Stress for chinese people In China, as the economy grows rapidly, there are still lots of problems existing. People in China face lots of stress, such as income imbalance between poor and rich people, environment pollution and future insecurity. In China, more and more people become rich after China adopts a policy to open up and reform. However, lots of people are still under bad condition and need government helps. More and more experts in China urge the government to take more effective measures to helps these poor people. Because these poor people face great pressure. Some people don't have a job and make a living depending on government supports. Some people even think that this society is unfair to them. They also blame the society which don't give them necessary opportunity. If our government can't help these people reduce their pressures, perhaps some serious problems will happen in our society, such as violence. At present, Chinese government has realized this problem and pays more attention to this problem. Chinese government tries to do great efforts to make the society more harmonious. Chinese people have got great benefits from economy development during the past two decades. However, many provinces develop local economy at the expense of environment. More and more rivers are being polluted, and the air is not clean for people to breathe. More and more families have cars. But our government doesn't take effective measures to control the waste gas that cars produce. Everything has two sides. If our environment is worsened in the future, our economy development can be also affected by environment. Besides, the bad environment will affect people's health. In my opinion, it is not too late for central government to take measures in order that environment becomes more friendly to people who live in China. The last main stress that Chinese people face now is the future insecurity. At present, the price of house is so high and medical expense is so expensive. People feel that they must save enough money for their future use. Because in China the social security guarantee system is not good. When people are sick, most of them must totally depend on themselves. So people in China work very hard and save money as much as they can, which makes sure that they have enough money when they need. They are worried about their future and don't know what will happen to them. When they have enough money, they will feel very safe. That is also why Chinese people have so large save and don't consume at random. They care more about future and make sure that their family can have enough money when something urgent happens. In conclusion, I want to mention that Chinese people will become more and more rich even facing some stress right now. They are still confident that China will develop quicker. According to some reports, people trust their central government and think that the government can solve these problems. In my opinion, China is still a developing country and we still make great joint efforts to make our country more beautiful and harmonious. It can be assumed that we can see more confident China in the near future.

If China can merge Her History with the present, the indeed She will emerge as a Great Nation, in all her spendour and Glory. I hope that China does not lose its humanity and empathy towards the less fortunate, because unfortunaltely , with the hold of Globalization, the masses again, worldwide are suffering. All I can see again is an emerging middle class, a few at the top, the Oligarchy using the middle class to subjugate the masses. I pray and hope to God that the Ruling Party develops a method with is a balance of progressive, yet humanitarian values. I pray with all my heart and soul that China has a leader one day that will recieve the MANDATE OF HEAVEN. I don't belong to any party or affiliation, but I will recognise if the Leader is inspired by Heaven or not, that is all that matters. I leave you with these words, forgive me if my spelling is wrong..I say them every night before I sleep.. Guan tian zhidao, zhi tian zhi xin, jin yi..

China right now is touted as the fastest-growing and the biggest econmomy in the whole world. Imagine, a market of a billion people. It's no wonder why thousands of multinational companies are rushing to tap the market of China and/or establish a local operation to take advantage of lower labour cost. Of course, it is always part of development that you can't just delete poverty and other associated problems that easily. As they say, there are always the other side in every story, in every equation. But overall, I think China will eventually be the number 1 world economy in the coming years. China the giant has already awaken. You speak/write well of the English language, you should be proud of that. I am from the Philippines and I understand there are some Filipino teachers working in China for English. Please invite me as a friend.
