Recently, a very simple question became widely spread online: what China should be proud of? A foreign girl living in China gave a very touching answer.
Lanlan, whose real name is Negar Kordi, is from Canada. She came to China five years ago and is a student at Ningbo University. She loves China and Chinese. The following is China in her eyes.
"It is the easiest country in which to find a job. If you are not too lazy, it is really very simple to find a job in China. I believe there're more job chances here than in any other country in the world."
"The foreign language level is surprising. About 400 million Chinese are studying English. If they can speak good English in the future, China will have the greatest number of English speakers of any non﹣English speaking country."
"The speed of Chinese trains is fast. From Ningbo to Beijing, the train runs 1, 365 kilometers for seven hours and the ticket fare is only 595 yuan. "
"Its public security is great. This country of 1.4 billion people makes me feel safe. I have travelled in many countries, and I think China really is very safe."
"There are much more things China should be proud of. Many Chinese people often criticize China. At first, I believed that they didn't like China or that they loved western countries. But later, I realized that they just set a very high standard for China. They believe that China must be much better than other countries. "
