Our nation is so week. We’re selfish, dirty, no discipline. People destroy the beautiful scenery. Only one party, no democracy, sometimes I wonder does democracy works in our country. But I want to see democracy and human right will appear in our country in my life time. I’ve sent some website to my Chinese friend, he couldn’t receive them. I’m very disappointed.
Otherwise, we have beautiful art, such as china, traditional handicraft, I particularly like Chinese poems.
We are filial piety. We take care about our parents when they are elderly. We are hard working.

My deepest sympathy to all families who's members, sons and daughters were killed or injured by the earthquake yesterday. I watched the news and cant help my tears falling by the sadness i felt for them and all of china and the whole world. Truly this is again a very sad happening. i hope they will be able to rescue everyone buried under those bricks of buildings.

My thoughts and prayers are with you always, my friends. God bless all of us.

aljensen,很高兴看到你写中国字,看起来很亲切。u type chinese character,it's very interesting.but i also see some people criticizing chinese in this forum…"chinese are conservetive"..."chinese is very boring,not interesting, not willing to try new things"...."when u say something,chinese girl always agree with u and never disagree"..... well, why chinese girls always agree with others?it's not only because they don't want to say something true to hurt others,but also a kind of habbit which be trained when they are young that donnot criticize people in the presence of them. to some westerners, they thought this is unbelieveable for one person can't express his own will, well, i do hate not to express oneself even be teased. i know some girls they are very individualised,and when u ask them to do something out of their will or offending them,they will give a very direct no or make u give up your mind. For further want to know chinese or asia people, you’ll have to get to china and get afew friends for a few years ,then u will know how them is and what the country is.

My image of the chinese people is that they are an excellent workers, they follow and respect a lot their traditions and religion that practice, they like order in every aspect of their life and maybe a little repressed.

In Mexico, China is considered like a monster in business (I mean like a powerful economy).

Every time I see the poor farmer on TV,  there is no emotion on their face. It seems they don’t know what is happiness such a simple thing. My hot tears well up in my eyes. How can I do except for praying. I’ve just received a poor little boy’s letter from 雲南 who is sponsored by me. I sponsor him to go to school. I’m so worried about the future of our poor little children in China.

Poison – “Something to believe in” shows my feeling
I drive by the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street
Like bodies in an open grave
Underneath the broken old neon sign
That used to read Jesus saves
A mile away live the rich folks
And I see how they are living it up
While the poor they eat from hand to mouth
The rich is drinking from a golden cup
MY LORD, WHERE ARE YOU?

I'm also feel sorry about the victims of the earthquake. But unfortunately I don't know much about China. It seems to be so a far and a closed community. For example the chinese government usually provides news about everithing a few days after the real event. It's hard, because we all hoped that China will get closer to the whole world after the Olimpic games, but China did things to Tibet that most of the people didn't like.

I'm a bit young to understand these, but I hope one day chinese people will also be able to make a decision between more that one party and that elections will also be held there…
