Similarly, if you are a foreigner in any country, and dont know the local language, its very inconvienient to you. If you are in Australia, for example, and dont speak English, it will be very inconvienient to you. No difference at all. But China already is more foreigner friendly than most countries.

They have transportation sorted. Mass transit system is probably the best in the world right now. Certainly the most extensive and the cheapest. Very convenient.

[@8964TS]

Tokyo and Osaka have more extensive mass transit systems by a long way. There are still vast areas of Shanghai with little or no subway coverage, even pretty close to downtown. My nearest station is a 25 minute walk away and I’m really not that far from downtown.

[@8964TS]

Which is not to say that public transport here isn’t otherwise excellent, but it’s still got plenty of room to grow, not only in terms of lines but also in-service amenities. Tokyo and Osaka’s metros are like cities within cities with whole underground malls and services available. You might get a Family Mart in a Shanghai station if you’re lucky.

Hi Ollie, Great to see you making such positive video reports on China. Having lived in China for almost 5 years, I can wholly confer that your reporting on convenience in China is 100% correct. Myself and my wonderful Chinese wife have traveled thousands of miles on the fast train, the orange slower trains, and the little village green trains. Folk in Europe will never understand, or never want to believe just how convenient it is to live in China. Example. While in an temporary 1 day hotel room, passing a day waiting for a flight, my wife ordered a bowl of fresh fruit. Paid for on Weechat, then blow me down, less than 30 minutes later there is a knock on the door, and of fantastic bowl of fruit delivered. I think it was about 7 kuai. Amazing doesn't even come close. Best wishes to your dad, keep up the great reporting. Graham.

[@Hazza_Harding]

As a foreigner, I would say that in some regards, China is EXTREMELY convenient, but in other ways, it is so not - China is improving systems and making it easier for foreigners to live, but there is still a ways to go. For everyday life, China is truly convenient, but every couple of years when it comes time to reapply for your visa, and also when it comes to banking, trying to figure everything out, and dealing with all of the procedures can feel very inconvenient. Luckily, that only happens every now and then. Apart from that, life is very easy overall.

[@rogerfaint499]

Foreigners face that kind of problems you mentioned but the locals do not experience them. Therefore, it is still the most convenient country to live in the world (besides places like Singapore and Taiwan because these countries have the convenience of almost everything within their fingertips).

[@j.z.3129]

外国人到中国产生的这些问题的主要原因是因为中国不是一个移民国家，原住民高达99.9%。而且中国将来也不会成为一个移民国家的，因为人口太多。所以在中国很多事情不会考虑到“外国移民”的选项，只是把外国人在生活便利度提高就可以。而不会是全面的，所以如果要在中国体验生活，不管是现在，还是将来，懂中文，和中国办证件的流程，是很必要的。

[@alexgang408]

Meanwhile they must have served another 20 people before I got out of there….. red faced! 😊 Outside of work I tried to speak Mandarin in the shops and restaurants ( it’s was pretty poor! ) mainly to practice.

Oli, 好喜欢你这类视频，你的讲解非常好。很有自己独特的见解，好难想象你这么年轻就有如此强的思维方式！

[@inkbold8511]

U would be better if you can do street food walk through and these kind of talks together! I love seeing night market sceneries while listening to you talking.

as an Englishman and not a Chinese speaker when i go and see my in laws in Guangzhou i love to use the buses when not in a hurry so i can see how much the city has changed since the last time i was there. If in a hurry we use the metro lines or didi both the buses and metro have English on their signs but some time time tables are only in Chinese. that is one advantage of the bigger cities. One disadvantage of being English and living in the uk i have not found a way of getting wechat pay so sending my nephews and niece red letters is a pain

You mentioned the train journey and cost, London to Birmingham being 190km and that costs approximately £30. Shenzhen to Guangzhou being not "slightly less" but a quarter less at 140km, and that costs around £6. So adding the quarter more (to make it even to the London to Birmingham distance), that would have made it £8. So, train journeys in China are around a quarter of the price the ripoff UK.

This is the price of high-speed railway. If it is a normal speed train, it will be cheaper.

China is the most technologically advanced country of the world. heartiest love for China and Chinese people.

One big benefit for their transport is being government/public funded. As you mentioned they can subsidise less profitable routes with more profitable ones and they only need to generate enough profit for maintenance etc so can afford to be cheaper. In the Uk the profit is the bottom line for private companies so unprofitable routes get axed and ticket prices get hiked up.

[@johngood4419]

No true, no gov or public funded for that at all. as a Chinese I should tell you.

[@donaldlineker6140]

@@johngood4419 Of course it was partially funded by the state because rail systems in China are state-owned. Otherwise ticket would not be relatively cheap compared to the West.

我觉得在中国大城市基建都已经很成熟，生活很方便，怎么看都已经比其它国家的城市更智能。你可以去一些小城市或者城镇看看他们实际的变化，交通、人文、生活水平等等。

移动支付的话题老生常谈了。正确的做法是，平常出行都是行李里准备了一些现金以备用。当然一般情况下是用不着的。

[@陈宗源-y6v]

现在很多便利店可以扫脸支付了，即使手机没带也能买东西，只要你绑定支付软件的卡里有钱就行。我就有几次因为下楼忘记带手机，或者手机没电的情况下去便利店通过扫脸购买物品。并且以后多个领域普及扫脸支付，即便出行搭交通工具也可以不用带手机。

Very good. 💪💪💪
