I had a similar experience in Shanghai. I left my wallet in the cab. When I tried to call for help, I saw the cab came back searching for me and returned my wallete. I am an American; I got robbed twice in NYC, once in LA. What a world super power.
I have a similar experience while traveling to Shenzhen last month, from LA. I were in a Starbucks in a Shenzhen mall, a Chinese lady working on her Mac book laptop, and her purse nearby, stood up and walked out the Starbucks out to the mall, for a whole 10 to 15 minutes, with her Mac book and purse totally unattended. That's unthinkable in LA, or for that matter, unthinkable in USA or Europe.... Actually, I were thinking I would watch out for her, until she came back. So no one would try to steal her Mac laptop and purse. While there had been many people walked by, no one seems to care about the expensive laptop and purse left there unattended... Her laptop and purse were perfectly safe, no one ever touch it out attempted to touch it.... Unbelievable..... So 15 minutes passed by and that lady came back, with a shopping bag on her hand.... Apparently she went to shopping in the mall while her Mac book and purse were left unattended....oh boy, if the same thing happened in LA or most everywhere in the world, 90% chance her Mac book and purse will be stolen. I can attested it's indeed very safe in China, during my 3 weeks visit there in China, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Shanghai...I found it's indeed very safe, people were very well behaved and helpful, in contrary to many articles appeared in USA newspaper, magazines, etc. I definitely will go back to China again next year for my vacation, a place don't have to worry about gun violence, pickpockets, robbery , murder, mass shotting, Republicans fighting against Democrats..... All these B.S....
Welcome to come and play in China again. We are used to reserving seats with our phones, backpacks, laptops, and so on, and no one would think of taking (stealing) your belongings. People are more likely to be annoyed if you're just occupying a space without using it, rather than considering stealing your items.
I left my wallet on the table in a McDonald in Beijing, went back after 15 minutes, expecting it gone, but when I got there, the janitor lady was standing right next to my table watching it for me. She also blamed me for being careless, you know, just like every Chinese aunt would do. Even though China is extremely safe, if you are visiting, always use common sense and don't assume no crime will happen. Stay safe everyone.
I was in Guangzhou for a short period on a business trip. I went into a cafe for a cup of coffee, The cafe was full of non-Chinese. I placed my laptop together with my watch before going into the toilet to wash my hands. When I came back my laptop and watch were missing. I went up to the cashier to report my missing items. The cashier told me not to worry as the cafe has a camera to record all activity in the cafe. He reported the matter to the local police. The next thing the black guy culprit was arrested near the hotel where he was staying.
it is like playing game that you can save and load. the camera save all you asset digitally, and police will ensure you can "load" your asset physically.
i lived in china for a month back in 2016. i can tell you without any doubt that china is one of the safest countries in the world, i used to go out past midnight with my friend as foreigners almost every day and just wonder in the streets of shenzhen for hours and we never had problems, the police are respectful the army as well and everyone is so nice. china still to this day the best country i've ever visited and i can't wait to return to it.
Wondering in the streets past midnight(2:00~) may result in checking your ID or passport by patrol police. it is very hard to see army in China, I think maybe they are police, traffic police or SWAT, maybe armed police(key high-speed rail stations or railway stations during NPC sessions)
@@frankfleming1103 back then i was staying at a hostel around Yanhanshan Suburb Park in shenzhen, we used to see group of soldiers in formation walking(training) at around 4 AM or so, that scene always fascinated me.all in all people there are very nice and they always go the extra mile to make sure that you feel comfortable.
@@zackben It is very strange that soldiers trainning outside, I saw it on the map there is an university around this park, maybe they are college freshmen in military training(Sep.-Otc.)
I lost my bag in a restaurant in Beijing, after 2 hours I run back and it was kept by the owner.. thanked her by offering her some money but she refused… I don’t think it’s because of the surveillance, but the people are just so honest
Many people believe that the purpose of having so many CCTV cameras in China is to monitor your personal privacy, but in fact, no one is interested in your privacy in China unless someone secretly likes you.
If it really happened, there are always surveillance cameras in China to track the thief. However western media has issues with the numerous camera in China. I guess only the thieves or ill-intentioned individuals are concerned with the cameras in China.
It is said that there are many cameras installed in London, and it is hard for me to understand why the cameras are not working. To protect the privacy of the robbers?
