Discrimination against Foreigners in China

[Gualtier Malde]

did anyone not see the video about the white guy who got beat up in beijing on a road?

apparently whoever posted the vid is very proud of what they did.

if you saw all of it, that is the brit who was trying to [CodeWord123] the woman in the park. not condoning anyone beating up anyone else, but the dude was on video trying to [CodeWord123] a woman. i have very, very little sympathy for what happened to the dude later. he will be very lucky to make it out of china alive in any case.

Curious as to where this conversation will go. I agree with ShangHangin. I have been treated well. Personal space is not as large as in the US or Europe. Buses and metros can get pushy. There are, no doubt, some bad actors.

Exact. A lot of discussions about it these days in China but I would not say it is dangerous. Make sure you have your passport with you and papers in order if you live there. There is a problem with a lot of foreigners working in China while on tourist visa. And english teachers already have a bad reputation to start with (viewed as slackers who can't get a job in their own countries, have poor moral values and just f*k around different Chinese girls while cheating them. Most of which is generally true). I have certainly seen my share of foreigners are think that they are allowed to do anything because they are not home, get drunk, annoy everybody and abuse Chinese. Chinese are getting tired of this. But for the average nice guy who does not behave like he is so special, life is good.

Here is the story about the British guy:

China is a safe place. I have been living here 10 years with no issues. But foreigners who behave badly deserve to be deported, just as in our home countries. Don't think you can come to China and leave all your manners and civility at home. Yes, there is good mongering, but you need to act appropriately. Quite candidly, if I had seen the Brit forcing himself on a local girl, I would have intervened as well (would not have beat him up). If you have your paperwork in order and act appropriately, you will have no problems and can have loads of fun! Enough said.

yes it is true. if you come to china, have your papers in order. and please, don't come here with the expectation that you get to [CodeWord123] women on the street. that's what started this whole thing, a very badly behaving brit who tried to [CodeWord123] a woman in a park. the whole thing was caught on a phone camera and posted on the web.

ESPN used the same term in the 2008 Olympics.

Racism in America against Asians is alive and well.

Too bad people in Asia are too ignorant to realize it

I believe that the copy editor is now unemployed and the news anchor earned himself a thirty days suspension. The news anchor tweeted that his wife was asian. He would never knowingly say something to disrespect her ethnicity. I guess at home, he will be on indefinite suspension. No nookie during suspension.

I had question in my mind for a while!

Does anyone ever met a xinjiang men with a Chinese GF from other province mostly from north, Even thought I heard lot of Chinese mainland girls saying xinjiang men are cute and good looking, its very hard to find a BF and GF. I had never met anyone till now. Had seen reverse!

[Redline5]

And the police for years have done nothing about it. Not they're not just robbing asians,

But this is the 3rd case where a family was gunned down within the last year.

Chinese man, baby daughter shot dead in Rome.

ROME (AFP). A Chinese man and his two-year-old daughter were shot dead and the man's wife wounded in Rome late on Wednesday during a botched robbery, Italian media reports said.

The man, who had yet to be identified, was with his wife and daughter when two youths approached them on a scooter and demanded money.

When the family refused, all three were shot, the Repubblica newspaper said citing eyewitness reports.

The man died instantly from a bullet to the chest while his young daughter, who was in his arms at the time, was shot in the head and died on the way to hospital, according to the Corriere della Sera daily's website.

Africans & Asians Attacked By Mob In Greece.

http://ournewsnow.com/international/1120/Africans-

%2526-Asians-Attacked-By-Mob-In-Greece

There was a Greek guy age about 45yo that at o6:30 came down from his flat and walked 30 meters away to go bring his car in order to take his wife to the hospital. She was going to give birth to their first child. He was so happy that was holding a video camera in order to record all that.

He was approached by three Asian / Africans and was stubbed to death for the camera that was later sold for 80 euros. His wife was still waiting for him in their door steps but he never went back.

Police found them about 10-14 days later.

That was the reason of all these attacks to Asian / Africans. Because they killed an innocent Greek for 80 euros.

Thanks

Ok, was at a BBQ over the July 4th weekend, and heard from someone else at the BBQ, that their relative was attacked and killed recently in Greece because he was Asian,

Apparently during these riots, gangs have specifically seeked out and hunted down Asian immigrants.

I will try to find a news article on it, so you won't just say I am making it up.

Guess being denied entrance to a club is as bad as getting killed <cough
