[quote=CHRISWAUGHBJ,36759]My usual answer to questions like this is: China is very big. Which means, it's just too hard to describe easily. I've been living in China for seven years now and have no intention of leaving. What does that tell you? To address a point raised by several people: Although it is true that some Chinese people equate modernisation with westernisation and there is a huge "Western" influence on modern China, it is not true that 'old' or 'real' or 'traditional' China is disappearing. An honest look at history will show you that China has influenced and been influenced by other cultures throughout its history (e.g. Tang Xuan Zang's Journey to the West- there is a real story behind the novel and tv shows) and yet Chinese culture has remained strong. China will continue to borrow from and lend to its neighbours, as it always has, and China will remain strongly and proudly China.[/quote]
