Do you want to know something about China?

Exactly, we couldn't know about a country only by some words. In history, Philippines and China had very good relations. One Philippines King had come to visit China and dad in China, his secondly son had lived in China from then on.

@josie_ Yes, you know a lot of Chinese history, the descendants of Sultan now live Shandong Province of China, and now they are regard as Han people.

Thank you, my friend, your question is a very big topics, because China has more than 5000 years' history, and she has a lot of traditions. There are a lot of Chinese in Philippines

@MattMeng _ Yes there are many Chinese in the Philippines. I married one.

@josie_ Oh, very glad to meet you, you are a Chinese wife. Which language does your husband use? Chinese or English?

The unfortunate answer to that is, yes - they eat absolutely everything that moves!

Some people in some places of China like to eat dogs, but most of Chinese don't eat.

@veganbliss Only a few people do this, not all.

@MattMeng Yes, I am Chinese too ..and Spanish as well .. with Malay .. I am mixed ... Those places you mentioned are indeed beautiful places to visit ..I would be in awe to see the Imperial Palace..

@epiffanie Very glad to meet Chinese from Spanish. The Imperial Palace is a great gift leaved by our ancestors.

I'm so glad to meet you, my friend, in fact you are a Chinese too. There are so many beautiful places in China. One can't visit all of them even in his/her lives. Most people want to visit the Great Wall and the Imperial Palace in Beijing, the West Lake in Hangzhou, terra cotta army in Xi'an, etc.

Now I'm 34 years old now, when I was a child, my parents should pay for my education from primary school to university, and our government paid the cost of my postgraduate education. Several years have past, now the Chinese government pays 9 years education of every child from primary school to junior middle school. Now every Chinese has health care, but different people have different health care.

@jaboUK Yes, but there are still many children leave school very young, because their parents want them to earn money and their parents think it is no use to go to school.

@MattMeng Thank you for the explanation. I'm glad that the education nowadays is not so expensive, and that you all have health care.

@RubyHawk Yes, it is rather expensive, and many people can't afford it.

Oh, I hope you could take some travels to China and other countries.

@MattMeng I would love it but i can't afford a trip so far.

I like some music made by zither or Chinese lute or guitar, such as "High mountains and Running water", "Second Spring Bathed in Moonlight", etc.

@MattMeng Yes,I came across music made by Chinese lute,and I liked that.Thanks for the suggestion.

@MattMeng Lots of research types. Those are not the same.

@Vjvals Yes, everyone has his/her own stories. Have you ever been to China?

Which stories have you ever read?

Really, you have been in China? Which city were you come?

@crazyhorseladycx Exactly.

@MattMeng no, sadly i've ne'er been - jest read what t'was available back'n school...which t'was a really long time 'go, lol. i've seen pics/videos since then though. i find't most fascinatin' to 've such a rich cultural history fer so many centuries. but, i confess to my greatest passion bein' to see what mother nature 's gifted y'all with :)

Exactly, there are some people living the caves in some places of China, we call it "yaodong", but now most people move to the commodity house. But there are still some old people living in caves because they have adapted this kind of life. If we want to get a government job, we should take an exam at first and pass it. The retirement age of a common government employee is that: for male, 60years old, and for female, it is 55years old.

Thank you very much, my friend, hope you could come to visit China.

We learn Chinese when we began speaking, and Chinese is our mother language, so we won't feel it difficult

@Ritu96 Perhaps Chinese is more difficult than other languages.

@MattMeng oh yes.bt it is difficult for others

You people and our Chinese are brothers and friends, our great leader Chairman Mao said.

In the north of our country, people mainly eat food made by wheat powder, and in the south, people mostly eat rice.

It is an old tradition that it is better to marry with Chinese people, but now more and more people marry with other people, it's nothing serious.
