Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Foreign Pilot Drives Plane into Petrol Station to Fill Up

Standard procedure for all pilots. Most vehicle drivers do not know that (in many countries) the roads are purposely stretched out far enough for potential aircraft emergencies like this. Otherwise you would have planes forcing a crash landing in random areas. Full Comment>>

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Creepy Serial Underwear Thief Caught Red Handed: Says He Can’t Control Himself

This is why the field of psychology needs to be widely used in China, not only limited to clinical use. Every person in China needs some form of psychological support. Not to be confused with psychological instability. Just to give a helping hand or sympathetic ear to smaller issues so they do not manifest to ... Full Comment>>

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Woman Tries to Scam Man Through WeChat Shake: Doesn’t End Well For Her

He should open a case against her for falsifying her intentions and potential scamming. He was willing to give her money as a gesture of goodwill, but the sex was extra. So he is in the clear so far against the idea of prostitution. Full Comment>>

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news From March 15, Goods Bought Online Can Be Returned Within 7 Days Without Reason

Here's a thought, have a 3rd party agency governing over the online responsibility of the these sellers and the selling portals. Have the local police enforce this as potential online theft, to guarantee the money and product exchange as fair. Tie together the major banks with this idea too, they could be affected ...

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Foshan Workers Made to Walk Around in Underwear Among Other Face-Losing Punishments

You hear about these stories all the time. Yet I still haven't heard about the owner being arrest for any charges. You have between 6-10 men walking around in their underwear, in the rain clearly. Where are the police to get the men off the street? Where is the local government to protect the citizens from this kind ... Full Comment>>

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Woman’s 5-Language Baozi Stand Becomes a Sensation

It's good to see small businesses understanding the need to expand to non-chinese. You don't need expensive commercials, just simple changes can help. I often bought baozi from a local seller in Zhejiang. She learned that my speech was poor and kept her words simple. While other sellers used slang, complex phrases, ... Full Comment>>

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Guangzhou Market Sells Clothes from Garbage Dumps

In America, we have organizations like Goodwill and Salvation Army that take used clothes and items. The items are then cleaned and determined if they can be resold to the public at a massive discount. The secondary purpose is to give these items to poor families for free. At first glance I was disturbed by this ... Full Comment>>

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Long May Chinglish Reign: “Pirated” Xinhua Dictionaries Found in Many Chinese Schools

Instead of books, clearly buying legal copies is difficult, they should hire and send native speakers to live in these rural areas. Many young people would love to explore the Chinese countryside.

Around China : alpha3305 commented on news Foreigner Helps Fainted Passerby While Locals Stare and Take Photos

China is the only country I know where people are afraid to help others in need. But the bigger problem is that 'if' someone is trying to cheat them, the local police and government actually believes them over the truth. Now you give the public a fear of never helping someone in need and a government telling you to ... Full Comment>>

Articles : alpha3305 commented on news “Temporary Wives” for Chinese Migrant Workers: Who’s to Blame?

Clearly the subject of polygamy is coming up again in Chinese society. Many people consider this to be a remnant of the 中華民國 or ancient Chinese social structure where the rich could have unlimited number of wives depending on their bank accounts. But in reality, this type of social lifestyle is called upon in ... Full Comment>>

This lifestyle has been a foundation among many old cultures, especially in China. Only now is it in the public view.