When I visited China back to 2019, I walked into a small hotel /cat cafe once. The owner wasn't there but left the door was opened and laptop on the table, the electric scooter was unlocked. She left a sticky note said she was visiting her friends' tea house a few blocks away. 🤣🤣
@@bo5231 Nah, that kind of service can only be implemented in a society full of law abiding citizen like Japan. There are some social experiments of 'pay what you take' in some other not so safe countries, and the products got all taken almost immediately.
I lost a water cup at the express station in China, and I forgot to take it away. When I went again the next day, the staff at the express station put it in the window for me. I am very grateful to him and bought him two bottles of drinks. I love China.❤
Just last May, a colleague of mine left her phone in Guangzhou airport before going to Hefei. She realized that she left her phone after hours inside the plane. Already lost hope, she accepted the fact that her files were already long gone. Lo and behold, she got it on our way back to Guangzhou after 5 days in Hefei completely intact. China is the safest countries I’ve been to.
To the Chinese, this means that the seat is occupied. As for what was used to occupy it, the Chinese actually don’t care much. It can be a glass of water, a pack of tissues, an iPhone, a LV bag or even a car key.
A French newspaper once reported that a Frenchman once traveled to South Korea and then his things were stolen, and it turned out that the person who stole his things was caught by the police and found out that he was also a Frenchman.
It happened the same in China a few years ago. An Aussie lost his bag while taking the metro in Guangzhou city. He made a report at the metro station and the station staff went through all the CCTV clips and found his bag. Surprisingly the one who stole his bag is a Brit.
I tell u a real story I experienced 10 years ago. I was in GZ for Canton fair. I was coming out of the subway when 2 Aussie guys were frantically asking if anyone could speak English. I offered to help. They have left their package in the cab, which contained about USD 30K. They are also here for the fair. They were looking for help but even the police in the police stand don't speak English. I offered to help and tried to explain to the police what happened and while I was doing it, the cabbie drove back and saw the Aussie passengers and handed the package back to them, everything was intact and drove off without expecting anything in return. To say the Aussie businessmen were shocked and relieved is an understatement. They don't even really get a chance to speak to the cabbie. He just saw them, returned the package and drove off like its just a routine job.
About 30 years ago, even in Guangzhou station, there would be a lot of thieves and robberies (they were all Chinese, not foreigners) but now, almost all Chinese cities have very few such things. People have become richer, and better education has helped. Of course, CCTV camera also helps a lot. But Western countries have always been richer than China and still have a lot of thefts and robberies (I don't think all these things are done by poor people and homeless ).
In fact, I really do not wish to see similar experiments. In China, there is a saying that "the human heart cannot be tested". In fact, there are greedy people everywhere, but the culture and education in China and some Asian countries have resulted in a relatively small percentage of greedy people.
Not only is it okay to put a laptop in a shopping mall, but even if you put one million RMB on the table, no one would dare to take it. Committing a crime in a public place in a Chinese city is equivalent to robbery. Few thieves are willing to take such a risk, except for those with mental problems. From the video footage, it can be seen that almost no one stopped and hesitated, which is enough to see that no one is interested in it, regardless of whether it is valuable or not. The quality of the Chinese people is also improving with the change of population, and the quality of education and humanities is also improving.
you are wrong! Are the quality, education, and culture of Chinese people improving? ! This is the case with China's basic education for more than 5,000 years. In the late Qing Dynasty, when the country became weak, it almost disappeared for 200 years. Now it is just being rediscovered! 😎,
It's not the law.It's the governance. It's not the cameras. It's the officers sitting infront the screens. In UK, there are even more cameras. But the police simply do nothing.
One thing foreigners can't wrap their heads around is the fact that there's no "bad" neighborhoods or "safe" neighborhoods in China. All neighborhoods whether rich or poor, central or suburb are all euqually crazy safe
It's still dangerous in the middle of nowhere. Refer to the vanishing couple. One of the killers is still alive because he was a minor at the time of the crime
As a Chinese citizen I'd like to say that even 15 yrs ago, China wasn't like this at all. I remember I lost 6 bikes during my 6 years in high school🤣 Thanks to the COMMUNIST government's continuous effort in eliminating poverty and developing economy, now China is undoubtedly the safest country with the lowest crime rate second to none in the world (second to Singapore maybe? But that's just a tiny city unlike a real country)
Iceland is always seen as the most safest country on the planet. but yeah not hard if there are living 400K people there. everybody knows each other lol. but yeah China is one of the safest countries for sure.
