  • We have been in China for a while now, but how safe have we felt? China is often demonised by the West as being very unsafe for foreigners.

    I'm German, living in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 since 35 years and I have travelled China for 35 years.
    I remember the time when China wasn't so save in the 90th but it was still more save than in Europe.
    I've been in every corner of China and my family is German/Chinese mixed.
    When I say anything positive about China in my German home country, people always telling me that I live "too long" in Asia 🌏.

    I first visited China in 2016 as a solo older female traveler. I arrived with exactly the same misconceptions that you had but this changed very quickly! I’ve never felt as safe traveling solo anywhere as I do in China. I had a similar experience with my phone in Shanghai. Went back after an hour and found it exactly where I had been sitting. I’ve now been back to China six times, traveling all over and made it my business to learn everything I can about China. Learning basic mandarin was a game changer especially traveling in more remote areas. I’ve made so many friends who I keep in touch with and visit when I can. Wonderful country and people ❤ visiting China is a must do!!

Obviously, different cities will be different like every country in the world and it all depends on different factors. But in general, China is extremely safe for foreigners.

    I once left my laptop on a shared bicycle and it took me a whole day to realize it. It was only a day later when I viewed the monitor and realized that three guys had taken my computer. At first I thought the computer would never be found. But when I took a chance and asked the lost and found at the subway station next to the bicycle , I actually found my computer there. It turned out that the boys were afraid of losing my computer, so they sent it to the lost and found for safekeeping. China is not only very safe, but also has a lot of warm-hearted people.

    As a Brit who has lived in china for 17 going on 18 years, I hope more folks like yourselves promote the truth about China. I grew up in the UK during the cold war and of course any mention of communism instilled a kind of fear in the population due to the threat of missile attacks. The communist government of China is not the same, so much good is accomplished for the people under the government here. In the 90's I moved to work in Silicon Valley and spent the bext 16 years there before moving to China. While America has a lot to offer as a country, I lived under the potential threat of gun violence, drug gang violence and large numbers of homeless in one of the richest countries in the world. Since moving to China I have never felt in anyway threatened, it''s safe to walk the streets in the early hours without any worries about muggings or safety for my wife. Hope you'll ba back soon.

      lol because you are not chinese citizen. Yes they do have social credit as the west do. Here in Australia, the bank need to check criminal history, loan history, rental history, etc, then manually work out the social credit, but in China, they made it simpler to apply job, get loan, etc.
      I was in Shenzhen for 2 years. Once I crossed when light was red with my electric bike. The police stopped me and 4 other guys. One by one, they got fined by scanning their Citizenship card, then the police explained it's 12rmb and 2 credit deduction. When it was my turned, I showed the photo of my passport from phone and he scratched his head few times, then tell me to go on. LOL, the other 4 guys complained.
      Another time I went to see some new apartments with my friends. Once the agent knew I'm foreigner, they went back to manager to check the procedure as foreigner doesn't have credit social point etc.
      Also another experience, I made video for my son's homework where he need to explain awareness of taking care our eyes. I edited it a lot and make it extremely funny and educational. The teacher called me next day to get my permission to send that video to national level competition as it's really interactive. I sent updated video with school logo and won that competition. The price was drone toy, a certificate of excellent, and they asked my ID so they can give me the social point award. I don't have Chinese ID, so they exchange that with voucher to supermarket via Wechat scan.
      So yes, social credit exist in China and all around the world. China made the system simple and encouraging their people to contribute to society.
      In Australia, I tried to apply for funding for my son to get in Private school, on their form, they asked us to provide evidence if my family did volunteer jobs to increase our point to register . That's social credit point too, but media will never demonized it.

    Since many viewers here are telling their stories in China, I think I may tell mine. I went to China the past February [2024]. and visited a small town about 30 minutes away by driving from the city of HangZhou. In a mall, we went into a shop, which I believe it is an artist studio, where many art products were displayed on shelves and a large Apple laptop stood on a desk, which I believe is the shop-owner/artist's working desk. Surprisingly, there was no one else in the shop, not the owner or the shop-assistant. My friends took some of the products from the shelves in their hands to discuss the products' aesthetic merits. We stayed there for at least 10 to 15 minutes, during which nobody else walked in. I asked my friends whether the shop-owners would worry about the products and the laptop being stolen. They stared at me (as if I were from another planet). They told me nobody would steal. Yes. When we left the shop and walked in the mall, I saw a bag and a jacket on a bench unattended. The two incidents on one day impressed me very much and that is why even now [June 2024] I still remember them well.

