Today is the last day of our trip here in China. Tomorrow we will arrive in Vietnam. Today we prefer to remain silent, for respect. Towards the good people we met, real exceptions to everything we wrote yesterday. And towards those who, like us, in spite of everything, want to discover with enthusiasm every place of this wonderful Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We share only this little provocation, a question that soared in our mind, born even before leaving and that made itself strong in the last two months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83d\udc49 Is China really a World power?
The country who still uses coal to produce electricity. It who has no valid environmental regulation and labor law. It who has a huge gap between the few rich and powerful people, and the rest of society. It who plays dirty, doesn’t play on equal terms with the rest of the World. It who has no values and disdains its historical past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Below are some numbers. It’s up to each of you to get informed, acculturate and deepen the subject before drawing conclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
