As I was saying. It's a survey to ask young people what they thought about the desire to go to another country.
As we know all survey can be skew and manipulated. Plus the sample size is small, and the surveyors added their weight (bias) into the outcome. Given the fact most youngsters also have a rose-tinted view of any exotic world.
In addition, given the fact most of these youngsters have not left their own country or indeed their own town. It is not surprising they would want to go somewhere exotic to them.
Heck, my children, when choosing a university, their criteria was the further from home the better!
Also, given the fact they haven't been to the country they believe to be the best. They haven't experienced the kind of racism and xenophobia in those countries. I dare say it would be a rude awakening when they hear cxxxks go home.

Here in the US you have the right thinking the US number one while complaining about how liberals have ruined the country...
White House physician is reporting that Trump could be released from hospital as early as Monday. Let’s see if that is true.
Three possible outcomes could happen from this ordeal:
1). Nothing. Trump recovers and moves on as before.
2). Trump finally decides to take Coronavirus seriously, and directs more Federal efforts towards containing the virus.
3). Trump uses this ordeal to future blame China, and enact more drastic actions against China.

So many mainstream media outlets media here in Taiwan have been airing this anti-Chinese news non-stop yesterday. I originally saw this on TV when I ate out during dinner. So here's the online version:
蔡英文VS習近平！兩岸表彰抗疫英雄身段大不同 網友：蔡滿懷感激、習是奴隸的主子
近日推特等社群網路上瘋傳兩張照片，被認為充分反映民主台灣和中共獨裁體制的差異。 歐洲希望之聲指，兩照片同是表揚抗疫前線的醫護相關人員，但在台灣，受表彰的醫護人 員挺直腰、抬起頭，在台上邁步，由總統蔡英文逐一向他們致以深深的鞠躬，展現「民為 貴，社稷次之，君為輕」的民本主義精神；而在中國，受獎者表現恭恭敬敬向中國領導人 習近平90度鞠躬，雙眼還不能直視對方，生怕有所冒犯，完全呈現出「君與臣」、「主子 與奴才」的傳統父權宗法主義文化。 歐洲希望之聲報導，這兩張照片所展現的巨大差異，近來引起許有網友的熱議。有人點出 ：「一邊滿懷謙卑感激；一邊滿臉居高臨下。一邊是感恩；一邊是恩賜。高下立見。」也 有網友表示：「一個是你決定她的命運；一個是他決定你的命運」。 有網友說得更白：「台灣總統向醫生鞠躬致敬；中國領導人以王者姿態授勳！」、「一邊 是民選的領導人，一邊是對草民毫無義務的皇帝，沒有可比性」、「很明顯一位是人民的 公僕，一個是奴隸的主子」。 照片中，中國這場「抗擊新冠肺炎疫情表彰大會」，在上月8日於北京人民大會堂舉行。 由習近平向鍾南山等4人授予國家勳章和國家榮譽稱號。另外，一千多名在抗擊疫情中作 出貢獻的個人及團體，則由多位領導人向他們頒發獎狀。 而台灣的「武漢肺炎防疫紀錄片首映暨防疫獎章授獎典禮」，則在上月27日於台北圓山大 飯店舉行，由蔡英文親自頒發「防疫獎章」予全台44位對防治武漢肺炎工作卓有貢獻的個人與團體代表。

Tsai vs Xi: Netizens agree that while Tsai is filled with humble gratitude, Xi acts like a ruthless master over slaves
Recently two photos have gone viral on Twitter, and most people agree that the photos expose the vast difference between the democratic Tsai administration of Taiwan and the totalitarian communist Xi regime of China. Radio Free Europe has pointed out that while both photos show Xi and Tsai thanking the medical personnel who worked on front lines. In Taiwan the recipients could stride with their backs straight, heads held high and with great confidence. President Tsai would humbly bow to them, showing that she is a humanist that believes "people comes first, then the country, last the leader"(originally a quote from Confucius). Meanwhile in China it was the recipients who would bow 90 degrees subserviently to Xi instead. They are also intimidated to not look at Xi in the eyes for great fear that they will offend him.
Okay so the rest is translated by Google with corrections made by me:
This fully presents Xi's authoritarian practice of "king/ruler and serf/peon" and "master and slave". Radio Free Europe reported that the huge difference between the two photos has recently aroused heated discussion among netizens. Someone pointed out: "One side is humble and grateful; the other side is condescending. One side is grateful; the other side is arrogant. It's very easy to see which side is better." Some netizens said, "One is the you decide her destiny; the other is he decides your destiny." Some netizens put it more plainly: "The president of Taiwan bows to the doctors; the Chinese leader treats them with the attitude of a dictatorial king.", "On the one hand is the elected leader, on the other is the emperor who has no obligation to the people. There is no comparison.", " Obviously one is the public servant of the people and the other is the master of slaves." In the photo, China’s "Award Ceremony for Contributions against the Coronavirus" was held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on the 8th of last month. Xi Jinping awarded Zhong Nanshan and other four people a national medal and a national honorary title. In addition, more than 1,000 individuals and groups who have made contributions to the fight against the epidemic were awarded certificates by communist regime officials. Taiwan’s "Wuhan Virus Documentary Film Premiere and Award Ceremony" was held at the Grand Hotel in Taipei on the 27th of last month. President Tsai personally presented the "Epidemic Prevention Medal" to 44 individuals and organizations across Taiwan who have worked on the prevention and treatment of the Wuhan Virus.
BTW here's the photo that they're talking about:
But wait this isn't the end yet. Someone found out that here's something strange with the report. Here's the site with the original video:

How is this "World News"?
Given that it quotes anti-China / anti-Russia propaganda outlets like Free Radio Europe, you can pretty much write this off.
The point is that if you really watch the video, you can see that only one person bowed to Xi instead of all of them unlike what the report said. What's more it was he who bowed to Xi out of his own free will instead of being forced to do so unlike what the report said. They weren't also intimidated not to look at Xi in the eyes. They only lowered heir heads so that Xi could put the medal onto them. In fact if you watch closely Xi would also return them with slight nods (he also returned a handshake and saluted back to the officer) after he gives them the medal.
Plus this "news" was all over our TV, newspaper and social media here in Taiwan yesterday. Hell even some of my social media friends send me this piece of "news" over Facebook. I even fell for it initially given that there were photos. That's why I searched for the original video online.

My reaction is why no US organization ever asked me about my views about US & it's allies. Also why these organizations stick to traditional lackeys while doing "survey "?
Minus South Korea & Germany I am surprised that other's aren't close to 100%.
