    Your video attracts viewers willing to go there ! Singing loudly keeps you healthy aging .
    Communism succeeds the democrazic capitalism , showing the people's daily life !
    Democracy doesn't work in the Wests but it's Chinese democracy in reality . Don't you think so ?
    China was invaded by others in the past so people are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect their " Motherland " . Many communists' songs represent " United we stand " . Pain remains in the their hearts forever by generations !
    Military power doesn't represent army only but also the people !
    The Wests must understand this philosopy ! Economic sanctions against China never work !
    Any Japanese , visiting or working in China in any ages does feel sorrow to Chinese people even their TEXT BOOKS never teach a lesson of invasion and massacre during World war 2 in China but any of them knows the tragic history .
    ( Any Chinese all over the world has family membersor relatives or friends , killed during foreign troops invades in China ) .
    Chinese never let their children to attack others , Chinese foreign policies too ! So we don't need guns to protect our lives and personal property !
    Chinese people pocesses practical initiative of " Charity and mercy " to help the poor or the weak !
    這就是 共產主義 勝過 瘋狂資本主義西方自由民主 ! 共產式自由民主 表現在人民臉上 . 歷史的悲痛 代代流傳在人民心中 . 比起武力 不只是軍力 而是 人民的團結力量 能保衛國家 不惜為國犧牲 ! 經濟制裁中國 永遠無效 !
    認何日本人 旅遊 或 工作 在中國 心裡都有對不起中國人 雖然他們的教科書 不教導日本人 在二次世界大戰期間 侵略 / 大屠殺 中國人 . ( 全世界 任何 中國人 都有自己的家屬 或 親戚 朋友 在 二次大戰中 被侵略中國的外國士兵 殺害 ) .
    中國人 不允許 自己小孩 傷害他人 / 中國對外國政策也是如此 ! 所以 我們並不像 西方國家 住家需要槍械 保護生命 或 個人財產 !
    中國人 保有 慈悲 慈善 與 關懷弱勢 的主動實踐行為 !
