It would be more interesting to watch a video of your interaction with your said friends and family about this subject. It would be enlightening to see how they react. If possible, invite them to China and film their reactions.
Hi. Like your video.
By the way, the country that eats the most dogs per capita is Vietnam. 2nd is South Korea.
And yet, no-one talks about them!
As you say, dog eating simply *ISN'T* common in China. And yet, it's China that people think about when talking about dog eating!!

Chinese cities have drastically reduced air pollution level without compromising industrial production.
Green technologies as a result of collaborations with other industrial nations and indigenous R&D, and the 4th industrial revolution should be credited.
Mainland China understandably was a relative latecomer in the industrialization age as the first of its 5-year economic plan series came to practice since the 1950s against the backdrop of the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union.
And the very same Soviet Union and the rest of the Eastern bloc were instrumental in Chinese industrialization efforts, plus the friendly Western states led by Switzerland, the Nordics (Norway, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland) and, since 1962, France.
Professor Zhang Weiwei said that governments should be classified according to whether they are good or bad, that is, whether their purpose is beneficial to the majority of people in the country; they cannot be classified according to their form, such as whether they have elections or not, or whether they are democratic or not.
The ultimate goal of government management should be to make everyone in the country live comfortably. But in most current election governments, the people in power are only thinking about how to win the next election, and have no long-term plan for whether it is beneficial to the people. When there were more resources, the party who win the election can balance the benefit. But now that there are fewer resources and the country is highly competitive, election governments that only have slogans but cannot implement them, because they have no long-term plan and only consider the interests of their own party, the whole country has begun to have various problems.
Western politician only lies for the vote and never deliver what they promised!
Benefiting your citizens means nothing if you are simply trying to increase national power to threaten the entire world.
In the West, elections are money warfare events. Election campaigns are very expensive and politicians are funded by capitalists and big corporations. The biggest winners of elections are the donors who lobby for parties and leaders who will implement policies to favour them.
It's common knowledge that health care in the USA, Canada, and UK are terrible. It has been widely reported in Western media. We do not have to rely on personal experience and observation.

Just compare that to UK whose healthcare system is dysfunctional. I am not from UK but yesterday I watched a video of the on going election campaign in which voters asked shadow health ministers from different parties questions that concerned them about health services. A man who appeared to be in his late 50s narrated how his 88 year old mother had to wait for an ambulance for 9 hours after she fell down and injured herself. Other voters talked about how they had to wait for a year to see a general Dr or a specialist. That to me is a healthcare system that has collapsed.
这样的事件在中国是不可能发生的，让病人等9个小时，简直无法想象，因为中国有公立医院覆盖每个社区，只要拨打急救电话120，救护车🚑在几分钟之内必须到达，如果病情严重还可以给交警打电话，由交警免费护航， 不管是医院还是交警，谁敢玩忽职守是要承担法律责任，所以没人敢冒险，这可能就是社会主义国家的优越性。
@@佯谬你分析得非常好👍，正是如此，
The politicians in the UK are deliberatly mismanaging our healthcare so they can say it failed & allow US healthcare firms to come in buy it all & make us like the US
Our politicians work for the global rich (US in particular) not for our country or people

Unless I'm mistaken in 2023 China produced more Solar panels than the US total.
I mean "The US *total* .... ever"
Crazy stats
China produces 90% of solar panels in the entire world.
“Over capacity! More sanction!”
Over producing low quality goods is too easy, that's why the market is even able to stay alive. You can't expect them to last long and they'll cut corners as usual and you'll have cables that cannot run the required power output through them, which can cause a short and basically kill the damn device rendering it useless. Details like this is very important and it's lost on people who know very little to nothing about tech, they just see numbers and assume everything's all good because a lot of goods are produced. Quantity does not = Quality Over production isn't always a good thing because that is a lot of power used and if you have too much inventory left over now it's a waste and if you can't sell those goods your company is in trouble. There's so many nuances to this subject that is not given it's proper respect and we are pretending it's a virtue to produce a bunch of useless products. Until China or any country for that matter build a green truly green energy source, this whole discussion on the matter is a joke. if transporting solar panels is used by gas powered vehicles it is not truly green it still harms the enviornment, if the cars are electric and they run on Lithium Ion Batteries the cars are not truly green because the vehicles that harvest the lithum is not only running on oil but destroying the enviornment, it is not green. What is so difficult to understand about this subject? A smart Kid like you should be albe to figure it out but we keep playing these games of pretend as if solar panels do not harm the enviornment, their whole manufacturing process is harming the envniornment added to the fact China is still building power plants because their power keeps going out which is also having high impact on the enviornment.
yea because they get then shipped to the US and are used there while china still relies on poisoning people with coal power plants 😂😂
Horse meat is sold widely in Icelandic shops as a cheap substitute to beef. Donkey meat is used in numerous French salami. Just a few to quote.

