Obesity:

• All of my life The Chinese people had been my role models, in keeping Yin and Yang in balance, however, during my recent visits I find a fair number of kids are now obese. In previous decades it was kind of impossible to see a fat/obese Chinese, as the time is progressing now there is no shortage of fat and overweight Chinese, especially overseas Chinese. And this percentage is increasing by leaps and bounds. With this obesity, kids are getting lazy, complacent, and it is the onset of a host of other diseases. Once a kid gets behind in school, he learns to tell lies, and then steal, and the spiral effect of downfall starts. And it has begun in China due to their newfound disposable income. With the grace of Almighty now these kids are increasing in numbers at a reasonable speed. However, adults in the big cities are also adding good pounds of fat on their bodies.

• Also, China’s previous Chinese restriction of one Child policy produced a lot spoiled a little Emperors and Emperoress, six people(two sets of grandparents and parents, wiping only one Royal Hind).

  
  

Food Culture:

• The Chinese culture revolves around food; it was okay when they kept themselves to be in good control with modest eating in small portions. Now as the wealth/disposable income is increasing more fat/dairy/meat in their food, plus generous lazy susan style buffet are killing them.

• It is not just a bowl of Congee and few drops of Soy or Tofu for breakfast, now every meal, loaded with deep fried foods, fatty meat portions, and complacent lifestyle are the destructive forces are already in place. China is not only competing with the USA in prosperity but in fat/obesity levels neck to neck. Young kids are enormous and devouring big meals in Chinese style foods/KFC/Pizza Huts/and the Mighty Golden Arch.

• I have seen Starbucks and native sons/daughter munching cookies, and a healthy dose of a functional layer of fatty looking substance on the top.

• And why not? The Chinese should not be any less than other nationality in fat and girth diameter.

• Soon China will be an excellent opportunity for Diabetes type 2, Coronary diseases.

• The Chinese now like a lot of poultry/pork/ and fatty stuff, gone are days of Buck Choy, at least in the big cities.

I believe now donut/coffee shops also be adding their value in the density of the Chinese.

This food culture is now destroying the Chinese society, from very healthy, small portions and a lot of exercises, it has become a destructive force. With a lot of fat, reduced activity, huge portions, and frequent eating. ( I know a thing or two, with my two master’s degrees in Food Science and Dairy Science, and thirty years experience in the Canadian food/dairy/flavor industry,

Personal Unacceptable habits:

• The Chinese especially males have no hesitation in throwing the nice glob of phlegm on your feet.

( Real incidence: My wife and I were in Xian, we were very excited to visit this night market). Things were going very fine when my wife stumbled upon a massive glob of phlegm on the street. I consoled her when we were walking another gentleman, coughed and threw another load just near her other foot. We were very looking forward to having a nice dinner there, but she said: Let us go to the hotel, I am not hungry anymore.)

The concept of the diaper is not there:

• At one place we were visiting Pagoda, and right in front of the Lord Buddha’s more significant than life statue, parents were helping a toddler to relieve himself/herself.

Talking aloud is a way of life:

We all Asian including myself(East Indian hereditary), we have no respect for our surroundings, be it a coffee shop, restaurant, airplane, train and we talk with our volume full blast. The Chinese are in my view are on top of this volume button and sometimes it is so annoying you really want to throw the coffee/tea on a well-earned peace and quite break and walk out of the coffee shop or sit outside in freezing cold/or burning sun.

Here an incidence:

Today I was dead tired got a coffee and cookie, in Tim Horton, and sat down just for a break, these two Chinese gentlemen, really spoiled my break. Finally, I got up and walked outside and finished my a bit of relaxing time in my vehicle.

These were not Fresh of the Boat, they had reasonable English Speaking skills, but no respect for anything around them. That is how we all Asians are wired, and the Chinese in my view is on top of this noise pollution.

When it summarized it is all about them, rest of the surrounding means nothing to them, well to most of them.

Also, words Thank you, Sorry and recognize anyone’ presence is no no no unless you are Chinese and then you hear the words, Nihow, Xie, Xie, and pauses and Nega, Nega, Nega, Nega

The country is full of superstitions, make-believe stories, Feng Shui and ancient believes of numbers.

• There is still a lot of the Chinese living in ancient times.

• China will take a very long time to become fully developed provided it survives that long, there are a lot of cracks in the system with the new generation is not at all as hard working as the older ones.

In some areas, there are no doors on the toilets:

• People are sitting in a row and relieving themselves, and these are squat type toilets in a row.

• Some Chinese walk in night pajamas and sleepers in the dining rooms or even five-star hotels for breakfast.

Almost every male smokes: There are signs of No smoking, but at present, these laws are not enforced with full force.

Most of the Chinese seems like sleep-starved: As soon the airplane/bus/train is in motion your Chinese co-passenger, may be snoring/bobbing his/her head to find resting place or drooling saliva.

It is almost impossible for non-Chinese to get their trust/or friendship:

• The Chinese so it seems they do not trust foreigners, or it takes a very long time to gain their confidence and friendship.

