China’s New Faces Marrying into Her Family part3

admin — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 02:26:06 +0000

In a traditional marriage, a woman marries into the husband?s family, and her children take on the family name of their father. However, in some rich cities in Zhejiang Province, things are changing.

The one-child policy has left some families with only one daughter. Feeling the need to carry on their family lineage, women now look for men who are willing to marry into their families so that their children could take up the mother?s surname. Meanwhile, men from other provinces are finding it hard to make ends meet in the cities, not to mention supporting a family. Because of this, some men are willing to do what it takes for a better life. With supply and demand in place, matchmaking agencies dedicated to this type of marriage are a thriving business.

This could be a win-win situation, but are things always as good as they seem?

China’s New Faces – Give me back the natural scenery – part1

Give me back the natural scenery

Thirty years of reform and opening up brings to China as much prosperity as pollution resulted from industrial development. Industrial wastewater led to polluted river, allegedly the root cause of the drastic rise of cancer cases in Wuli Village. Wai Dongying, a barely educated villager, recorded the death cases one by one in her “Diary of Death”.

Zhang Changjian, a bare-foot doctor in Xiping, Fujian, witnessed the rising number of cancer patients in his village. As the regional officials turn a blind eye to the crisis, Zhang joined forces with more than 1,700 fellow villagers suing the chemical factory in their neighbourhood. Winning the case, Zhang found himself becoming a marked man…

The plight of the two “cancer villages” reveals the harm to the Chinese people brought by water pollution. China should have by now realised the price to pay for over development and that “good” is more important than “fast”.

South Korea – A Tale of Two Faces

admin — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 01:13:01 +0000

This video is about South Korean plastic surgery.

This video lists why Koreans get plastic surgery and one myth listed that non-Koreans think is true but its not.

This video talks about the biggest influence as to why Koreans get plastic surgery.

I mention Western influence and its attraction for Korean women.

I dont mention every plastic surgery South Koreans had. I don’t mention skin bleaching for example and other methods. I mention the common ones though.

I mention why foreigners are flocking to South Korea to get plastic surgery.

Confucianism is not talked about in this video. Rather a form of Confucianism is; that being Neo-Confucianism and its influence in South Korean culture. This is not a history lesson.

This video doesn’t talk about which celebrity had plastic surgery. Save that for the others who bash.

Stats are there for both Korean women and men, but there are more that I didnt include. Since most of you know about them, you can skip it though there is one I find troubling about young Korean teens having babies and giving advice about plastic surgery.

This is about South Koreans getting plastic surgery. This video doesn’t talk about Korean Americans.

Thanks for listening.

This is not full proof, but its a good measure on telling the differences between Koreans, Chinese and Japanese. Face shape- please note sounds of voices,traditions,foods and cultures interlink but are extreemly different. Chinese languages grammar and English are the same, while Korean and Japanese are the same grammar wise. The intonation and sounds are very different.
Koreans use Hangul, Japanese use 3 languages Japanese symbols, Chinese symbols and English. You must learn 3 languages to read a Japanese Newspaper and it is read opposite of a western one.

Hope this helps.