In the US, retail thefts will takeaway all the MacBooks from Apple Store for "free". 1:02 If that's not enough, malls are closing down because of Zero purchase but thefts. Retail stores on street are closed down too.
The widespread access to education and the increase in national income in China have made all this possible. It's hard to imagine that just 12 years ago in Shanghai, my iPhone was stolen while I was listening to music with wired earphones. I reported it to the police, but I never got my phone back. However, today, such incidents have almost disappeared in China. Society is constantly progressing, with an efficient and fair government and kind, educated citizens working together to create this harmonious society. I am proud of my country.
That why I like the communist more recently after I knew what they have achieved in this 20-30 years, they care about community, not a few rich individuals.
That is real, I am a Hong Kong people and living in Shenzhen now. I often leave my smartphone on my bike for about 15-30mins and it always still here, no people touch it.
I’m a Chinese American and last Nov I went back to Shanghai for the first time after 5 years not being able to go with all the shutdowns in pandemic. My childhood best friend drove me to the area near the bunds to show me the new version of it that I’m no longer familiar with. She found a street parking spot and when we walked away from the car I saw she left her laptop in the back seat, easily visible from outside. As a person living in the notorious San Francisco Bay Area I found this unacceptably disturbing and unsafe and asked her to go pick up the laptop asap. She looked at me as if I was from a different universe and was completely puzzled: what are you talking about. Well, after all it was probably true that I was indeed from a different universe to some extent 😢
Its all the woke far left policies are destroying the west, specially west large cities like london, la, san fransico ,Wherever they implement policies, the city becomes unsafe, dirty, and more expensive. Over the last 10 years, woke left have made one city after another unlivable. You can see for yourself: they claim they are working for the environment, but their cities are the dirtiest (with trash and graffiti everywhere). They claim they are working for humanity, but you will see so many homeless people living in inhumane conditions. Their program to defund the police, did they provide alternative solutions? Their soft-on-crime approach is only helping one group, i.e., criminals. Not sure what their agenda is; it seems like they want only the ultra-rich with private security and the ultra-poor to live in these cities. Do not punish the middle class who are working sincerely and bearing the brunt of all the absurd policies.
I was in Paris some years ago. I left a bag with my movie camera and a camera under the table while eating breakfast. After the meal, I found my bag missing. How the thief did it amazed me. It was taken right under my nose. I reported to the police but no action was taken. Fortunately I claimed from my insurance back in Canada and it was reimbursed. It turned out well.
I once left 20,000 usd in a bag on the metro in Shanghai. Not a single person touched it until one lady called security to come get it. It was returned to me without a single dollar missing.
Here, everyone is very clear about how many cameras there are in the shopping center. Criminals know that once they go to retrieve those things, they will be arrested within a few hours. There is no possibility of being spared. Because there is no possibility of exemption, the mentality of taking chances is eliminated. Another point. In cities, normal employment is very easy. There is no need to send oneself to prison for such financial reasons. After spending nearly twenty years in this environment. People will develop a habit of not touching other people's belongings. This environment is attributed to moral education and also has the effect of social governance.
It's not the law.It's the governance. It's not the cameras. It's the officers sitting infront the screen. In UK, they're even more cameras. But the police simply do nothing.
You clearly don't know there are more CCTV cameras per square inch in central London than the majority of the world. And I dare you leave your phone on your coffee table WHILE YOU ARE SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO IT in Oxford or Regent St London! London thieves don't care how many CCTV cameras are there, and they know perfectly how to dodge getting caught - just wear masks, big dark sun glasses and a baseball cap! Did you think the Chinese are too stupid to know how to disguise themselves 😂😂😂??
One thing from the video is that all those people walking by did not even look at or approach the laptop. This meant to me that no one had any thought of taking it.
it is usual to see a lot ladies left their Hermes/LV/Prada bag on the cafe seats to cafe's counter or washroom, and the seats are at the open area outside the cafe next to a very busy street. It is Not Zero crime in China, but the people shows how safe it is.
Once, I had a stopover in Shanghai and my son lost his Ipad. We went back to the place that we thought we lost it and a lady janitor told us that it was sent to lost and found which was outside the immigration and we had only a few minutes before boarding and could retrieve it. Two weeks later on return flight and stop over in the same airport, we went to the lost and found. The person asked for any identifyable marks and we gave one to them. They retrieved it from a locked area and we got back out ipad. This totally changed my perception of China. That was about 10 years ago!