A small percentage are extremely rude/uncivilized and toxic in their behavior:

• Most of the Chinese are very hardworking, very well behaved, a lot of civilized sense, however, a small percentage are incredibly toxic and misbehaved bunch.

Most of the Chinese are very honest and sell genuine things:

However:

• Some are knowingly counterfeit of sale and garbage even in the small shops and never mind the paddlers.

• Bargaining with peddlers and in small shops may test your patience and skills.

• Some of the things are fake passed on as genuine, I bought SD cards a large number, however later on when I came to Canada and checked these were all fake/counter fit, I lost a considerable sum.

However:

On the right side, it is a fantastic country, with most of the people outstanding.

• These things are a drop in the ocean when you weigh good things about the Chinese, most of them are very good, extremely hard working, mind their own business, welcome visitors, down to earth, a tremendous amount of civic sense.

• China is breathtakingly beautiful, super safe, endless things to learn from the Chinese, such as fine arts, architectures, record keeping through museums, continuous history of thousands of years, design, and one of best preserved national monuments.

• Most of the Government officials and service providers are very polite, extreme customer care and no need to tip.

• Also, China had been a closed country, give her the time, it will catch up very quickly.

Inferior quality products:

The Chinese somewhat improving their quality, when the world is moving towards Six Sigma, the Chinese are overwhelmed with greed now, plastic things which in the past barely met the specification, now are not plastic thin, these items are paper thin. During these years things went to worst. These items are pure junk; some break/fall apart as soon as try to assemble.

I believe the Chinese business people asked for this premature death and it is imminent.

A few words on Canadian Chinese or overseas Chinese as they are known in China.

Tiger moms:

• I met and dealt with some very obnoxious Chinese Tiger moms, total lack of manners, shouting, and it appeared to me they are going to attack the other person physically.

• Be a “Docta” or marry a Docta” syndrome and causing stress on the other ethnic groups also. Go to “ Harvard” or at least “UCRA” no ma'am, it is “ UCLA.”

• To excel in academics causing massive pressure on the other immigrant groups at home.

• Almost all the high-end universities and treasured programs are disproportionately hogged by the Chinese. And the proof is in the pudding go any pharmacy/hospital/med lab/dental specialist/ and you do the math.

• In grocery stores, if some items are on Sale, good luck for the others to have some things too.

• These kids may be right in courses/academics, but there is a lot of things these kids are very behind. In other words, Canada especially in Toronto, Ontario, it is becoming a Chinese mom’s domain. Other ethnic kids and some including Chinese kids hate these Tiger moms.

• So much so one Chinese girl hired contract killers to kill her parents/brother. Mom was murdered, and dad barely escaped.

Group attack/cornering the market/and then monopolize

• The Chinese method is to isolate an opportunity or weakest of weak, and then attack in a group and then monopolize the market. One victim/one piece at a time that is what is happening in some cities in Canada.

• I have first-hand experience in real estate with them.

• In schools/colleges/universities most of the Chinese kids work in groups, I have seen first hand they do the assignments/projects in groups. It is plagiarism; the professor may not know what fact is and what is the fiction. With this approach, most of these students do well in academics, may not be in life.

• Some of them have parked their families here and suck the benefits without contributing anything substantial to the Canadian economy.

• Staying and binding together like “sticky rice.”

Staying together and binding like sticky rice is in their culture.

• Drive round Chinese dominated areas in Toronto and saw the parking lots of the Chinese Churches full with the private police guys guiding the traffic.

• Well, well, well they are not all doing the Bible studies for two days non stop, it is all about the Chinese Tiger moms exchanging the information and tales of their kids' trophies. And the dads exchanging business cards. And the kids swapping school assignments, and how to ace the exams.

• Are they brilliant, not more than average percentage of any race, I went to grad school with some of them, and my kids went to school/university/ with them from KG to the right up to grad schools?

Wealthy Chinese and child delivery in Canada:

• Either the Canadian Government is dumb or knowingly allowing this, wealthy Chinese come here to drop the baby here, get a Canadian passport and say “Good Bye” to China.

Isn’t Canada great?

• Wealthy Chinese spoiled kids in University towns are a total nuisance with penthouses, high-end cars and other distractions to poor/mediocre students coming from families with meager resources.

However:

• There is the substantial percentage of Canadian Chinese are very hard working, Provide a top rate product and service, and above all extremely high work ethics.

• Not all students are like the spoiled brats, most of them are extremely hard working, honest and mind their own business.

• Most of the Chinese progress is made on the failures of the West; the Chinese did not invent anything original it is all copying and mass scale disrespect for patent/copyright/and theft of intellectual property.

• My crystal ball tells me: Law of Karma, easy come easy go, you reap what you sow

a. The new generations usually become lazy and complacent.

b. Arms of Humans may short to catch and punish the people. However, there is always divine justice, He/She sends opium, Video Games and other associated evils

In my view in coming decades, the Chinese influence specifically in Toronto and the surrounding area will be extremely high.

