How about India? Indians said they are the voice and leader of global south. What is your opinion of Indians leading the world also and not just global south. They used to say they are already a global super power and China is still a developing country?
@@tang-oc7if Very true! One only has to look at the history behind what happened to the indigenous natives in the lands that were conquered and colonized by the Anglo-Europeans.
"Blogger, I've been silently following you for a long time. Most of the time, I watch your videos to learn English. As a Chinese, I'm grateful to you for promoting Chinese culture to the world. You showcase the beautiful side of China and share Confucianism with foreign friends. You're really amazing. Just like the saying of Confucius: 有朋自远方来不亦悦乎（It is such a delight to have friends coming from afar)🎉🎉
As a westerner who has just recently taken a trip to China I have to say the place blew me away. Too many people buy the nonsense propaganda here in the West. What did I take away from my trip? The friendliness of the Chinese people, the cleanliness of their cities and streets, the safety of their streets.....I could walk around with my backpack unzipped and without fear of getting pick pocketed or having my phone snatched out of my hand! There was no graffiti, no litter and good reliable public transport. To anyone from the west reading this, don't listen to the press.....go take a trip and see for yourself. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to walk city streets night or day and feel safe? Then go to China! I will definitely return, and to any Chinese people reading this.... thank you for your hospitality.
Gareth, when you visited China. Which cities or places did you visit? Also, since you are an expert on promoting China. I would like to ask you one last question. What is life like outside the corridors of tourist areas?Thanks & take care.
@@deepakbhana8937Hi, i am born and risen in a nonpetfect country, China, and having been living in Western for 15yrs. Being bias is much easier, isn’t it?! If the Same question you asked about that to ask for any other countries on world beside China , What will be the answer(s) ? There seems No a single country perfect isn’t it? If you know one, point it out and give the data please, as a Chinese, we would like to know and learn about how to improve, instead of piss off the others.
@@yanyang6050 So in China, outside the tourist corridors, the infrastructure does not resemble what you see in glossy post card images of China. If this is not true, then I apologize to yourself & Garth for insinuating that much of China is a land of rural agriculture outposts. If my assertion that Chinese rural outposts (rice paddie fields) outside tourist corridors is true, that resemble much of the American heartland then you need to have your head examined for delusional thinking. I personally have lived amongst Chinese expatriates in the west. I find they are well groomed, do not act anti-establishment or have a vengence with the police. In other words Chinese people are law abiding. But that is not true of the red light district that are located close to same neighbourhood which I live near. There you will find Chinese expatriates working as sex trade workers just like European bitches. Most Chinese are hard working & are very dilegent in schools where they attend. But so to are American caucasian students who are the sons & daughters of parents who may not have had the same opportunities & freedome to pursue careers as afforded to Chinese immigrants. The Chinese have settled in the west far earlier than most newcomers to the west. But it is a historical fact that they did not contribute to the development of the country compared to immigrants from the British Isles or Italy for example. I'm not bias in no way. I don't have statistic or data to show how backwards some people are, but if I do there is a group of concerned citizens who haven't been given generous allowances & have to struggle to settle in the west will fight for retribution. PM Rishi Sunak is an example to China & the rest of the global south that rather than living in Chinatownes, one can assimilate & belief in there culture & not act as an aetheist.
@@yanyang6050 If my assertion that life outside the economic & tourist corridors resembled rural agriculture outposts which you find in America then I sincerely apologize. If in fact I am correct , then I think you need to have your head examined for delusional think & for writing like you are drunk on rice wine.
Really? South Tibet was gobbled up by India under the CCP's watch. Tawang, South Tibet was invaded and annexed by India in February 1951. South Tibet became India's Arunachal Pradesh in 1987. Where is the hunting rifle you are talking about?
@@PomegranateChocolate no worry, India is a typical short-sighted south country and doesn't deserve to be called China's rival yet . Disputes can be shelved for now, economic development and making people live better is always the key.
100% Professor Sacks himself, a philosopher with the wisdom of Confucianism, advocates harmony and peaceful coexistence rather than putting someone on the menu.
@@leeway777 I wonder why Jason only showed a one second clip of the two of them together but no actual interview footage like he did to others in this video.
China has always promoted peace and love because people are empathetic and care about families. They never colonise. The Chinese way is another form of peaceful democracy.
Tnx Jason for sharing many aspects of d Chinese civilization to d world...and wow !!! My idol Prof. Jeffrey Sachs , a truly great man n peace maker of modern times. U're so fortunate to have met him there. 😃😃👍👍👍
You met JEFFREY SACHS a great economist people in the west should listen to him his predictions on the global economy and global affairs have been very good. Many parts of Abrahamic religions (Islam, real Christianity and Judaism not Zionism) have similarities with confuses teachings. This is why cultures interlap today, Malaysia is an example current political issue. South Asians, East and Southeastern (somewhat West Asian/Middle eastern) in a city like Sydney actually end up becoming friends when studying in school at a young age as for my own personal experience born and raised in Sydney, Australia in the 80s and 90s.
Jason, as always, you are more than a journalist, fun, journalistic, and academic. Wow, I saw Jeffrey Sachs, good to see you were together. Expect more from you. 👍
@@JenHope118NADA ... ?? Such institutions require a high degree of civilisation. Primitive people have no such concepts. Their people like Tonya Harding & Thomas Matthew Crook unlikely to have such concepts ... 😅
What is so amazing and fascinating is the China is holding all these international forums to discuss and exchange ideas as well as learn from one another how to create a better government for the people to improve on things to do with governance. However, on the other side of the planet, we have the West that is constantly engaged in conflicts and antagonisms - which is an utter disappointment.