Isn't Shanghai today the poshest city with the best quality of life that China has to offer though?
@@Antraeusdo the poshest cities of London, NYC, Berlin, Paris, etc. offer similar quality of life and medical care to Shanghai?
@@phavie1192 You are asking me if our best cities can compete with China's. What you are implying is that the Chinese government is concentrating its resources on Shanghai purely in order to look good. Which confirms my suspicion. They appear to be hoping for a miracle, namely that the rest of humanity buys the idea that the whole of China, including its 1.4 billion inhabitants have jumped ahead of the West in every way, shape and form when the reality is that it is mostly still a third world country. And that's fine! It takes time. We all understand this. Lies just make people look bad, not good. I'm sure you agree with this. After all, China possesses the most ancient wisdom in the whole world even though the Communists outlawed Daoism. I blame the West for all of China's ills myself. I can see what's happened. But surface paint will only hide rust temporarily. It is not a permanent solution. In fact, I can tell you right now that only spiritual groups can resolve these deep issues. And so...maybe we in the West have will one day have something of value to bestow upon a great land that we helped to destroy.

Here in Canada, my GP ordered an MRI of my head in December 2022. We never ever heard back from the hospital (one of the region's largest) although he sent in his request once again in 2023. He finally cancelled the whole thing a couple of months ago, 16 months after he'd made his initial request. Fortunately, my chronic headaches had to do with a very rare immunological problem and not a brain cancer, but the hospital has no means of knowing that. And since we don't keep track of such data, we have no idea how many people, who may have been helped if seen in time, have died from various cancers and other serious illnesses in my part of Ontario alone.
Some doctor never offer the alternative to their patients, as though they don't want you to get an MRI or CT at all. Meanwhile the patient keep coming back with same illness that they can't seem to figure out.
My friend's mom only found out she had cancer at old age due to some other illness where she landed in hospital for a CT scan. Her doctor had never offer her one and he had never figure out what was wrong with her pain. Horrible doctors and horrible under budget medical system.

In the UK, forget about the scan. You can't even see the GP on the same day, like the old days. As one patient I overheard say to the medical staff, by the time it's the day of the GP appointment, I could be dead from my ailment.
So sad
Agreed, when i was ill during X'mas period, phoned surgery tried to make appointment, told no appointment available same day and next day, then received a link directed to other local surgeries, by the end I just not bothered, so I bought cough medicines from supermarkets to cured the symptom.

Someplaces eat Guinea Pigs.
Horse meat is also sold in UK supermarkets ( not all obviously ).

There r reasons that have a tradition to eat dogs. Usually the very poor before modern society. There might some Chinese eats dogs yrs back. Now, they don't. Many rest. closed coz people r movement against dog eating in China. There r 1.4 billion people in China, very few eat dogs!
We have no right to critize people who eat dogs/cats regardless of their racial background. Descendents like Korea, Japan, VT Myanmarese, Thai's NW India r also eat dogs. Australians eat Kangaroos & Emu. Some Italians eat dogs. Some Switerzland people eat cats & dogs. Koreans & Vietnamese eat dogs. Some Indonesians & Philippines eat dogs too.

