To be fair, there are birds in china. Zhejiang province seems to have more sparrows than the UK. However, in general, the UK is absolutely replete with birds, and the dawn chorus in summer sounds like a jungle. Not so much in china, which is weird given that it's mainly subtropical. Most of the countryside that I saw in china is depleted. Many European countries are much more densely populated than china yet retain a fair amount of wildlife and 'unspoilt' nature. That was one of the many things that made me glad to return to the UK after my stay in china.

Don’t forget the Four Pests campaign-one of the first actions taken in the “Great Leap forward”. The thrust of this campaign was to eliminate four pests-rats, flies, mosquitoes, and sparrows. One was known as “Smash Sparrow”, a campaign in 1958 by Mao Zedong. Mao felt that sparrows ate too much grain and thus decreed that all sparrows be killed. Nobody knows how many sparrows were killed but estimates say that even if everyone killed at least one sparrow each, more than 600 million sparrows would have been killed, making it an extinct bird in China. Maybe that’s why you only saw one sparrow, not a flock of them?

They take basically no time to make, as you pour the mixture on the pan and it fries almost instantly.

By this time, however, it was too late. With no sparrows to eat them, locust populations ballooned, swarming the country and compounding the ecological problems already caused by the Great Leap Forward, including widespread deforestation and misuse of poisons and pesticides.[9] Ecological imbalance is credited with exacerbating the Great Chinese Famine, in which 15-45 million people died of starvation.[10][11] The Chinese government eventually resorted to importing 250,000 sparrows from the Soviet Union to replenish their population.[12]

Nice episode guys I always wanted to go to Harbin; unfortunately, due to my poor to none Chinese language proficiency I could never travel outside of Guangzhou every time I visited China; well I only went to Hunan once because a friend booked the train tickets for me to visit her. Have a great day everyone and be safe.

I still remember when I was a student in china i went to a club and was drinking with my friends and suddenly a woman came to interact with me and asked me that if she can join us, offcourse we said yes and then we were quite drunk and went to washroom to do some obvious things and I don't know from where her husband came and he pulled out a knife on me😭😭 thank god I was not alone and I had a Chinese friend who solved the problem 😂

The situation you depict reminds me soviet union before collapse. There was time called "perestroyka", which means "rebuilding" or "refreshing"- an attemt to obtain a western face without of real shifts from communist pheodalism. Almost everyone was sure that the soviet course will last forever. I remember that people have speculated about how su will overcome US in 2000. But the things was spurred dramatically so fast than a whole generation was lost in desperate. I live in Ukraine, and here it took more than 20 years from 1991, before people start asking themselves who they are and what they need...

There was a sizable Russian community since the late 19th century, that grew a lot after the October Revolution. During the 20's and 30's this region was controlled by warlords and ultimately by the Japanese, under the puppet State of Manchukuo, up until 1945. The Japanese supported this community of Russians because they were anticommunist, after the fall of the Japanese, the Soviet occupation of Manchuria and Mao Zedong's victory these Russians either emigrated again or faced deportation and criminal persecution in the USSR.
