[quote=TRAVELINGINCHINA,297791]I stumbled upon an article “The David Harrison on China: Return to Beijing”. The author detailed the changes of Beijing in the past 25 years. He made a contrast between the image of Beiing in 1984 and the new image in 2008.  He said in his article : “Spitting is still an art form, getting on the bus a survival skill. But the new Beijing - with its fast cars, shiny buildings and designer clothes - is a different world.” One thing he described in his article convinces me a lot: “today the atmosphere (in China) is more relaxed, the state is less intrusive and most Chinese people are more interested in making money than playing politics.” True enough! Chinese people are more interested in making money than playing politics. There are no more “red guards” and no “Cultural Revolution”. People become less concerned with politics.  Making money is the rife belief in the whole China. This is the scenario in China. How about the situation in other parts of the world? Where are you from and what are your countrymen intereted in now?[/quote]