There are parts of U5 of A, in some deep southern states, road kill, alligators, turtles, snakes is eaten too.. but they never gets a point fingers at them. 🤔
There’s so much of Western BIAS, double standard, sheer hypocrisy.🤨
But in those countries you have mentioned. To the western countries politicians and people, it is OK they eat dogs. But not China.
Reason. Those countries they are not strong enough to challenge the west and the west don't see them as having any threat to the western supremacists. But China.
Unfortunately, there are many Americans, British and Aussies, eat human too. Look at the past 200 years, how many natives had been eaten by them, the natives are almost exterminated like the Bisons & Emus.
I understand that the focus of this video is to dispel people's misconceptions about China, but I believe it's more important to start from the facts.
Chinese people do eat dog meat, and this is true both historically and in modern times. Many regions, including East Asia, Southeast Asia, West Africa, Europe, Oceania, and the Americas, have had histories of consuming dog meat. In East Asia and Southeast Asia, it is still commonly practiced today. While it's not a mainstream dietary culture, it is also not so rare as to be invisible. I personally enjoy eating dog meat. If you haven't seen it, it might be because your background and social circle have limited your exposure to this aspect.
Recently, the consumption of dog meat has decreased, mainly due to the influence of Western pet culture, which has led to a lot of opposition. However, it is far from rare.
I love eating meat, and I also love pets. Traditional Chinese views do not see these two things as conflicting. Just as chickens, ducks, pigs, and fish are mainstream meat animals, many people still keep them as pets. Pigs are also highly intelligent animals, but they do not conform to human living habits like dogs. Should we ban others from eating duck meat just because call ducks have become more popular as pets?
Moreover, the history of Chinese people eating dog meat spans thousands of years, long before the popularity of modern pet dog culture. The supply chain for meat dogs is no different from that for other livestock, and it does not involve cruelty or the spread of diseases. Modern pet dog culture, due to breeding practices, involves much more cruelty.
This is not a matter of principle but rather a cultural conflict. There is an old Chinese saying, "君子远庖厨[A gentleman stays away from the kitchen]," which encourages people with excessive compassion to avoid interfering with slaughter and kitchen affairs and instead use their moral qualities to focus on human development. I think the key lies in respect and understanding.
Thanks for speaking the truth and not the usual negative western propaganda....Malaysian viewer.

Just a few but relevant and important information to combat many of the politically motivated false news . Thank you. Just subscribed.
If the west treat dogs as close relatives we respect that and do not consider it as a demise of human dignity since in our cultural dogs are just another livestock, no different than pigs.
I don't find dog meat particularly tasty but I see no reason why pet animal should have superior right than other animals. That is I can't eat certain meat because someone has an affection on their kind. It's a violation of my freedom.
As a Chinese, I'd say it is racism to judge other culture's freedom of eating by one's own tradition.
In China, eating dog meat is strictly forbidden now in most of the tier-1 cities. To my understanding, the are many reasons to ban dog meat consumption behind. One of these is the chance of spreading uncontrollable infectious diseases.

Thank you for telling the world the truth about China in your eloquent account.
China is very very poor country about 30 years ago. They have food to eat in that time they are eating anything. Now they have no problem. Now Chinese food is extremely good and healthy.....
I appreciate having a positive perspective on China, as the negative aspects are surely exaggerated and overemphasized in the West. I also think the videos are well structured and pleasant and interesting to watch.
However, the perspectives feel soo positive and sort of one-sided to me that I can't help but feel that this is also propaganda or at least very biased, and therefore I feel like I have to be skeptical of your perspectives.
One thing that made me feel skeptical is what you said about surveillance cameras, I'd say the reason surveillance is something people in the in the west see critically is because it puts power into the hands of the government to micromanage our behaviour, which they might abuse, and also because privacy is seen as a "human right" in the west.
The sentiment of "I'm not a criminal so why would I worry about it" which you talked about in the video really kind of missed the point of why people are worried about surveillance in the west.
Also, in the video you said that China is presented as a surveillance state because of their survellance cameras while the UK is not critized in the same way even though it has higher concentration of surveillance cameras. Personally, (as a German) I've heard a lot of criticism about the surveillance cameras in the UK than the ones in China. So I wonder why you seem to have such a different impression.
However one argument I could see for accepting surveillance cameras in China is that the worries that westerners have about surveillance are largely based on mistrust of the government not to abuse their power and on privacy being seen as a "fundamental human right". If the Chinese people don't see it as a "fundamental human right" and if they have trust that the government is and will stay benevolent no matter how much power they have, then it makes sense that they are not concerned about surveillance in the same way westerners might be.
It's simple. Go to China to see it for yourself, it will solve your "sceptical issue". How many people does it take to monitor 1.4b people?

