[quote=APAULT,36613]I guess my views about modern China are similar to Griz's. The cities are so often the same. Unfortunately so muuch has been destroyed by the Japanese, by the cultural Revolution, and by economic progress since the Reforms. I often say to friends that China is not as Chinese as I expected! Also I expected there would be some semblance of socilaism, but China is more capitalist than most western countries ie: the bosses can do almost what they like. I was also surprised to see how aggressive the driving is especially as most people are so laid back in other situations. An attitude of I have a car I am privileged, get out of my way. This is not part of the harmonious society that we spend so much time talking about in the classroom. However I have not travelled to the north and west so there is a lot more to see yet! I had to leave for family reasons, but I will be back, hopefully teaching again form 1 September, so I must enjoy living in China.[/quote]
