i hate when things like that happend man fainted for 50 minute and nobody care to look but when the ambulance is their everyone wants a peek of whats is going on. i fell like this is a very Chinese thing. every time their are ambulance or a group of law enforcement a lot of Chinese will stand around to take a look at whats is going on. its like they are so noisy. i mean their are people like that in the USA but i fell they are less i have seen people walk pass by when people get arrested but in china once someone is arrested their is always a big crowed to see whats is going on. this things also happens during accident. when their is an accident their is always a large crowed of onlookers but no body goes to help in china. this is like a repeat of what happens to the little girls who got run over

I don't agree with the word "always", it certainly isn't "always a large crowed of onlookers but no body goes to help in china" because I can provide to you not one or two but many exceptions. Remember when learning from second hand information there is always a bias towards more provocative events, therefore when someone fainted and someone helped the person, the news won't go far; but when someone fainted and nobody helped, or when someone fainted and someone helped, and then gets extorted for money, the news tend to spread very quickly.

Nevertheless, there is a saying in China that some people are afraid of helping others in accidents because there is a lack of legal protection for good Samaritans. To learn more about this you can read my writeup here: http://www.sinodefenceforum.com/members-club-room/civil-law-china-6387.html#post228823 which I have spent several hours to type but got no response so far.

Hmmm.....yet you missed out on the ALL the photos that Popeye displayed showing Chinese people helping each other out during natural disaster, but instead pin point on this particular incident as a broad brush stroke to display a negative "Chinese thing."

Re: Chinese Daily Photos, Videos & News of 2013!!!

i have seen and read picture of people helping others in disaster but i will say that most of the time they wont. i remember the out pours of help during the 2008 sichuan earthquake. i miss spoke when i says always. but i also notice that such news never happen in the western world nor places like japan or Korea. therefore i say that this seem to be a Chinese thing. in part in my opinion is not because civilians are selfish but rather the lack of emergency service. china does not even have a 911 instead their is a a different line for every other emergency. however i do stand by the thing that their is always a large crowds of onlooker whenever emergency service are around and this does not seem to happend has much in other world. like the example i gave if a chines police arrest someone a large crowd will gather to see what is happening. its more of a noisy thing.

You reach this conclusion by watching news or by doing a scientific survey across China yourself? If you get it from the news, I already explained to you why it's going to be an extremely biased representation of the real world.

but i also notice that such news never happen in the western world nor places like japan or Korea. therefore i say that this seem to be a Chinese thing.
This is not a Chinese problem. I think this is a problem about your lack of awareness on what happens in the "western world".

Just go to youtube and search "bystander effect", it should tell you how wrong your conclusion is.

in part in my opinion is not because civilians are selfish but rather the lack of emergency service. china does not even have a 911 instead their is a a different line for every other emergency.
China has separate numbers for police and other emergencies, so does Japan and South Korea. Having separate numbers has little correlation with the quality of emergency service. Besides, in more and more places these separate numbers are getting processed at the same dispatch center or even from the same desk. If you can read Chinese you may search for "三台合一".

however i do stand by the thing that their is always a large crowds of onlooker whenever emergency service are around and this does not seem to happened has much in other world. like the example i gave if a chines police arrest someone a large crowd will gather to see what is happening. its more of a noisy thing.
They stop and watch an arrest, so? In the US people stop and watch too, they even come out of their house to watch if it happens in a residential area. The crowd is usually smaller in the US because, obviously, the population density is much smaller. When you have more people, you have more noise, but there's nothing inherently wrong.

Is fresh milk expensive in China? I abhor powdered milk.
Yashili's milk powder products are displayed at a supermarket in Beijing May 20, 2013. China's domestic milk powder firms are showing signs of a comeback, boosting their international credentials to escape the long shadow of a deadly melamine scandal in 2008, creating a potential challenge to the multinationals who currently dominate the booming sector. Leading the way, milk powder specialists such as Biostime International Holdings Ltd, Yashili International Holdings and Zhejiang Beingmate Scientific-Industrial Trade Share Ltd have seen share prices rocket.
