Which system do you think is better to fight off a pandemic?
A system which is really thinking about its citizens. A system which citizens all understand that they have the responsibility to others.
The key thing is public trust and community responsiblity. Look at South Korea, New Zealand, or dare I say it Taiwan, they're doing fine while still being multi-party democracies because the public trust the government. The same applies to the way people in China trust the CCP to take the right actions.
The system that doesn't create an pandemic in the first place, and government that educates it's citizens about hygiene, that might help !!
Always putting that spin on it😂
Did you report Taiwan is giving another stimulus to boost the economy? I can get a link for yah?
A Competent One.
During January, the onslaught in the Western media, notably the US and the UK, against the Chinese government’s handling of the Covid-19 epidemic, was merciless. The Chinese government stood accused of an inhumane attitude towards its people, secrecy, a cover-up, and an overwhelming concern for its own survival above all other considerations. The actual evidence was thin bordering at times on the threadbare, but this made little difference to the venom and bile of the assault.
Certainly, it seems clear, there was a deliberate attempt to forestall and hinder the necessary timely action in Wuhan, and more widely in Hubei, but with the benefit of hindsight the time lost as a result proved relatively marginal compared with that lost in the West in their belief that it could not possibly happen to them, that China was to blame, and in their failure to learn from China’s experience.
To have used the tragedy of the coronavirus epidemic, with all the deaths, illness and suffering that ensued, as a stick with which to beat the Chinese government - and the Chinese people - was nothing short of a disgrace. When the Chinese needed compassion, support, and solidarity, they received ridicule, calumny and barely concealed racism. One might ask why this was. Western prejudice against China is historically deeply rooted and continues to influence contemporary Western attitudes. Over the last few years, however, especially since around 2016, the incidence of China-bashing has become much more common. There has been a growing sense of resentment towards China’s rise, especially and predictably in the US, but elsewhere too, combined with a desire to reassert and restore the old global pecking order and the established economic, political and ethnic hierarchies.
The main subject of China-bashing has been its governing system. The coronavirus epidemic offered, on the surface at least, ideal ground on which to attack China’s governance: it was covering up, it didn’t care, its own survival came first. How wrong and misconceived these West prejudices proved to be. After initial dithering, hesitation, and wrong turns, once China grasped the nature and profound dangers that the virus posed for the Chinese people, its approach was nothing short of brilliant, an example and inspiration for all. For China, we must never forget that it was an entirely new and mysterious challenge. All subsequent countries could learn from China’s experience. China did not even know what the virus was. It had to establish that it was entirely new and work out its genome and its characteristics, which it immediately shared with the world. And it grasped with a remarkable alacrity that the epidemic required the most dramatic measures, including the lockdown not just of Wuhan but all major cities and most of the country, and quarantining the population. The government understood that life came before the economy. Its extraordinary and decisive leadership met with an equally extraordinary and proactive response from the people: it was a classic case of the government and the people as one.
The results are there for all to see. New cases have been reduced to a trickle. Slowly, step by step, the economy has been rekindled. Bit by bit China has come back to normal. For those wanting to avoid coronavirus, China is now the safest place on earth. Indeed, China’s problem is fast becoming visiting foreign tourists suffering from the virus and reintroducing it into their country. Meanwhile, Europe and North America are facing a coronavirus tsunami: The US is the worst case by far but others such as Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and the UK are rapidly following in its slipstream. The West - and, above all, its people - are destined to pay a huge price for its hubris, its belief that coronavirus was a Chinese problem that could never become a Western problem. Too late, alas, having wasted all the time that China gave them, all the knowledge that China had acquired on how to tackle the virus, Western governments are now faced with a fearful challenge. Back in January they accused the Chinese government of wasting a fortnight; now it is revealed to the world that Western governments wasted a minimum of half a year.
The tide has turned. In the greatest health crisis for one hundred years, China’s governance has risen to the challenge and delivered a mortal blow to coronavirus. In contrast, Western governance has proven to be blinded by its own hubris, unable to learn from China until far too late, ill-equipped to grasp the kind of radical action that is required of it. America is still largely in denial and incompetence, while the UK government is acting far too late. I cannot think of any other example which so patently reveals the sheer competence and capacity of Chinese governance and the inferiority and infirmity of Western governance. In their hour of need, the latter has let their peoples down. Meanwhile, the Western criticism of China has fallen almost, but not quite entirely, silent. They have no alternative, as Europe shows, but to learn from China’s “Draconian” measures. What else can they do? China has succeeded. They have, in truth, nowhere else to turn. Learn from China, they must. But for many it is a bitter pill to swallow. The wheels of history are turning, irresistibly, towards China. And China must respond in humility by offering all the assistance and experience it can offer the West.
What a great analysis, thank you so much for sharing it..
Very simple logic that many western people and politicians could not understand is survival first before any rights . It is more ridiculous that no one there admit they were so stupid while they were handle the covid. This is the real case “blind leading blind” from the Bible. It seems God had already prepared for these people.
I agree with you totally, well thought out and articulated. Thank you!