      True in a sense but Google actually made the first move. I was working in China and the company was using Google when Google pulled out of China. They were 70% of the Chinese search engine then and basically, the Google CEO said there should not be any government interference in internet and no government can ever access their data. He went ballistic with the Chinese authorities. They moved to HK and expect the China internet and e-commerce to collapse. Since I was working in a US company, it did created a lot of issues as we don't have choices and need to gain access to Google mails and have to use VPN or dial direct via Hong Kong. The next major search engine then was Yahoo ( almost 20% plus ). Ultimately, we have to use local search engines who were starting out as well as Google via VPN in our daily work. So we did contribute to Chinese internet development .... LOL after all and we want them to be able to bring their standard up to Google and the world standards. It went faster and better then we ever thought it would. When Google withdrew, the people then were quite upset with the Chinese government as they really like Google. The die hard even have a meme of GOOJIE ( brother Goo can't be used so Sister Goo will fight ) but Google sue those who use the GOOJIE word as it was too close to GOOGLE. These are actually die hard Google supporters. They then switch to local search engine and Google have no way to gain back market shares or trust even if they wanted to as it is too costly for them now.

After the reborn of China in 1949, we Chinese tried our best to rebuild our broken country. The first generation devoted themselves to the country, making it sovereign. The second generation devoted themselves to make the country prosperous, and the third generation try their best to make it stronger, both economically and militarily. We invade no one during these generations, and we shared our progress with the world. What we want is just a stable and fair international environment, so people all over the world could live better and better, not just the 'developed' countries.

    My family moved to Canada from China in 1990s when my son was 9 years old. One day my son asked me - Dad, why the China I was told in my class is not the China we just left? I don’t think China is as bad as my teacher taught us.
    I had a conversation with my son’s teacher for the concern and offered that I can provide the updated information of China for her teaching. However the teacher told me that what she taught the students are what the provincial authority taught the schools to teach, she can’t do anything else.
    It was the time that Canada/ America was in the friendliest time with China. Now I am not sure what the schools are teaching but I do know that media (Canada and America) lie every day when they “report” China. Believe me, they simply lie - CBC, CTV, CNN, Fox whatever.

      For many years, Western media outlets such as the BBC, CNN, and DW seem to have been trapped in a cycle of predetermined positions, stubbornly clinging to flawed premises and constructing so-called "damaging information" from them. They excel at making sweeping generalizations and leading the audience to accept their conclusions without proof, which calls into question their impartiality and objectivity.

    One thing I couldn’t understand is that in western countries some people would have problem with surveillance cameras in public areas, because it violates privacy. Why is privacy needed in public areas? Don’t they know ‘private’ and ‘public’ are two completely opposite ideas? If you’re not up to no good, why are you so afraid of being seen? Plus, it’s not every camera a camera for security purposes or tracking people’s traces (for people who had criminal records or suspicious activity), there are also cams for traffic monitoring, speeding, weather monitoring and etc. So yea, that’s that.

Their defamation of China and Chinese people through various channels makes me feel particularly sad, and they even do not allow their relatives, friends, or even people in their respective regions to have any kind and positive evaluations of China.

    I'm from Beijing, China and now I'm studying in Berlin. Before my first class in Germany beginned, I left my phone on the desk and went out of the classroom to the bathroom. After 2 minutes I came back and saw my professor(an Irish) at my desk. He looked at my seriously and reminded me to not leave my phone behind on the desk. At that time I was a bit nervous for it was my first class in a new country, and I caught an old and famous professor's attention just because of this silly(?) act. But I was also a little shocked by his advice, as I thought it's on campus...I sometimes left my computer for 4 hours in the cafeteria/canteen of Peking University, if it's not so busy and won't take up others' space at that time . Also in Starbucks/Costa, I can't see any problem of leaving my degital devices behind, and then go to the bathroom. I thought people in public are watching and how can it be thieves? I have to admit that this's what my education and experience taught me, a girl born in around 2000, Beijing. And now I realize that it's not because of people watching. It's because of the cameras, which I've hardly, ever noticed. And my Irish professor is so kind to remind me as situations are different here.
    Happy to see your videos! It's like magic that you're experiencing Chinese culture, and I'm also coming across German culture everyday and sometimes Irish style! I really enjoy living in Germany. I love German bread, Bratwurst, Sauerkraut....I'm also curious about Ireland, for example what does the Irish bread taste like? For when I said I love German bread, my professor said he also loves bread and makes them at home, but Irish!
    The best way to know sth. is to experience it in person! What I'm going to say at last is, welcome to visit my hometown, Beijing next time!