Tofu Dreg constructions are constructions by corrupt firms who build buildings below their stated quality.
These often consist of higher ups who siphon funds off the allotted budget, leaving the resulting building very much unfinished or in poor condition.
These result in abandoned buildings, most which would eventually be demolished.
As a result of crackdowns in recent years, tofu dreg constructions are harder and harder to come by.

I believe there are some cities in China still eat dogs. Maybe not as many, but in the southern provinces and Vietnam.
Some minority areas do. But it's fairly rare amongst the Han Chinese population.
The West talks as if dogs are in danger in China. That's just nonsense.
By the way, the country that eats the most dogs per capita is Vietnam. 2nd is South Korea.
And yet, no-one talks about them.
So what, don't eat beef! The cow is holy in India!
Uhhhh If you have a fancy for puppy soup South Korea is the place for you. There's a out right ban in cities like shenzhen and zhuhai. And the internet shown a lot of people getting beaten up publicly for trying to steal people's puppies in recent years... So I guess it's frowned upon these days.
@yuanshuan7099: There are companies i the United States that sell exotic animal meat of all sorts for eating. This does NOT mean the US is known for eating animals that most of the world would find astonishing. For you to say that "some cities in China still eat dogs" implies that everyone in those cities do it. Don't spread mis-information by generalizing the population of cities or entire countries. This is absolutely NOT true. There may be less than 1% in a place where it is even allowed at all. Western countries are excellent at negative propaganda against China, much of it is mis-information to ignorant western citizens who believe it. Go to China yourself.

In fact, it is quite speechless. Foreign media always distort and slander China in various ways. I was in China. Unfortunately, I got a lung infection last year. I didn’t plan to go to the hospital and relied on my own immunity to eliminate the inflammation. It was not because I was worried about the hospital fees, but I hoped that my own immunity would become stronger.
Then I couldn’t stand the cough for 2 months. I was afraid that there would be too many people, so I made an appointment at Futian District People’s Hospital one day in advance. The next morning, I took my social security card and ID card to the hospital, queued for half an hour to get a number to see the doctor, and then went to take a lung X-ray. After waiting for about an hour and a half, I got my lung X-ray. After the doctor looked at it, he diagnosed me with chronic bronchitis according to my condition and prescribed some drugs for treating bronchial and asthma and anti-inflammatory drugs.
Then I left the hospital. After using the drugs, my condition stabilized and there was no recurrence. This is the efficiency of Chinese hospitals. The total cost of using the social security card was only about 100 CNY (14-15 USD)
Then last month, I still felt a little uncomfortable because of smoking, so I went to a regular pharmacy on the street (not a hospital) to buy the same medicine, and the cost was as high as 200+CNY... Here is a suggestion for everyone: quit smoking as soon as possible - -
Just a side note : in Swiss ppl also eat dogs n cats, or shall we say "traditionally" . Beyond your belief? Just google it or talk to some of your friends on the ground.

I've visited China many times. I've generally found the air to be clean. Does China still have air quality problems in some places? Probably, but it's a lot better than it was a decade ago. And it continues to improve.
I’ve been to China on several occasions and have traveled through the country on the bullet trains. There are plenty of wind farms and solar panels. China is clean and very safe in my experience. Dog meat isn’t confined to China, also eaten in South Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia etc though when visiting these places I’ve never seen anyone eating it. Australia tells its population to practice a ‘high degree of caution’ in China. I haven’t had or witnessed any problems in the country. Go figure
Your are correct about the health system here in China, I'm a Kiwi living in China and have been here for a decade, in fact I'm off to hospital tomorrow for an annual check up, booked in 3 days ago, scan, xray, bloods and what ever else is necessary, if all goes well I should be done in a couple of hours and have all the results. You did mention eating habits, where I live in Qingyuan turtle meat is common but like eating your shoe, dogs and cats are available in some shonky markets but I would never eat it, keep up with your vlogs they are educational to the ignorant 🙏🙏🙏🇨🇳

Deer meat is healthy and fairly fat-free.