There are still some bad people in China who would steal if given the chance. But they don't because there are cameras everywhere, and they would be identified in no time. Stealing under such surveillance in China would be incredibly stupid.
There are also a lot of cameras if not more in London, Mumbai and other non Chinese cities. The difference is that in those cities, people know the police won't do a thing to help ordinary citizens get their things back and suchlike. The cameras are there for the police to monitor protests and to catch specific people.
most of the Chinese sneaking into USA are probably criminals. Once already caught. it is a tiny amount compared to the population of China. 30k sneaking into USA is just 0.002% of China's population. USA propaganda making it a big deal.
About 5 years ago, my co-woker (a French) left his MAC laptop in a bar in Shanghai, he took it back the next day evening. He didn't expect it at all, but he got it. It's Shanghai, it's China.
You were lucky, i personally wouldn't try it, not just in China, but in any country.......no matter how safe it is ( there's always some one that needs money)🤣
uk i got my laptop stolen in less than 3 minute while i go in paid for petrol.. when ask for cctv footage, they refuse to give have to call police who took 2 weeks to get footage. edit ..even worse is caught the offender but police said not enough evidence when it show he ran to the car open the door and left....
As a Chinese, I witnessed my dad losing our bike while he chased the thief 20 years ago. But since I was a high schooler (about 10 years ago) I didn’t remember hearing about any theft stories from friends and family. I believe 1) more people are richer in China nowadays + surveillance cameras have made stealing quite risky and unprofitable and 2) all the thieves and robbers from 20 years ago in China now have turned into internet scammers 😂
It is best not to make this kind of attempt. Chinese society is relatively safe, but there are still thieves. The best security is to raise your awareness of safety.
In US, even with camera and police, even locked in the shop, things can be stolen, a rich country but poor ppl, doesn’t mean they are honest and have good behaviour.
Location Guangzhou: Friend told me this in a recent catch-up: his son in law left his e-bike unlock in a subway station. When he returned, it was gone. He went to the nearby police station, told them the location and time, and within minites, they found the CCTV footage of a guy riding his e-bite away. The system immediately identified the guy (he is not even a thief, or is he?), provided his ID number, address and phone number. The police called the guy up, told him plainly (without first getting his acknowledgement of theft) to return the e-bike immediately to the said police station. Next day, his son in law had his e-bike back. I just read a piece of news that the rate of criminal case clearance is 99.7% all over China last year. Take it wiht a grain of salt, it is still very impressive.
Things have not been always this way. I lived in Shanghai for 10 years. Attended middle school, high school and college there. While I do always remember China as a very safe place, theft were much more frequent back then. I studied at Fudan University from 2011 to 2015, and the school safety department used to hold big lectures to all new students about how to protect their properties. They used to present surveillance footage of thefts to show how insanely skillful those thieves are. They stole in classrooms and streets around the university. My ex girlfriend got her iPhone stolen while I walked her to a metro station. We were astonished and couldn’t even imagine how that can happen. The iPhone got turned off very quickly after the theft. I think it happened while we were hugging and she had a shallow pocket. I think things are better now because the surveillance has increased to a level that the thieves can be easily caught.
One time I forgot a package of very important documents on a chair at a train station. When I found it, I was already in another city. I asked my friend to go to the train station to help me find the bag, and he said the things were on the chair.
What seems most astonishing is that the Chinese naturally assume: of course, nobody would touch it. Meanwhile, foreigners, based on their experiences abroad, would naturally think: it would be odd if it weren't stolen. It's hard to tell whether China is far ahead or if foreign countries are far behind in this regard.
In China, if you put your mobile phone, wallet or computer on the table, it means that the place is occupied and others will not come to the table again.
Last time I went to ShenZhen China with my kids, i went out early and forgot to close the door of the hotel room.When i came back at night, it was still opened, but nothing had gone or lost. What a city!!!
doing the same in Moscow (Russia). leave laptop or a phone or a hat on the table to effectively take the table, then go do other stuff. Definitely wasn't like this before, but now it's safe i even forgot that it can be different. Also guaranteed can walk with eyes closed at night with no problems at all
Generally speaking China is way much more secured than many countries. People r kind n honest. But two things also matter. 1. Nobody carries cash any more. The most valued thing in a bag is a phone with pin number which thefts cannot crack. 2. CCTV is everywhere. 15 years before I was stolen twice on bus. This thing rarely happen now.
