Today 29th March 2011, marks the third week of my trip to Wuhan, China.
Throughout my 3 weeks of stay in China, I've experienced a lot to what that can't be learnt in Singapore itself.
Firstly, the most general spitting issue here in China.
I'm sure all of us is pretty bothered by Chinese nationals spitting as and when they like, don't we? As seen from the small group presentation for our OIE module, many of us have included hygiene as a difference as of in China and Singapore. I think it's really gross to see some pinch of phlegm when you're happily walking down to road. To me, its as if that one spit and spoil my entire day. Let alone if someone's fluid got onto you. Like YUCK, seriously. If Singaporeans were to do the same in Singapore itself in the midst of a crowd, hundred pairs of deadly eyes will be staring at you straight into your eyes. Oh right, Singapore being a fine city, you might also want to think of the amount of fine that will be imposed on you! Maybe some corrective work order too?
I find that the littering issue is quite a big problem too. That's what I see in them, but probably they won't know how bad the situation is until they are in Singapore. Singapore, to me, is a relatively clean country if comparison were to be make. I hardly get to even see any dustbin around when walking on the streets. I'm kinda pitying the cleaners here in China. They seem like they've got never ending rubbish to clear and sweep. If I were them, I would probably just faint.
And next, extra services for you mdm?
Well, I haven't really experience a situation of that but some of my guy friends were telling me about it.
Trip to the supposedly-written-on-the-signboard "Foot Reflexology", might be a disaster if you were to enter it alone, especially at night. Who knows you might be still a virgin when you are next seen. That's what me and some of them were discussing about that time when Calvin and JianLiang went into it!
I think I've seen a guy walking out from a room behind a wall, which is quite hidden, I would say. After which, about a minute later follows a lady. Hmmm... doubts for takeaway?
As far as this is concern, I think we should all take precautions when we are in China because extra services might be anywhere, anytime on anyone!
Life here is getting more and more interesting, I would say. It seemed that we have already adapted to the environment and pretty much got used to the little things we used to complain about. Right my friends? :)
PS: This is getting really lengthy, so stay tune for the next post! ^^