I am Taiwanese, now living in the USA, Compared to the medical system, Taiwan is superior to the USA. In Taiwan, you can go to a hospital and get Medicare with no need for an appointment, in some special;l cases if you need an appointment, it usually takes less than a week you get it. But in the USA you need to make an appointment two to three months ahead. Compare the cost of medicine and medicare, The USA is 15 to 30 times higher than the Twaiwn. I read some news complaining that the prices of medicines are the highest in the world.
Actually 15 to 30 times higher than Taiwan means Taiwan is actually not cheap at all.
In fact, quite expensive comparing to mainland China 😅
I think most places are better than US healthcare system
I am from Taiwan and live in the US. I work in healthcare in the US and disagree with you about Taiwan being better than US. Taiwan is better for non serious diseases but really poor for serious diseases. For example, checkpoint inhibitors and other immuno-oncology drugs are game changers in cancer treatment and saved lives of people with late stage cancers. However, they are expensive and costs $125k-$250k per treatment. In a clinical trial, CAR-T therapy cured heme cancers on about 96% of children. Taiwan waited years before purchasing one of the most important cancer treatments. There are many drugs that are expensive and can save lives but Taiwanese government won't buy them, and as a result, people are dying from serious diseases where there are already treatments. And no, you don't have to wait months to see your doctor. Usually, it's a week to a month long process in the US, but for an emergency, you can go to any hospital. Finally, yes, US healthcare is expensive but most people have health insurance, which is about $12k a year. For people who are under 65 years, there is a cap on the maximum you can pay for health insurance. Most horror stories are from people who don't have health insurance.
@@ching-yi2007 Health insurance for US$12,000 a year??
That would be US$1,000 per month! Are you really sure most people health insurance?
@@ChinaSongsCollection Yes, healthcare insurance is expensive because the average working person spends about $1,000 per month, so the insurance company has to priced it above $1,000. This does not include the fact that there are deductibles, co-pays and up to $9,450 a year (legally this number changes every year) you can still pay despite paying $1,000 per month. However, if you work for a company of a certain size and work full-time, the company is required to pay half of your commercial insurance, so you are actually paying $500 per month. If you are self-employed and make below a certain income, the state government can subsidize your healthcare plan on Marketplace. If you are indigent and have no money, the local government has Medicaid, which pays 100% of your insurance. If you are 65 and older, you can get Medicare, which is subsidized by the government. Medical care is expensive but if you have a serious illness, US is the best place for serious illness.
Regarding medical issues, I once read an interesting theory. Because China has such a large population, their doctors can see many more cases than those in other countries. An ordinary outpatient doctor may see more patients in a month than in other countries in a year. So, just from this perspective, China's medical system is trustworthy.
In the cities there are good medical facilities. In the rural areas, which is the majority, there is a very poor healthcare system.
@@robinhazell6019 I would like to ask, in your country, is there a large comprehensive hospital in every rural area?
@@horaceleung8646 No. But I am not the person making videos about how great my country is.
@@robinhazell6019 The problem is not how great my country is, but how badly it is portrayed by your media. Just like what you said, you don't know the actual situation in China at all, and then you draw a conclusion that China's rural medical system is very poor. Isn't this something you need to think about?
@@horaceleung8646 Not at all. I have many contacts in China who keep me upto date with what is going on.
Only criminals scare of cctv, As for me I love many cctv in public places I feel safe,as long as in not in my house or apartment
I've been living in China for 11 years now-Shanghai, Nanjing and Nantong, and have travelled around many other provinces, and I can say with 100% certainty that China is as near to perfect as a country should be. I can also attest to the fact that the pollution levels have decreased. I recall my first winter in Shanghai in 2013 where we couldn't see more than 1 meter in front of us due to pollution. Now, it is soooo much better.
Thank you, Harvey, for speaking truths about China. I just came back from Guangdong Province. Yes, it's clean and safe👍👍👍
Not polished Chinese propaganda then? Sounds too good to be true.
@@Antraeus欢迎来中国旅游，你会发现他说的是真的
🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼
Harvey, your Sincerity is Admirable.
🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼
Yes - so many misconceptions about China! Best way is for people to visit China to see it for themselves
I am a local Chinese in Hong Kong. My view:
Healthcare - Harvey is right
Pollution - in Shenzhen, I suspect 99% cars on the road are electric, so the air feels clean even on a busy 8 lane road.
Eating dogs - yes, this is very very rare nowadays cos other more tastier meat are in abundance and cheap. Actually not all dogs are edible, we belief, only a certain breed is, its pure black in color. Maybe one can still try it, but only in very very rural remote village, for fun only. I think dog meat is more common in Korea than China, though they just recently passed a bill to ban it.
