Noi tutti dalle mie due parti dobbiamo imparare che il miracolo della Cina e anche un miracolo dell'Umanita'. e che dobbiamo apprezzarlo e non cercare di danneggiarlo. Io spero che il senso di egualta e comunita che Il popolo Cinese ha rafforzato tramite l'esperienza comunista rimanga sempre vivo nel vostro popolo, per tutti i popoli.

      The BBC will say that everything you say is false. Western audiences will say that you have received money from the Chinese government.😂
      Accusing China, the Chinese people and the Chinese government is the Political correctness of the West. We disdain arguing anymore. It doesn't matter, whatever they say will not affect our lives. We just need to know that we are doing well ourselves. Sometimes I feel even more pitiful when I see those people. They criticize others without seeing the sadness of their own lives.

    I've been spending a few days in Chongqing recently. I found that the city has a relatively young and energetic population. You can hardly get over-weighted because of the need to negotiate the uphill and downhill walk all the time. My tummy can't handle spicy food, therefore, I missed out on a lot of local cuisines. But still, there are plenty non-spicy food options. It's an experience not to be missed.

    The origin of Chongqing, a place name, comes from double celebration.Chongqing is a place name named by an emperor in Song Dynasty.Chongqing has a history of 834 years.Since an emperor of the Song Dynasty was promoted twice in a year, the emperor changed his name to Chongqing, which means double celebration.