Dont forget we also walk all over the house in shoes we walked in the streets with. Thats westerners lifestyle for you. British openly said themselves they never realised how lacking in hygene they were until the virus, so its helped them realise that..
Not just China but east Asian in general.. Almost all people shower and wash every single day. In korea multiple times a day. Before sex, after sex.. Before jumping in bed, this goes even for rural china..
On average, the unwashed should have higher natural immunity. Reinforced by people keeping away from them.
@@Tank1 That's not the most deadly key point. The most killing thing is that the virus has been used as a political weapon for parties in western countries to beat those who don't agree with their thoughts during the election w/e.
BTW. I'm Chinese living in Korea right now. Korea has around 500+ new cases everyday since last week. I don't think they've had it under control .
Actually, where I am, in Australia which is a western country, there are now almost no new cases of the virus anymore. This is because the people were quite serious about the lockdown and they made sure that they isolated themselves according to the rules set by government. There was a second wave which was mainly confined to the state of Victoria but that's gone now. This is because the Victorian state government introduced very strict lockdowns to bring the number of new daily cases to almost zero. Now, even one new case in Australia is considered serious! There is now a "travel bubble" with NZ, another western country with almost zero new daily cases. There is also a clinical trial for a vaccine underway and it should be completed soon. Australia is also expected soon to have several "travel bubbles" with Asian countries, where new cases are low. Australia is nothing like Canada, Europe or the US where the numbers of cases have gone out of control.

I quite agree with you, as an international student in America. I stay at home with Fear and uneasiness .
As a Chinese living in Germany since 15 years, I would say the culture difference also plays a role. If you watch closely, Asian countries, especially countries which is greatly impacted by the east Asian culture, are better at fighting the pandemic.
In general, eastern culture tends to be more collective minded, long-term oriented and every individual shall follow the decisions made by the leaders, either in a company or from the government, the leaders will try hard to convey the message throughout the whole organization, convince everyone and make sure it is consistence. Whereas in the western world, the so call "democracy" plays a huge role, both in business and political system.
During the pandemic, I saw German parties debating everyday about every decision, no matter what measurement is taken, there will be an opposition party JUST want to say something. A lot of politicians only say what favors the people to gain political influence. In general, the majority of people CAN'T NOT comprehend complex topic, which means, if a politician choose a scientific way to deal with a complex issue like the pandemic, he is going to risk A LOT, because the people will not be able to understand his viewpoint quickly and the opposition can attack him very easily.
I believe the western system with this kind of mindset will have difficulties if any challenge is coming, like the pandemic or huge jobless due to economic success in the developing countries.
"Libertarianism is an attempt to rationalize selfishness." These days, some people here in the U.S. try their best to prove this.