In ancient China people have already tried to build up villages where it's 夜不闭户,路不拾遗, which means nobody needs to close their doors at night, and nobody will pick up others' lost belongings. Our ancestors also said 仓禀实而知礼节, which means people learn manners when they are rich and well fed. I guess modern China is close to our ancient dreams.
Thanks for sharing the video. China has been changing a lot more than we think. Good to see a clean and honest community, at least at your testing location. I have not visited China for more than 8 years and I am really amazed how Chinese people change in a good way.
Haha, this is a test of human nature! In China, people will not steal high-value items, but low-value items may be stolen or treated as garbage (such as half a bottle of water, a pack of tissues or a ballpoint pen).
Hope you have fun in China! This kind of test actually doesn't have much effect in China, I don't even have to read it to know that the computer will not be lost, even if it disappears from your seat, please contact the mall staff immediately, they will quickly help you find your computer
There are a few elements of this: 1) people usually believe in karma. 2) wealth gap isnt as high as in america. 3) there are cameras everywhere so you know you will get caught if you break the law. 4) people believe in social equity or "face" and they wouldnt do anything dishonorable (especially in public. These and other factors make China a very safe place to live.
Yes , it brings shame to the family. Embarrass the wife , kids and relatives , risking job employment and business opportunities due to the criminal record. A culture that's different with Western culture.
Filipinos choose USA way of life. Freedom to violate other rights, put a wreck ship on someone else island than claim that island as their, not surprised
When I lived in China (2010-17), two thefts: my bike computer and one of my student's bags. One in a residential area and one in a shopping centre. Keeping in touch with Chinese friends, I learn that such incidents no longer happen (much). Amazing what happens when you eliminate the dog-eat-dog existence model!
Thirty years ago, you could do the same thing in the US, but there were a lot of thieves in China in the 1990s. Now, I am surprised at how quickly the situation has changed.
In my hometown in the countryside, they would put the washing machine in the yard in front of the house. There is no fence and the road is in front of it.
A more interesting phenomenon: you can go to the libraries of major cities and they are full. When it is lunch or dinner time, everyone leaves their seats to eat, and computers are left on the table "on a large scale". There is no theft. To a large extent, security is due to the prevalence of surveillance cameras. Yes, there is no privacy in public places, but it brings great security. There are gains and losses, and this is fair. The choice is yours.
Having lived in S.Korea and Japan, the fact that this is RU-vid video worthy is shocking.. we should stop comparing East Asian countries with the US.. East Asia is far far more advanced when it comes to security and safety..
I used to live in GuangZhou. My family lost 5+ bikes within a few years in the late 90s due to the influx of migrant workers (from poorer areas). I guess things are getting better now with more security cameras around.
Se dice que en china es un gobierno represivo, pero si es o no, ese es el resultado, hay confianza, pocos robos porque debe haber, muy poca violencia, se vió en el video de la camara oculta, la gente va y viene con libertad. Que hay represión?, pues quiero un gobierno así, donde en realidad haya seguridad y la gente se porte bien,
Chinese enjoy much more freedom than so called democracy countries like usa, europe.. our children and women do not have to be afraid when they go out in the middle of the night.
Si la democracia significa hacer la vista gorda ante el genocidio en Gaza y difundir rumores sobre el genocidio en Xinjiang, donde la vida es cada vez mejor, entonces creo que los chinos no necesitan esa democracia. Los chinos tienen muchas libertades que los estadounidenses e incluso algunos occidentales. Los países que no lo tienen, los ciudadanos no lo tienen, es suficiente para que el pueblo chino viva una vida feliz. Cada año, cientos de millones de chinos viajan al extranjero y el 99,999% de ellos regresan voluntariamente a China. también algunas personas en China que adoran ciegamente a los Estados Unidos y piensan que Estados Unidos es el cielo, sí, no te puedes imaginar cuán efectiva es la enorme cantidad de guerra de información en los Estados Unidos cada año. Sin embargo, una vez que estas personas realmente se vayan. a los Estados Unidos, todos piensan que han sido engañados por los Estados Unidos y que China es un lugar mejor.
It is normal for Singapore to have low crime. Singapore has a small population and a small area. The crime rate means there is no place to escape. China is different. It has a large population and a large land. It is incredible that China can achieve such an achievement. Singapore is nothing special. It is too small and easy to control.
you must says that the majority populations of Sg is Chinese, the Chinese culture was deep rooted in the bottom of every Chinese's heart, the Chinese culture taught that people never steal belongings not yours, never greedy other's belongings is not yours since a Chinese was a child~
Few years ago, I parked my brand new push bike around the corner of my local Tesco Express store(UK)and locked up with a very expensive lock. An hour later, the bike disappeared but the lock remained!! Cheeky arrogant thief! Fortunately it didn't cost me much(won some money from the races), the bike had some balancing issue, good luck to whoever riding it! Developed country eh!!!
