The West's MSM's lies are being increasingly exposed.
Visitors to China are usually 'shocked' to find out the reality of life in China, and that they had been lied to by their own governments.
The people are friendly; because they are happy; because China is harmonious and successful and builds infrastructure and takes care of all of the people.

Coming together - the Chinese New Year 中国新年
Also known as the Spring Festival, the Chinese New Year on the mainland lasts one week. Preparations will already be under way and include a spring clean and adding festive decorations. New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are a time for family reunions, and for many this means travelling home from the city to the countryside. Chinese New Year is celebrated in many countries and China-towns around the World. GōngXǐ FāCái 恭喜发财 ! The first film, 'Coming Together', is from Malaysia - enjoy ... The Spring Festival is about a new year, a new beginning. A time of renewal, and hope and a fresh start, a time of good-will. For example, fireworks, apart from being a joy to all, are to scare away bad spirits. One can see this symbolize the breaking of old habits of thought – a spring clean of the mind. A new year is a new chance for a better life – if you will take it. Keep your eyes open, heart abundant, and strive for a better world. Help others on their journey whenever you can and always share a smile. It may help another, but it will certainly be good for you. As the second film says, it is love that brings us closer to happiness. Above all, the Spring Festival is a time for family.

China's economic rise through planned industrial policy
China's industrial output is #1 and greater than the next nine countries combined. The US's military spending is #1 and greater than the next nine countries combined.

Real democracy - government by, for, and of the people
The true measure is : does the government work for the people, or vice versa. Is it a sham / illusion / deception 'democracy' - elections, where one is forced to choose between elite factions, that are basically the same ideology? 'Pick a card, any card ...' Or is there a better way based on merit and that is bottom up - a system that truly responds to, and cares for, the people? With Jerry's Take on China ... In China, the people are family. In the West, the people are livestock. -- Recently, out of the hundreds of countries in the world, three decided to suicide, to serve their puppet masters : the Philippines, Argentina and Italy. Will Taiwan (not a country) be next? Are they Chinese or just fodder on a US missile base ??? -- China has defended itself (hence the Great Wall), but never been expansionist ... YT comment : George-rj4fj : "They who point fingers at China, failed to notice the huge expansionism of the Euro-Caucasians throughout the world so that some 2/3 of the world speaks not only English and Spanish but have also been forced into adopting Western cultures, religion, history and clothing. Talk about "cultural genocide"! They who accuses China of "expansionism" are also ignorant of history. Mongolia and Manchuria became part of China not from Chinese Han expansionism of conquest but because China was conquered by the Mongols and the Manchus and became part of THEIR empires. So too did Tibet when it ran wars into China in an expanding of the Tibetan Empire - and was defeated and absorbed in turn. Chinese culture is an amalgamation of all the different cultures that were absorbed into the greater Chinese diaspora. They who do not know history and are content in creating their own versions from western propaganda make themselves foolish by opening their mouths on topical subjects that they have absolutely no idea about."

China and geopolitics : the MSM lies that fool us - don't miss it
The 'threat' of being a good example, that threatens the uni-polar supremacist hegemony goal of the West's elites. While China aims to build up the world (win-win), the West wants to keep it down (to be merely plundered). In China, the people are family; in the West, the people are livestock. The West's mainstream media (and countless shills) churns out an endless stream of lies. Don't be fooled again ! Mind control is nothing other than controlling what you 'know'. MSM news is nothing other than mass hypnosis. It is not there to 'report', it is there to direct / shape / frame / push an agenda. It is there to fool you and get your 'consent'. It is deception / propaganda / front-line warfare. With Jerry's Take on China ...
Hiking the Great Wall 长城 of China in the snow
A great film of the Great Wall north of Beijing, including 'wild wall', accompanied by great music (踏古 (Ta Gu) by Lin Hai, 'Walking into Ancientry', with Chinese lute (pipa)). We [mum, dad - videographer - and son and daughter, from Singapore] hiked 3 sections of the Great Wall in winter, without any guides after studying blogs and posts by fellow hikers. All these sections are different. From the unrestored GuBeiKou Great Wall where we were the only people around, to the wonderful JinShanLing, where the climb is steep and every direction gives you good photo opportunities, to the restored MuTianYu where we hiked in heavy snowfall. We stayed at local farmhouses on both nights, dined with the locals and hitched rides to nearby bath-houses. Temperature ranged from -5 deg C (day) to -12 deg C (night). Winter daybreak is at 7am and the sky becomes dark by 5pm so one has only 10 hours of daylight, so plan your travelling and hiking schedules carefully. This once-in-a-lifetime experience was captured on video and we would like to share it with you. The feelings just can't be described - you need to experience it first hand. Take only memories, leave only footprints and kindness ... A wonderful animation combining traditional Chinese painting and dance - don't miss it ! 踏古-林海 作曲：林海 视频作者：中国传媒大学动画学院

Billions of dollars are spent by Western governments to manufacture negative stories (propaganda) about about China that one sees daily in the Western MSM, and online (there many agents out there).

These countries have openly declared China as a 'threat' and you would be putting yourself in danger.

The 'threat' of China is that it says 'no' to being a slave of the West

Bonus films, with Jeffrey Sachs ... Bonus film, with Cyrus Janssen ... Bonus film, with Yanis Varoufakis and Wongel Zelalem ... Africa owes about 12% of its total external debt to China. The rest is owed to you know who. People on the continent can see what the 12% has been used to develop but can hardly point to what has been done with the rest of the external debt. What is clear is bank accounts that have swindled that unaccounted for money are in the collective west. These are the very countries that go around talking about corruption in Africa. It is in China's interest that trading partners also grow, to conduct healthy trade relations. It is a WIN WIN partnership.