A ustedes les están lavando cabeza. Que pendejos estan.
It's simple but true. Here in New Zealand the slogan "team of five million" was used to rally people to defeat the virus.
We locked down and adds kept popping up talking about social distancing, with the slogan being "stay in your bubble", washing your hands, coughing into your elbow (at this stage we had a mask shortage and there was a priority on securing them for nurses so their usage wasn't being publicly encouraged), avoiding touching surfaces, and sanitation stations popped up at chemists, supermarkets, etc
Director General of Health Ashley Bloomfield gave public briefing every day. I remember him telling people not to get discouraged, that the lockdowns were working, when deaths and cases kept rising after we had started our nation wide lockdown, because symptoms and deaths lagged, and sure enough cases and then deaths started to decline two or three weeks in.
I think it took about seven weeks before we felt secure community transmission was eliminated.
Since then just border cases apart from a couple of breaches that led to minor partial shutdowns that got successfully snuffed out.
Australia haven't done too bad either. Biting the bullet certainly pays off and at the end of the day, saves lives.

@@dagsmoko3889 About Western democracy, why do you think that allowing ordinary people to participate in political decisions that will impact the country's future, is a good idea? Ordinary people are fickle and they make poor voters for several reasons:
-Ordinary people may not vote responsibly (i.e. They may not turn up to vote, or they submit blank votes)
-Ordinary people may base their vote on emotions, not logic (i.e. Many British don't like immigrants, so majority voted for Brexit)
-Ordinary people are susceptible to foreign influences (i.e. Russian interference in US elections)
-Ordinary people may simply lack awareness of the country's real political situation, to make informed decisions regarding the country's future.
There's a host of other problems associated with democracy, so why not let those who know how to govern, govern? That's what China is doing and look at how successful China is.

You’re doing such a good job , how I wish people in Taiwan will get to know more truth about China by watching your videos, speaking of which , I found it hard to believe only 199K subscribers ? You deserve far more Than that !!!
It’s actually meritocracy vs hypocrisy
@曨昊 really? What experience does Trump has to become president?
@曨昊 US job numbers are fake. Anyone unemployed for more than 6 months will not be counted as looking for a job. Andrew Yang Explained it really well. In reality, employment in the US is at its lowest even before covid. Only 60+% of able bodied Americans are working. Which is equivalent to Honduras
@曨昊 and stop changing topics. My 1st reply above proved that democracy isn't based on Meritocracy but popularism.
You just need to be popular to be a politicians in most democracies including USA. Experience not needed.
Where else the China political model requires both. 1st You get voted in at town and village elections by the people but 2ndly, you need to show results and voted to the next level by your peers. No one can become Premier of China without at least manage several large province or major cities like Shanghai.
And that's what's Meritocracy looks like
@曨昊 Trump have SOME ''skills'' does not equal to real hands on experiences in a meritocracy, all he has done was managing a small numbers of businesses many actually failed, but to be the president of China you need to have had experiences in managing several provinces each equivalent to an European country successfully. Apart from Trump's own words he is a stable genius, in actual fact he is everything but that.
@曨昊 bot countering very positive comment about China with mare lies
After going through the comments here, I think that this vid's title is a bit misleading. The success to beating the virus, is a good government, delivery of the correct communication and direction, the unity of the people, the understanding that the virus is a danger. Also that, once the virus is beaten, the measures that needs to be in place to prevent further outbreaks.
Yes, Taiwan and Viet Nam got it right.
I agree and disagree,I'm afraid our government have set tough measures ,but the stats are that the younger generation can carry the virus with a a very small % dying,so they are not taking this serious enough,but hey they still have to feed there family's and pay the rent,and locking them up is a Draconian act,what works in the east does not work in the west,also having the sars virus,you were more prepared 👍
@@dagsmoko3889 Taiwan is part of China (under Taiwan's constitution) and Vietnam is a communist country so you're praising communism right? Good for you to see the truth at last.
@@dagsmoko3889 I suspect the cases in Taiwan. They claim there is no local case but there are more than thirty export cases in past months. Interesting.
@@zhd1655 According to the Covid worldometer Taiwan has 3 new cases, and 651 total. The 'export' cases will be an assortment of recovered people who still test +ve, asymptomatic not tested, foreigners entering and leaving, or uncertainty over origin of an infection(defaults to origin of passenger). 30 is less than the numbers coming out of most other countries over a period of months. On 31Dec19 Taiwan started screening passengers out of China for symptoms of illness, activated their central emergency centre on Jan2. and started to quarantine unwell arrivals before Wuhan went into official lockdown. They were faster and better prepared than any other country.
Actually, I think Journalists are to blame as well, here in Europe they always take an antigovernment Stand.
A recently returned (from UK) British friend of mine (I live in Zhuhai) said that the NHS tests are 95% ineffective. 95%!!! It is no wonder that the Chinese government have temporarily banned people returning from the UK with a track record like that.
Also, we're hearing a lot in the western media about the vaccine developed by Pfizer (90% effective) and Oxford University (70% effective but cheaper) and nothing about the Sinopharm vaccine which is so far 100% effective in 56,000 test cases. Yes, Sinopharm is a Chinese government backed corporation. Is there a lesson in this?
I agree the UK government has sent out an inconsistent message but the reasos for this are a bit obscure, given the information we now have about the virus; I have a long memory for the early days of the CV epidemic in the UK when Michael Gove made a blatant accusation of the Chinese government lying about the extent of the problem. This was purely made to save the UK government 'face' and I'm afraid that this has coloured their response since then as they would have to admit their total cock up in the early stages.
Those believing in the blatant accusation must be nuts. China swiftly enforced entire lock down to the detriment of their economy as soon the early fews days of pandemic. Is this not enough to tell the people in the West the seriousness of the pandemic?
@曨昊 Well perhaps I am mixing up two reports here, but the one I quoted at 56,000 test cases reported only two weeks ago that none were infected, i.e. 100% effective vaccine - at that point. If I incorrectly stated that this was Sinopharm when it was in fact another Chinese institution responsible, my apologies for the error, but I thought I had read that this was the Sinopharm vaccine. Any further clarification that you can provide would be most welcome.
Your bold statement and prognosis would make the West real mad