Cleanliness - Harvey is correct. But one point he misses perhaps is public toilet, which not a lot of foreigners can get used to, especially women, cos a lot of toilets are the sqatting type. In ladies toilet, you may find ⅔ of the toilet are squat ones and only ⅓ or none are the normal 'chair' type.
In terms of surveillance cameras, I love the way China adopted. I feel very safe walking around town even in the middle of the night. The more cameras the better. BTW, I'm from Hong Kong China too
Most Asian prefer squatting toilet,more hygiene
Always travel to the places where you consider to stay long period of time….don’t just move and abandon everything, some might like China and some might not, but that’s for them to find out…China always welcome people with open arms and all you need is open mind!
You are a very well spoken, intelligent young man. I am 73 and love watching your videos. You show China in a very different way.
Would you mind telling me how you got to China, what you have to do to get a visa, what you do there for a living, how you rent an apartment etc…. I have m any young friends interested in going there. Ah and do you speak Chinese..
?
Thanks for watching. If you have an undergraduate or a postgraduate degree, it’s fairly easy. You just need to find a job in your field, apply for it, be successful, and then apply for the working visa
来中国不需要说汉语，你所见到的一切路标都有英文，并且很多年轻人会说简单的英语，在交流上完全没问题，旅游地点的酒店大概300人民币一天，非旅游地有100人民币的，在中国如果你遇到困难，陌生人会非常愿意给你帮助
Thanks for sharing the truth 🙏
Need more of your videos to spread the message 👍
Dog meat is available in China and there are some dog meat restaurants but getting very rare. I have eaten turtle meat, my wife cooked it at home.
Simple truth,easily explain & understandable😊
Social media creators, especially Chinese and expat foreigners, should be credited the most.
And there are intellectuals and scholars too riding on the waves.
One should even study algorithms and related strategies of every social platform to how to generate views and shares.
And translations/subtitles into multiple languages for audiences who doesn’t speak Chinese and English
Coming from differing culture, we do well to accept others' cultures. There is no good reason to impose our culture on others nor to feel disdain. One man's poison is another man's meat (food).
As an airline pilot I have seen many countries and find no people happier than Chinese.
I have seen groups of people dancing in parks at -10 degrees temperature at night.
In New Zealand, due to the shortage of public medical resources, it takes a long time to get a general physical examination. My daughter had abdominal pain, and after the GP check-up, it took a month to make an appointment for a B-ultrasound. In Shanghai, in a similar situation, my daughter also had abdominal pain, so we took her directly to a tertiary hospital near our home. It only took 4 hours from registration, doctor's examination, B-ultrasound examination, to communicating with the doctor about the implementation plan.
基本上当天都会检查完，除非那天需要检查的太多导致延误，无论你相信不相信，在中国任何一个小城市你都会得到当天的检查和医治
The donkey sandwiches are great! “Thanks for washing!”
Once again Great video Harvey.
Good for you for telling truths about China.
If you have nothing to hide, why scared of the cameras?
Is it true that AI is taking over or help doctors in China?
是的，我弟弟是个程序员，在一家医疗器械公司上班
In traditional Chinese concepts, dogs are regarded as livestock similar in status to pigs, cows, and sheep, rather than pets. Therefore, eating dog meat is accepted by everyone just like eating beef or pork. However, despite this, eating dog meat is not common in modern society, mainly because after entering the industrialized society, dogs have transformed from tools for guarding homes to companion animals. At present, in the Korean ethnic group in the Northeast, as well as in Guangxi Yulin and other regions, there is still a custom of eating dog meat, which is a local traditional custom. In other areas, it is very rare.
Considering that China is a vast country with a geographical area（Russia not included） and population that surpasses the entirety of Europe, it is not surprising that some places retain unique customs.
Yes. Nearly 75% of Yulin residents eat dog and cats, and nearly a dozen other provinces consume dogs as well. The estimate is 10 million dogs and 4 million cats every year are eaten in China. Because the young man personally didn’t see it happen doesn’t mean that it doesn’t happen. Bamboo rats are also a delicacy. (Personally, I don’t care what they eat but it seems very dishonest to pretend that Chinese people don’t eat these meats at all)And there is even an annual dog meat festival in Yulin. The fact that your comment is true but only got two likes tells me that most people run away from facts and reality whenever they get the chance.
That’s interesting! As I said, it’s a misconception that Chinese people on the whole generally eat dog meat. As I have gathered from replies, it happens around the country to an extent - but to put it into context, 800million chickens are consumed in Guangdong annually, just one province.
I’m not denying it happens, just refuting the idea that it’s widespread practice!
@@Harveyinchina Eating dog meat is pretty common in South Korea too but you don't hear westerners complaining about it. There are thousands of restaurants in Korea selling dog meat. it was only recently that the Korean government passed a law to ban dog meat from 2027.

