I'm First to Travel to CHINA After the Pandemic

I have been to China more than 10 times. However I have not visited since COVID and I am so curious as to what the situation here is like. I was shocked with how everything is here.
The waitlist for Visas to china is more than 2 months so I decided to risk it and enter the country with a transit visa

My classmate's father once participated in an event in 1989, and he kept telling us children for many years that he was misled by foreign separatist forces at that time and thought he didn't understand the true way of national governance at that time and did almost harm to the country. This is the fact.

[@Zoe-ss6vr]

yes, my father was a graduate student in Beijing in 1989. They gave money to student leaders and ensure these leaders will be safe after the event. Then they will find more students to join the event. I also saw a Documentary probably by BBC, interviewing one of the leaders, I remembered they ask her feeling about some students who died in the event, and she said "Sacrifice is necessary" Then they ask her if she would like to sacrifice, she said, "no, students need leaders." These students and their families were just been using for a worthless political event.

[@blardymunggas6884]

@@Zoe-ss6vr of all news you watch BBC and believed it? I feel sad for your intelligence. You do know that the U S has been funding groups of people in many countries to act as separatist and caused chaos whenever those countries has a leaders that do not sell out their countries to the U S A. You do know that right? Cuba, venezuela, hungary, turkiye, iran, iraq, Russia, china, myanmar, thailand, malaysia, etc etc etc…… all experienced these U S chaotic intervention. All in disguise as protecting “human rights” and “ democracy”.. Glad China’s leader stood firm to protect their sovereignty. Not many countries could withstand the heat.

My mom experienced the same thing. It’s a fucking lie, western media disgusts me

[@wyz9815]

I really appreciated that the volger showing China in much more unbiased and objective way! 👍 Just one thing, the funny logic is that some westerners say they think China is very organized, clean, morden, people are happy and life is good , and is one of their favourite countries, but at the same time they don't like Chinese governemnt 🤔. But what they like about China, things they mentioned above are actually the results of good governance. Be in China and see everything with their own eyes, but still can't break away with propaganda against China from the Western media. So I can't help wondering how stubborn human minds can be? In order to get more truthful information about somebody, something, someplace, some country in a world filled with all kinds of fake information with hidden agends, especially from dominant media powers, it is wise for people to collect data themself (if they can) , seeing and hearing things real happening on the ground with your eyes and ears, but these won't be enough, thinking and analyzing with logic is also very important or biased mind will twist everything you see, just like some BBC journalists went to China and still ill interpret everything with biased agends or ill-willed motivation. Maybe open mindness does not just mean accepting everything in a foreign country and not to be judgemental with habits and standard in home country, it is also means you are open to different mindset and ideologies, the buliding blocks of a culture and social system, that is also make things work well as well as making people happy.

I also remember the Chinese equivalent, to the "situation room", being very prominent. It was amazing to see & a shame that it is now filled with water & derelict. Such an amazing place. I was there in 88, so a long time ago now. Some people still wore their Mao suits & carried their red, Mao books. Nobody had seen foreigners, so that was a huge thing too...especially, with my blonde hair. Amazing hospitality & an amazing time to see this. I have been lucky to work with some Chinese women & they spoilt me a lot. Also, there were no cars, just bikes. How times have changed!

China doesn't run anti-US propaganda like the mainstream media in the US spreading propaganda against China 24/7. While the US is focusing how to suppress China since it's unwilling to subjugate to its dominance, China is focusing more on how to continue to make itself better.