西方民众就是一开始听川建国政府的啊😂，主要是他们的政府一开始不作为，等到疫情严重了想解决都控制不了。。。只能继续不作为下去了
@@baiwunan 建国同志是个特殊例子，他不算！而且他在后期也开始号召戴口罩！但是那个时候已经没用了🙈
@@user-we5mb3cl2q 别忘了还有民主党一开始还反对他对欧美地区禁航，只让他禁了中国。直到现在纽约州长Cuomo还说不会相信联邦政府批准的疫苗（FDA批准的东西还能有问题不成？！），要纽约州自己再检查一次才行。简直恶心到爆
但是你要搞清楚西方民众为什么日常怀疑政府，就是因为多党制搞党争，为了选举大搞民粹，造成社会撕裂，压根形成不了凝聚力！

其实每一种体制都有其优点和缺点，关键在于执政党能够发挥其体制的优点，做正确的事
在野黨會讓執政黨舒舒服服執政?

The advantage of the one-party system is to believe in science and authority. At the same time, the government can formulate a rigorous anti-epidemic plan and require all people to abide by these regulations. Western countries like to politicize the epidemic, and even masks can become a point of attack between opposition and ruling parties. In addition, people in Asian countries generally believe in authority, and people are generally willing to believe in the government, but people in Western countries .They generally advocate individual liberalism and generally have no sense of social responsibility. They believe that free breathing is their own freedom. Wearing a mask? impossible! And many people in Western countries would rather believe in conspiracy theories than in authority. For example, in the United States, some people would rather believe that there are wiretap antennas in masks than believe in Dr. Fauci's advice.
Good point , hope UK and US can learn from your vlog !
It’s hard for a government to choose the best way to lock down both of the Virus and the people, and it’s also very hard for us to choose the best system to stop the pandemic, but everyone have to choose the responsible, cooperative and scientific way to live a better life.
謝謝這兩位老哥！