Dog is eaten in China. There's one breed that's breed for this purpose, they are never made a pet like other dog breeds.
So paying privately for healthcare in China, you get good healthcare. This happens in many countries - Malaysia, Mexico, Jordan etc. It is not specific to China. What happens at a free government hospital? Does it exist? How is the service? Then compare that go the NHS.
China is the world's largest importer of contraband animal parts smuggled into the country for traditional medicine. Elephant tusks, pangolins, bear and tiger parts etc. Whether they still eat dogs and cats - there are serious problems with regard to animals.
China is a surveillance state. By definition, this practice intrudes into the privacy of people being surveilled whether you 'feel' it or not. Your position is like someone who is routinely spied in their home on by voyeurs but you are unaware of it.
Pollution has declined in China but Chinese cities are well represented in the 100 most polluted cities on the planet.
China is not as bad as the western establishment likes to portray but nor is it as positive for the average Chinese as many youtubers like to show. In 2023 there was a record number of Chinese trying to enter the US through the Mexican border claiming asylum. Young people in China are increasingly 'lying flat'. Why? It's not all roses. But undoubtedly they do a lot of things better than western clubtries.
1. Hospitals in China are subsidised by the government, for the people. The only experiences of hospitals I have had in China are these public hospitals. The NHS ISNT free - it’s paid for with 40% of UK tax money. Tax money in China subsides healthcare, gives people MRI scans and next day appointments with doctors for ¥30 but ALSO builds fantastic cross country bulletin train networks, airports in every city, public transportation and funds many other things.
2. Is that per capita? Because 1.4bn people will import a lot of stuff, of course.
3. Yes, theres a lot of surveillance in China, I think it’s great, it helps to prevent bad stuff happening to people. I can leave my house unlocked and my bicycle on the street. I can leave my laptop unattended in a cafe whilst I go to the toilet. It might be a trade off in return for having a little less privacy in public, but for someone not committing any crimes, it a a trade off I’m willing to have. But how am I being spied upon in my home, in the absence of cameras?
4. Are they? I’ll take your word for that, but you’re not operating on a high level of understanding here. The world outsources their production to China. China is the world’s factory. Factories emit pollution. Therefore, the world is outsourcing their pollution to China. China is leading the world in renewables.
Just my 2 cents
@@Harveyinchina Clearly you have an extremely rosy view of China that you want to disseminate. Good luck to you.
我是中国人，大街上有监控的主要目的是在你被侵害的时候，警察会调取监控来以此作为证据，当你的东西丢失的时候会调取监控查找，，监控拍摄的内容会在一定的时间内删除，，在繁忙的街道和路口会有监控，私人住宅是不容许的，对犯罪分子来说监控会降低他们的犯罪，对公民来说监控可以保护个人资产
Good or bad, highly depends on how much you can make in Chinese cities
Turtles are eaten in my country, Singapore.

When you are in China, are you living in 廣西 GuangXi?
The govt filtered all info about serious flooding in that area.
If you feel comfortable to live like that. Nothing more to say.
It's really filtered. How do you know?
I saw those flood news on CGTN (Chinese state media). Nothing more to say.
why your name is computer? how many?
当你被媒体告诉你政府过滤了信息的时候，你已经被媒体所欺骗了，因为这个新闻我看到过
