of Chinese people, I think the Olympics are the perfect opportunity to improve China's image from the bottom up.
    I am weary of having to wrestle to climb aboard a bus in Wuhan City. In Chinese banks, when conducting a transaction, I hate when people just walk in front of you and talk louder than you (this happened 3 times in a span of less than 6 months).
    Worst of all being a pedestrian on a crowded road. Pedestrians are supposed touse the sidewalks (where they exist) to walk on. I was nearly run over by a speeding car when walking out the door of an internet cafe onto a sidewalk in Xiamen. It was my quick reaction thay averted catastrophe.
    As much good that is said about Chinese cultures, it is clear that 'manners' and 'orderly' behavior is amongst them. As it is now, China is a much freer society than I had thought it was. So free, in fact, the people and their 'old-fashioned' culture inhibits them from doing anything real good to change some
of problems mentioned in your article.
