Only this country is an exception!, China is releasing goodwill to the world. China | the world | goodwill

My first impression upon seeing this list is:

1. This is China's release of goodwill and open goodwill to the world;

2. Some of the amplitude is really unexpected, it can be said that good is good for bad;

3. Hehe, but there is also an important country exception.

What list?

The third batch of outbound team tours recently released by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism has added nearly 80 countries and regions.

Adding the first batch of 20 countries and the second batch of 40 countries announced in January this year, the total of the three batches is 138 countries and regions.

It can be said that it covers all important countries and regions in the world. Except for those who are particularly dangerous and cannot go, most of them are on this list.

What is this not about releasing goodwill to the world?

You should know that according to Western media, Chinese outbound travel is a "precious international commodity". It's simple, although I sometimes can't stand it, the fact is that Chinese tourists have a lot of silly money, coupled with a large number of people, their spending power is amazing.

According to data from the World Tourism Organization, in 2019 before the pandemic, the consumption of Chinese tourists was $255 billion, accounting for 20% of the total international tourism consumption. Before the epidemic, about 60% of the consumption of Chinese Mainland tourists abroad was for group tours.

So, with China's large-scale opening up, including the United States and the United Kingdom, many countries are celebrating the tourism industry, and Chinese people are coming again.

It's a bit unexpected, and this is also my genuine feeling.

You can carefully look at these three lists. The first and second batches, many of which are friendly countries, but the third batch is very complex.

For example, Japan and South Korea are also on the list.

Everyone is well aware of the recent attitude of Japan and South Korea towards China. Especially in Japan, the measures taken on the issue of nuclear wastewater have angered neighboring countries. But even so, China is still very generous, and Chinese tourists can participate in tours to Japan and South Korea.

What is this not about repaying kindness with resentment?

Additionally, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia from Europe are also on the list.

Especially Lithuania, there have been so many small actions against China that have had a negative impact, but at least in terms of tourism, we are not to blame. Chinese tourists, you can go.

What is this not about repaying kindness with resentment?

Also, the United States and Australia are on the list. There is no need for further explanation.

What is this not about repaying kindness with resentment?

Additionally, there is India.

I remember not long ago, we were angry that India was blocking our Chinese journalists, and for various reasons they were not granted visas. Almost all Chinese journalists were forced to return home. In fact, India is also very tight on our Chinese tourist visas.

But when it comes to opening up tourist destinations, we have generously included India as well.

I believe we can do this, but you really can't do it in India.

What is this not about repaying kindness with resentment?

But what's interesting is that after the third batch of lists was announced, one country was in a hurry because all important countries were included, but it wasn't on the list.

Which country is it?

Read three words out loud: Canada Canada Canada.

Canada is very disappointed.

Looking at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, I complained that the Chinese government has given the green light to outbound teams from 138 countries and regions around the world, but has only excluded Canada, which will make the recovery of Canada's tourism industry even more difficult.

It should be noted that in 2019, during the pandemic, according to data from Tourism Canada, China was the largest source of tourists from the Asia Pacific region in Canada and the second largest long-distance market in Canada after the United Kingdom.

But now, the Canadian tourism industry is looking forward to the stars and the moon, but what they hope for is that Chinese team tourists can go to the United States or Mexico, but they will not come to Canada.

Why not come?

I see that the Chinese Embassy has explained to Canadian media in this way: Recently, the Canadian side has repeatedly played up the claim of "China interfering in Canada's internal affairs", rampant anti Asian discrimination is on the rise in Canada, and the Chinese government attaches great importance to protecting the safety and legitimate rights and interests of Chinese citizens overseas, hoping that they can travel in a safe and friendly environment.

Behind diplomatic rhetoric, it is actually quite simple.

1. Canada, reflect on yourself. Where was Meng Wanzhou arrested and why was he arrested?

2. Canada, you are always hyping up "China interfering in Canada's internal affairs". Will China interfere with you? That's too much.

3. In Canada, are you not taking the racial discrimination against Asians seriously in your country? How can Chinese people still come like this?

Finally, what do you think?

To be honest, there are big articles on the list. Looking at these three lists, the more I look at them, the more I feel happy. Of course, it's also a few happy families and a few sad families.

Roughly three points.

Firstly, Chinese people pay attention to the importance of repaying kindness with love.

So, everyone carefully looks at this list. Thailand, Indonesia, Cambodia in Asia, Egypt, Kenya, South Africa in Africa, Switzerland, Hungary, and New Zealand in the West are all in the first batch.

Friendly to China, China is even more heartfelt in its various forms of friendship.

Oh, in the first batch of lists, there is also the Philippines.

Philippines, Philippines, don't disappoint China's heart.

Secondly, Chinese people repay their grievances with virtue.

So many countries that are not very friendly to China, and even in recent years, countries that have taken many small actions against China and seriously damaged China's interests, this time we will make a big move and forget it.

At least in terms of tourism, let bygones be bygones and stick to one code.

I believe that this is not only a big country mentality, but also a confident and composed attitude, an open attitude.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, is a tradition among Westerners. We Chinese people are more particular about repaying our grievances with virtue. Although it may seem like we are at a disadvantage and sometimes we may feel suffocated, let us not forget the teachings of the sages: benevolence is invincible.

King's Way or Hegemony, Western countries are basically Hegemony. But I always feel that China's rise and rejuvenation are not hegemony, but kingship. This is the tradition of China, and it is also the ability to unite all those who can be united and create a more favorable development environment for China.

The world is undergoing a great change that has not been seen in a century. Faced with the current dangerous international environment, we have made more friends and fewer enemies. China's diplomacy needs to work harder and be more artistic.

Thirdly, there is also a sharpness in China's goodwill.

So, France's second batch and Germany's third batch.

So, without seeing Canada, Canada jumped even more urgently.

China, China, you have shown goodwill towards the world, only leaving Canada as a target.

But who should we target if we don't target Canada?

If Canada is not at the forefront of anti China sentiment and has not repeatedly seriously harmed China's interests, why is this so?

You should know that in the past, when we Chinese people talked about Canada, we would always think of Norman Bethune and a friendly country thousands of miles away. However, now, the cold relationship between China and Canada is so cold that it is truly heartbreaking.

Should Canada not seriously reflect and reflect?

Of course, if changed, he will still be a good comrade.

I believe that the relationship between China and Canada will eventually turn around, and I also hope to have the opportunity to visit Canada and have a look.