In the traditional Chinese moral system, there is a rule called "拾金不昧", which means that if you find something valuable, you should return it to the owner without asking for any reward.
In China, if you commit a crime, you will be recorded. Not only will they be imprisoned and fined, but they will also affect future generations in finding jobs and be isolated by neighbors. So in China, the cost of committing crimes is very high.
Because China people have been taught by their families since childhood that "Don't touch things that are not yours. First, it will give people a feeling of rudeness. Second, it will easily lead to unnecessary misunderstandings. Third, it may be a trap." Therefore, most people in China will not touch other people's things easily, and there will be exceptions, but it is relatively rare. This kind of test should not be done as much as possible in case things are really stolen.
I am Chinese and before I came to Europe, I had always thought that being a thief is a profession which means normal people wouldn't be interested in others possession even if they get a chance. It confused me a lot when I came to Europe and realised some normal people on the street can just spontaneously become a thief if they want, can even be your colleague who has a good salary😮 I think this is due cultural background and family education. To some culture I guess it's not a shameful thing to steal but more like being lucky?😅
In China, everyone can buy a laptop with their own salary, so there is no need to steal. Moreover, if you are put in jail for stealing, you will not be able to find a high-paying job, which is not worth it.
I think it might be a cultural thing. I have been living in China since my mid-20s and have always found it to be a very safe place, even in the old days. When I talked with a few close friends about why theft is low in China, one of them told me that stealing is considered a very lowly activity in Chinese culture. Even robbery is viewed as less shameful than theft. I believe "thief" itself is a swear word in Chinese, but I might be wrong about that. He actually joked that he would never consider stealing because he couldn't bear the reputation damage. If he wanted to make money from me, he would persuade me to buy things I would never need in my life. 😂
This kind of test is completely unnecessary, why do they steal your things? They don't even want to see it, which doesn't mean a place is safe or anything else. It can only be said that people in this place live a good life and don't need to steal from you. I also saw a boring test where a foreigner intentionally threw away his wallet in a Chinese park, and passing Chinese people would remind him that his wallet was lost, but no Chinese person would pick it up and return it to him because they don't want to have any connection with that wallet. Just record the fact with your video, there is no need to compare it, because it is meaningless. Good and bad coexist in China and any other country in the world. Therefore, enjoy your trip and don't have too low or too high expectations. Just travel is enough
I left my bike at an entrance of a subway station, then something urgent happened to me and I needed to go to another city to deal with it . Six months later, when I come back to that subway station, my bike was still there!
Plus some tickets. 6 months! That's unauthorized parking and an eye sore. How many time they had to wash your bike while cleaning the street? I am surprised the city didn't consider it as unauthorized dumping or the police didn't start to check for missing people.
@@tonyc5384 Because China has such a large population, usually unless your stuff is parked in an illegal or prohibited place, no one will move it. Not to mention 6 months, it may still be there after 1 year without a ticket.
We see this in the US and say yeah, but can they vote?? AS if that has made a difference in the past 5 decades. I'd take the freedom to have safety over the freedom to vote any day
Your vote doesn't really count in the US. It's just a show for sheep to continue the illusion of freedom under one corporate war party with two factions.
Freedom to vote is a lie. Are we free to vote for a moral person that represents our best interests? No. Then we don't have freedom to vote. just choose from different flavours of excrement.
In June 2023, I took a one-week business trip and forgot to lock my door upon leaving my apartment. The door was left half-open for five days until my return. It is a residential building, and I have two neighbors of grandparents/parents/children on the same floor. Counting the janitor woman who comes daily, at least ten people pass my opened door multiple times every day for five days. Yet nobody bothered to try anything terrible, and nothing was gone or touched in my apartment.
i.m living in SH, one day i left out my brand new laptop with box outside to pickup, however i forgot that and after couple of days i just remembered. then i went back to check my laptop, luckly it.s still there without touched but the box r gone😂😂
Two reasons in eastern countries education are More Ethical . Secondly China has cctv camera inside mall and outside every traffic lights and corners in public area. If someone steal it he can be traced by police easily where he goes finally. That is why you feel safe in public places in China.
