Ok,actually i am very concerned about this topic and i am a chinese. Because some of my foreigner friends tell me what did they think about China when they hadn't been here before. well,the impression from them were not so good but i can understand. but it's really good to know that they changed their thoughts about China and Chinese after they lived here.So i wanna know people no matter in China or haven't been here,what do you think of Chinese? Please.

Hey there....I have not been to China before but I my self am a Chinese and I eat Chinese food almost every day in my life and I love to eat Chinese food...hehehe!!! Well China seem to have quite a bad reputation now because of the milk in melamine scare and I have also receive emails from friends about fake food being produce in China like fake eggs, fake bamboo, fake oranges, fake anchovies. So I have also become cautious when I buy stuff made in China. But this does not mean all Chinese people are bad. I met a few Chinese friends from China through myLot and you are one of them...........oh and if I have a chance, woould I want to visit China, the answer is yes I most definitely would like to visit the Forbidden City in Beijing.

I think Eagle_f15 is an overseas Chinese and maybe he/she was born and brought up outside China. That's why he/she has never been to China. For example, there are lot of ABCs in Australia (ABC= Australian Born Chinese). And they still call themselves as a Chinese or Chinese Australian...I'm met many people with a Chinese face but couldn't speak a word of Chinese. They speak perfect English or German!Hope all these people one day can come and visit their mother land=)
