[quote=APAULT,270460]I'm sorry you have such a poor opinion of westerners, Iceblue.  When we have problems like the recent snow in China, it is my experience that people in all cultures/nations usually help each other.

We still have a very strong attitude of responsibility to family and community.  many peopLE give up a lot of time for their community but assisting with community childrens' activities like sport and youth clubs, others help the elderly by driving them to hospitals or delivering meals, others help in hospitals...and the list goes on and on.

Equally, I see so much anti-social anti community behaviour in China - just look at the attitude to driving.  'Get out of my way I have a car!'   By contrast, while driving on my current holiday in the UK, when I get to a crossroads and a car wants to enter from a sideroad, he waits, and drivers on the main road slow and wave him to enter.  In 4 weeks driving, I haven't used my car horn once.

I do not believe there is much difference between China and many other countries in how caring they are.  There are some differences of detail and we could learn from each other for sure.

On a ranking I most prefer to live in Australia, then China, then UK (mywhere I was brought up), and bottom of the list - ha, just read my other posts!