WA Government and WA people did a really great job. Now you guys deserve a better life and freedom. Looking at Sydney where I live, the situation is getting worse again.
一党专政当然有很多缺点. 但是我们在反省前进与改革。 看看60年前的中共，再看看现在。 看看60年前的美国体制 再看看现在。 我们在改变，在探寻属于自己的制度。 美国呢？他们高傲，他们不会反思，建制派统治着美国，利益的受益者不会允许美国改革。
最后我想对同胞说：民主是一个值得探讨的议题， 但美式民主绝对不是中国的未来。 中国应该稳定中探索属于自己的中国式民主。
中国人对非典有敏感的记忆，因此高强度对待新冠是符合大众认知的。但如果有的国家认为新冠是一种流感，松懈也就顺理成章。此外，中国人也对于生存和发展有更明晰的集体记忆。
扯远一点，这种有效治理主要还是中国大部分人口具备接近的共识，这其实得益于1949年以来的国族认同建构。三个代表意味着这一个党向着全民党的迈进，而不是一个僵化的利益集团（希望它继续努力）。如果中国的人口结构和文化背景非常分散，美国式的民主就会变成政治极化和分离主义的温床。但如果在美国，哪里能找到一个党派来代表美国人呢？在文化更单一、发声渠道更少、工业生产联系没有那么紧密的时代，“民主国家”并不会经常显示出分散和低效的特征。人们应该寻求更适合时代、更符合自身需要的制度，而不是神话任何一种制度或者照抄/推销任何模板。
Great sharing. Wish to meet you two in China one day.
Too many persons involved in managing an activity can ruin it, as in without a conductor, every player had an idea for how the music should go so too many cooks spoil the broth. This expression alludes to each of many cooks adding something to a soup, which finally tastes awful and it can be well applied to a country like Germany and end up in a jungle of different laws and regulations which nobody will understand.
In a way it's true. You hear only one voice telling you what to do. When there are one too many voices, you get confused. One party rule does not mean no democracy, and will always be seen as authoritarian because there is no other voice to say anything.
的确❤️，一党制也有助于政策的延续性，而不会因为政府换届而把上一任政府的政策全部推倒重来。

In addition to the ruling Chinese Communist Party, there are also eight democratic parties cooperating with the Communist Party, which is the multi-party cooperative system under the leadership of the Communist Party. The other eight parties are the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang, the Democratic League, the National Democratic Construction Association, the Association for Promoting Democracy, the Chinese Peasants and Workers Democratic Party, the Zhi Gong Party, the Jiusan Society, and the Taiwan Democratic Self-government League.
the cpc utself is also adwmocratic party

Any one can explain what does it mean?
@@linuxloi2388a centralized government like CCP is like a father that guides the people and takes responsibilities of what the family (ppl in the country) should do and act, where as in the west with two party system each party is like a temporary contractor who never really takes the responsibility of the family for the long term. They just promise you nice things but when shit hit the fan, they blame each other, and they can always step down and let others to deal with it.

有人认为国家是人民的后盾，有人认为人民是国家的后盾。无论那种观点，但防疫成功的国家都有一个共同特点，政府和百姓的通力合作。政府提供正确的防疫体系和资源调度，人民配合政府的计划进行防疫。这虽然是一党集权的优越性，但不是说它没有缺点，万事都需要有一个制约，这种制约不一定要多党竞争，也可以采取党内制约，要把制约控制在一个合理的程度，既不会因为竞争而造成恶意的资源浪费，也要利用制约体系避免政府错误的政令。
说的太好了，没有任何的偏见和谎言，非常喜欢你的频道。
I would agree. "The attitude of the people doesn't take responsibility". The proof is in the numbers.
the problem is the government doesn't want to take responsibility too. They say people should be responsible for their own action. just kick the ball back.
@@linli9827 The government is not wrong to say that. Because their concept is that the government is elected and she should follow the will of the people.
Government does not need to do good for people but just do what the people think good.
不是一党制，是科学
有人要砍福齐的头。。科学呢？科学提供方法。。。党提供执行力。。。不管是一党还是多党，党就是提供执行力的。至少这件事上西方的多党制是完败的。美国出了川普反智，但是不能都推给川普。其他西方国家一样的没控制好。

马特举的撕创可贴的例子和中国民间的俗语“长痛不如短痛”是一个意思。尤其面对比人类文明早存在很多年的病毒，只有多数专业人士的共识相对来说是可信的。民众的科普也是社会文明升级的重要一环。不看广告看疗效。事实胜于雄辩。
In fact, it is not exactly a one-party system. To be precise, it is a system of multi-party cooperation and political consultation under the leadership of the Communist Party. It is a consultative democracy, not a competitive democracy like that in the West. The state system is the people's democratic dictatorship, external dictatorship and internal democracy, at least according to the official version.
其实不完全是一党制，准确来说是共产党领导的多党合作和政治协商制，走的是协商民主，不是西方那种竞争民主，国体是人民民主专政，对外专政，对内民主，至少官方说法是这样

