What is making you not to visit China.

Note this is not IB thread hokays?
So leave the political hate/patriotism stuff off this discussion :)

visited China before Covid.

but after Covid , always been going to japan and korea.

reason : If those youtube videos of massive unemployment, bankruptcies and what nots are true, that means there's a lot of desperate people in there.

when there's a lot of poor and desperate people, I don't want to be in that country doing anything as a tourist.

during CNY, i once drove from hunan to shenzhen. it normally takes 9 hrs, but the heavy traffic increased that to 2 days. the interstate rest areas sold instant noodles and had hot water for customers. malaysia doesn't have such service. i'm fine with any hygiene standards, but i felt it was comparable to malaysia, europe & america's interstate rest areas. it all depends of usage frequency. heavy use means it will stink more

China is a must visit tourist place in our life. Only issue is not enough time to cover the vast landscape...

Chinese saying goes, 不到长城非好汉. Luckily I have been to 八达岭. Many more places to explore, not enough time.

I made 3 trips to china last year, and I feel very confident to go there for holiday. My mandarin is half past 6, but I figured my own ways to get around that handicap.

The only issue that prevents me holiday in China is really The Wife. She has this mindset that is hard to rub off, because of all the nonsense youtubes she watches.
She just thinks food there is all oily and unhygienic.

So you ask me, its a mindset thing people get from the wrong sources of media.

Nothing there that is worth going except maybe for the 水疗官. Used to have dongguan but now she sweeping yellow nothing in china is nice.

Food - many fakes.
People - loud, rude, cut your queue.
Scenery - Go Japan or Vietnam and Thailand same.
Attractions - same as Singapore.
