having this kind of 同胞, it sometimes can be embarrassing to be chinese. Mainlanders need to improve their 秩序同公德 if they want other races to respect them.

Yes,Mainlanders need to improve their 秩序同公德 , but Hongkongese are not perfect too, some Hongkongese  talk loud like a bitch in restaurants & in shopping mall!  some Hongkongese drive like crazy t ...

I do realize HKers are not perfect too. But do you agree that it's safe to assume more Mainlanders need to improve their 秩序同公德 in comparison? In Beijing, the 11th day of every month is now a designated day to practice lining up properly while waiting for transit. The government had to do it coz Olympics is coming and it knows how embarrassing it is that whole bunch of adults don't know how to line up! If you've ever travelled to Mainland, u'll see a lot of government slogans telling ppl not doing this not doing that, do this do that. All I can say is 秩序同公德 should be taught to little kids at school la. Can't always rely on slogans.

I too feel angry seeing a bunch of western media fabricating stories to insult China. But simple stuff like 秩序同公德 foreigners can see with their own eyes and judge. And if the citizens can't reach a certain standard, foreigners will look down on us the Chinese.

香港人只是有幸不用经历如大耀进、文革等动盪政治运动而比大陸人可以較早接受文明教育，曾幾何時香港不也是週街貼滿告示：不可隨处便瀝、不可隨地吐啖，罚款二仟有可能！還经常唱：垃圾蟲，垃圾蟲，制造垃圾損市容！当年香港人不也一 ...

You have ur pt here. That's why I feel so sad that the communist government spent so much $ on Olympics, space technology.. Things to "prove China to be a strong country". And yet in such a "strong country", so many little kids don't even get basis medication and education. Is sending kaikonaunts to space more beneficial to the 13 billion ordinary citizens, or giving them the very basis human right to get medical treatment and literacy education?

Chinese values fame (mian zi) too much. And always tries to hide its ugly side (eg. HIV, SARS). Really, who's going to be benefited by the government recognizing those problem? If the government at least say sth about those issue, the ordinary folks will know how to better protect themselves. Instead, the government always says it's domestic problem and none of other countries' business.