什么时候两党制(美国)就是等于民主了？
他们自己标榜的
他们毕竟是西方人思维，能认识到这程度上已经是不错了
西方人眼中的世界都是二元的，他們也只能在二維的水平
这个要解释一下：美国的体制也算不上是民主，因为它总统选举的过程还是有选举人把关的，不是一人一票。当然，那边很多政客非要说自己的国家是“民主”那也没办法。政客的嘴，骗人的鬼
你们可以观察下哪些政客经常这么说，然后就会有数了
我们没有民主这个概念的时候他们自己先占有了，然后到处乱吹就成民主了国家了。

大事大非，检验体制。
其實我們的區別是根深蒂固的，是骨子裡的，不能互相理解這很正常，因為整個社會體制是不同的。我剛到國外的時候也不能理解，但是換位思考一下，也能理解一些。但是我覺得不管什麼國家，什麼政黨，什麼體制，什麼民族始終還是要靠自己保護自己。就像我所在的法國，開始都聽醫生或者政府說，生病的人才戴口罩，可是就一個普通感冒也是有傳染性的，而且有潛伏期，何況這麼四億氾濫的病毒。為什麼就不能自己把自己保護著，靠別人。。。。。。這個實在比較難以置信。
你們説得非常對。
这个和政治文化有关，不仅仅是一党制
在东方文化中，即使多党制也不会失控，像日本、韩国也是多党竞争，不过也控制的很好
控制不到中国这个水平，但是也相当不错了。中国毕竟14E人。韩国另说，日本其实控制的也不是太好，更多是通过人民的自觉在控制，比如长待口罩。但是看看病例数也还是相当高的，只是减缓经济下行的压力，没办法用中国模式。
台湾失控了。恶斗中
香港不就失控了！几十个党派为了政治利益鬼打鬼！执政的苦不堪言！
韩国太小，周围也没什么国，日本控制的不好

That’s the plan of this propaganda video. These guys are funded by the Chinese government to show a good side of China (very fishy and dishonourable) they have even been exposed in the papers since this video
@@musmaki4109 haha very funy. Who is told you give me the name. I heard from western media made story about them how they was "funded,, For example BBC are funded by british gervoment.
@@mantvydasmantvydelis6145 I think you should comment on random television channels on another video thread but I will indulge you this once... the UK government can’t afford to pay TV channels. The UK government does not have a propaganda department costing Billions, the UK government does not see saving face more important than saving lives. The UK government are around 90% honest whereas the CCP only has the other 10%.
Back to the BBC... they are funded by every household paying a TV licence. Yes they are probably highly influenced by the UK government but there are many thousands of channels UK citizens can access and decide what they think based on the evidence these channels offer. Whereas it’s illegal to see news in China that’s not made by the CCP. Hence they have an internet information wall (so they can control the narrative)
@@mantvydasmantvydelis6145 ps, the BBC does regularly undermines and criticises the UK government and no one is sitting in prison for it unlike CHINA. They imprisoned doctors for trying to sound the alarm about covid.

说的太对了，深有体会!
To be precise, it is a democratic centralism with one party leading the government and multi-party consultation
support. but sadly truth sometimes is hurtful.
在大范围严重疫情中，政府要有作为有担当，民众也要有自律肯配合，这样才能同舟共济，一起度过，所以政府和民众的互信很重要。
在中国一党制政治体制中，中共在国内不需要打击在野党以获取或巩固自己统治地位，在公民教育中，一直强调的是民众要信任政府、执政党。而在多党竞争选举体制中，公民教育则是强调民众要质疑政府滥用权力，人民要自己保护自己，在野党也是深刻挑战执政党，这种政体和教育下，民众如何原因配合政府？ 他们最多也是配合自己支持的政党和领导人而已。
Thank you!👍👍👍
