Today's Chinese are Living the American Manner

China is known to have a very meaningful culture and clear past, which are reflected in their traditions, arts, and customs. However, the Americans seem to overrun the Sleeping Giant through ruling the lifestyle of many Chinese. The surging economy of China has brought an elation for some people, but unfortunately to other Chinese, this is some kind of a threat to their culture.

In summer 2004, some have noticed that some Hummer H2 rolled over the main roadways of China. This big American 4x4 car was referred as summer's latest fashion because a lot of rich and influential people were driving such auto. In addition to this, analysts have remarked that the number of people who are packed with American lifestyle is doubling. Real log fires, huge bedrooms, American foods, and garments -- they are all outsetting to make up China. Many are alarmed with this craze, especially that the only people who can afford are those who are affluent and those who are in public offices. Some Chinese conclude that the money involved to afford such American lifestyle might came from corruptions and other forbidden acts.

I think it is vital for the China government officials to prove that "American lifestyle" is becoming more affordable for some Chinese because their economy is surging. I hope this is not another case of corruption or any forbidden works, otherwise it will be a real peril to China to have a rising number of private entrepreneurs -- people who never existed in China a decade ago.
