Comments on Working China
Manually Laboring China?
Hardly the rallying call to the class we commissioned, comrade. Any chance of something with more thousand yards stares into the brighter tomorrow and bits of red cloth flapping in the wind? Bonus points for Elvis on the soundtrack though.
劳动光荣，懒惰可耻！
@Jim: I hear you. One day, our comrades will appreciate the fact that someone recorded the things were.
All of the above was shot in some of China's most prosperous cities. Just wait till I get a chance to spend a few days in the country side.

China has made significant improvements that
surpassed everyones expectations.Could I complain?
Yes...China needs a thicker skin, when it comes to
criticism, to fit in with the West more effectively. The West also needs to understand that China has it's own cultural identity and accept China, as China...China chose to interact with the West on it's own accord and has evolved into a beautiful flower...Perhaps those of us that
complain, should look at our own gardens first,
before judging China? Good Luck China...Scotty
