"Stayed in one city" ??????? Actually I have stayed in 9 cities and visited many more. I would love to tell you how "elegant" my country is but I do not have time to sit here for days writing and writing and writing about it. I can tell you that my home city is once again the "worlds most livable city" for the 4th time in ten years. In fact we have 4 cities in the top ten. I can tell you how everyday border protection intercepts boat loads of illegal immigrants desperate to enter my country for the chance to live a wonderful life. The opposite is true for china where people are desperate to leave, not enter. I can tell you about how westerners live a higher quality of life because we have superior education, health, personal hygiene, freedom of speech, the right to elect our representatives in parliament, clean drinking water, clean air to breath, and we do not kill baby girls. Furthermore, we actually contribute to society with innovation, we do not spend our lives stealing intellectual property from others and claiming it as our own. How could I not have respect for other cultures? I come from a city that is made up of people from 172 nations and I LOVE IT. Clearly so do many other people, that's why they go there to live and raise their families. I did not talk about "the value of foreign teachers". It is true that chinese students show respect towards their teachers, but that does not mean it is sincere. It is very easy to thrust a knife into someone back and smile at the same time. No doubt you will reply ranting about how china is a "developing nation" as a miserable excuse for your corrupt society, well I say to you that you have been "developing" for 4000 years and if you cannot get it right in 4000 years then you never will. We got it right in just 230 years :-) I would suggest that the endless accusations about westerners "hating" china merely stems from your own insecurity and knowledge that china is not as perfect as the brainwashing you receive. Yet again I will ask the question, who said anything about hating china? How could I possibly hate a whole nation? I hate luoding, that is true, yet there are a couple of cities that I stayed in which I loved. Finally you may wish to get out your dictionary and look up the word "generalisation".