My Crystal Ball says the following:

• You may think that you live in Toronto Canada, but in fact, most of it will be all Chinese, culture/competition/food/

• There will be a massive influx of biracial babies with Chinese mother and white Caucasian father. This biracial will become eventual a powerful group with its own identity.

Yesterday, I met Chinese grandparents with a toddler with very mixed features, they without much English and with not much Mandarin, I concluded rest of the usual story, these were Grandparents straight from a rural area of China, the daughter came here as a student. And I know the rest of the typical story.

However:

(This phenomenon/trend may look small. However, all big rivers started as a small stream at one time)

• Canada needs immigrants: What could be a more win-win situation, a Canadian boy meets right Chinese girlfriend and future wife, after falling in “LOVE” in the university town after all life is to find the right partners along with supposed education.

• Now the babysitting service straight from China came with this wedding blessing.

• The Chinese girl from most likely from rural China, realized the Canadian/North American dream, also by importing her parents and dependent brothers and sisters. Good Bye: China, and Hello Canada, Good Bye to uprooted life of Three Gorges.

My crystal ball/close to five decades of experience/ enormous sample size which will meet any statistical significance.

The profile of such alliance,

• Most of these Chinese girls are poor/rural area belong most likely illiterate parents.

• Their agenda is to get Canadian/North American credentials and find a most preferably white caucasian background because most of them have an illusion of old reruns of American glory, some fake and some real. These serials were glorifying the white race, without showing the so-called Trailer Parks, and White Trash crowds.

• And eventually, sponsor the whole clan if possible.

• These girls usually have very low self-esteem, some of the things white boys tell me those things are not fit for to mention on the social form.

• On the other hand, these white boys are not from elite white, blue blood either; they do not know Clintons/Bushes/ and the Canadian first families the Titans like the Westons on the first name basis. These boys have equally very low self-esteem, maybe some have been through multiple breakdowns in a relationship, and perhaps some getting older in an age without much action, in some maybe did have any success in their race.

My crystal balls tell me this is a growth area.

• Only because we know white on white fertility is very low due to a lot of reasons, that is a topic for another time.

• That is why in a few decades we will have a high percentage of biracial generation of its reasonable count. The Asian most likely Chinese and the White Caucasian mix.

• People are free to choose what they like to do, however, in the coming decade's Geneticists, Scientists, Medical Experts and the rest of populations have to adjust with this new mix. The World does not have full data on new experiments of mixing and matching.

• And above all, the adjustment of mixed/biracial society in the coming decades. ( Of course, a new generation is brilliant to quote the example of Tiger Woods product of Black father and Korean mother), but any statistician will have a lot of problem with this sample size. However, as now we know more about Tiger Woods it was not a good example.

Going to mainland China once again:

The Chinese are very original they are not copying machines which most of the world thinks about them.

• They can make “ Plastic Rice.’

• They can make exact “ I phone.’

• They can increase the protein content of baby food by adding Melamine(Paint). I even did not know yet with two master’s degree in the field. Some of the Chinese business people have no conscious ruthless and unbelievable.

• Fake educational institutes,

• Phony business fronts,

Also: Never let your guard down, this nice ni hao, and Xie, Xie, and cute bow down and mannerism in presenting their card, is honest business, maybe most of them they are genuine in their intentions.

However:

Some do have a dagger to put straight in your heart. This way is very nonconfrontational, sweet and the victim is dead in one plunge in the back or the best jugular vein. This way no one will doubt the culprit of the damage. I know it happened to me a few times, although still, enjoyable experience is far more than backstabs.

Here is a word of caution:

The new generation a good number is hollow as the Chinese grandparents call them The Bamboo Generation, some need help to give up video game addictions.

Or

Some grandparents call them The Banana Generation, Yellow from outside White from inside. Means the Chinese from the outside but Wannabe Whites from inside.

Also, the new generation well most of them are riding on the coattails of two generations of sacrifice by their great-grandparents and grandparents.

Also write on the walls, that the new Virus /addictions are cell phones/social media/and Video Games, Chairman Mao has to revisit to clean this dirt again.

A small footnote:

• I do care about China and the Chinese:

China’s success is/was my inspiration and motivation, now seeing all those great achievements from 1949 to onwards, are going to fall like a pack of cards. I am kind of heartbroken when seeing all this happening.

• I do care about the Chinese conventional wisdom:

• I do care and respect the contributions of the Chinese in the ancient time.

• I do care that. Still, a significant portion of the Chinese is extremely hard working and sincere people.

• I do care, even if they say they are atheists but do believe most of them have found true God, they have discovered, Karm Yog, which as per Hinduism/Buddhist beliefs, that you can reach God through good deed and actions. We have a lot to learn from the Chinese about this path in real life.

• Philosophically thinking: No one is an angel when most of us see food/money/laziness/complacent/excess we all follow the same route of destruction, bit by bit, step by step, all the great civilizations before our time did it and now we the present generation are doing it, it is called self-destruction and victim of your growth.
