You do realise that for many foreigners, China and its people are not all that special, don't you?

Hell, we even get excited every time we are about to leave China, whenever our work schedule permits us to. Whether that be for business or pleasure.

As for the usual 'if you don't like it, then leave...' Just remember that expatriate managers are given a hardship allowance in China for a very good reason. Some of us didn't actually want to get posted here. It just shows that actually, your country is not all that great and wonderful after all. I wonder why so many wealthier Chinese are so keen to run away and get a foreign passport!

Once your economy inevitably tanks, many of those foreign companies that have brought wealth to your country in recent times, may dump China rather quickly with very little thought. Vietnam is licking its lips right now as we speak.

All that you have to offer to many of us is a nice sized market to sell our goods and services to, mainly because the Chinese companies are still yet to catch up; unlike Korea where domestic companies can offer goods to consumers that are equal if not better in quality to that of foreign competitors.

It's also reassuring to know that Chinese people still don't seem too capable of teaching English, whereas other countries can be quite self-sufficient in that regard.

You accuse us (foreigners) of 'complaining.' I accuse you all (the rural Chinese) of being far too willing to eat shit and being too lazy to make an effort to improve things.