Wait until you arrive, then budget some time to study how people of your age dress to look smart and blend at different places. (town centers vs a nature walk). OFF. Then shop first for the right stores (according to your budget). You will then be ready for the next, bigger step: learning higher Asian standards of behavior.

    No… “the negative perception a lot of the world thinks”(1:12) about China is NOT the view of the vast majority of people in the Global South; which accounts for 87% of the world’s population. The people that have these negative perceptions are from the collective West and it’s vassal state allies (USA, Canada, EU, The UK, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, The Philippines, Pacific island nations, Israel), which is NOT representive of “the world”, as the West often thinks and says. Americans and many Europeans often don’t realise that the American (and to a lesser extend the UK) media’s global reach is massive and the largest in the world. The Americans run the largest propaganda machine in the world. This is a FACT, that can be fact checked. The Americans control a lot of the global Geo-political narrative; even if it’s skewed and full of misinformation. So it is not surprising that most people in the West have an anti-China, anti-CCP bias. Only from experiencing each country for ourselves, can we debunk these false narratives and flat out lies.

    What a nice video. I like to hear you tell the truth. Doesn't matter if is good or bad about a country, I only want to hear the truth. I have also been to China and those southeast countries. I had the same experience as yours, I got scammed in Vietnam, the Philippines & India, but I didn't encounter any scam in China, no single one!!! China is safe, clean and much more advanced than those 3 countries too. I sort of understand why the America hates China now.

      The teaching from 3000 years ago is deep inside the Chinese minds. There might have been brief periods when it swayed away a wee bit, but normality has been resumed. A well looked after Chinese won't want to go the bad way.

    Let's not talk about the United States, which is a country with frequent shootings and a high crime rate. Robberies and drugs are rampant, and the streets are full of homeless people setting up tents. This is also the case in many Western countries. Would you dare to walk alone on the streets of the United States in the early morning? And in some Western countries, especially ladies, would you dare to walk alone on the streets in the early morning? In China, you can go out to eat on the street if you are hungry at 1 a.m., because there are surveillance cameras everywhere in China. If you commit a crime and rob others, you have been captured by the surveillance camera and will be arrested the next day. China's surveillance cameras are used to monitor criminals. Western media say that China's surveillance cameras are used to monitor Chinese people. This statement is really ridiculous. You are an ordinary Chinese civilian. What are you being monitored for? What is there about you that is worth monitoring? China has a population of 1.4 billion. As long as you don't commit a crime, the government doesn't bother to care about you.

    There are basically no homeless people in China, which solves the main safety problems. So why is there no homeless people in China? 1. Chinese people like to save money to avoid extreme situations. 2. the homeless are a shame to local governments or family members, so they usually receive substantial help quickly. 3. There are no large-scale drug users because the cost of drug use and sales in China is too high.

    As a Chinese, I am even more curious than you about what "social credit score" is... because I haven't heard of it for more than 30 years. Later, I thought, could it be the Sesame Credit function of Alipay? It will give you a score based on your consumption behavior. If the score is high (such as timely return and exchange of goods, timely repayment of loans, etc.), the points will be increased. People with high points can rent some things without deposit, such as power banks or bicycles...? It is the closest thing to "social credit score" that I can get. But it is a strange statement that if the score is too low, you will be shot. All Chinese people will laugh to death when they hear it.

    The main reason why Chinese sounds loud to European speakers is that Chinese has four tones. The rise and fall of pitch in Chinese can make it sound loud and even aggressive to people who are used to languages with less pitch variation.

      I'm not sure about the tone of language. As a Chongqing native, I can take my city as an example. People in the dining places speak loudly, sometimes even deliberately speaking loudly. There are also drinking games during meals and drinks. Often, loud speaking is a way to deepen the meaning of language expression, and the momentum of drinking games. But this is our Chinese life, our customs, which may be different from foreign countries, but so what? Do we have to change for this? Spitting everywhere I think is a bad habit, but the sound level of speaking is definitely not. In addition, spitting everywhere is mainly a quality education of the older generation, and the younger generation rarely has this problem.
