[quote=JIMMYB,484037]On Dec. 8, the 1st Guangdong Provincial international charity bazaar was held at the Zhengjia Square in Guangzhou. Consulates of Poland, Canada, Greece and other 30 countries took part in the charity bazaar. At last, more than 330,000 yuan was collected. According to the organizers, the fund will be used to refurbish the listening and speaking classrooms in a rehabilitation center in Guangzhou and buying some teaching equipment. Unfortunately, 4900 yuan was found out to be counterfeit money. The organizer suspects that some people did it on purpose because they knew foreigners couldn’t tell whether the money was counterfeit or not. Chinese netizens aired their opinions on this matter on the internet. Many felt ashamed because of the counterfeit money. A netizen said he would donate CNY 5000 (of course real money) to ‘save all Chinese people’s face’. However, the former vice chief of National Bureau of Statistics of China has different opinion. In his view, those foreign consulates aim to make all Chinese lose their face. ‘Don’t we lack of 330,000 yuan? All these money are Chinese people’s money. I think those foreigners who involved in the charity bazaar are shameless. If foreigners really want to do charity, please go back to your own country and collect funds’, says he. Yesterday, the Consulate General of Belgium in Guangzhou posted on Weibo.com that all the products they offered at the charity bazaar were sponsored by Belgian companies. “All the products are sold at the cost price. And we donate all the money we got. We spared our time and worked on Saturday to join at the charity bazaar. Why do we feel ashamed? It was the 4900 yuan counterfeit money that was shameless. ” [/quote]
