China has disappointed me. I was expecting to meet rude people, see people digging their own ditches to take a crap, animal cadavres lining the streets (marinated or non marinated). Shanghai is very very cosmopolitan. People from all over the world are here, most of them for work. Most of the chinks here are nice too, except the taxi drivers. Those are an angry lot. They honk for no reason and for every reason. BEEEP!!!!
Shanghai is very clean too. This is how they clean their walls. I guess if labour in Malaysia is cheaper, we'd be able to afford men cleaning walls with the smallest of brushes.
Over here, the skyline is dominated by skyscrapers that rival Hong Kong's. Let me put it this way, the tallest building in Asia is now in Shanghai...but I don't know which is it because everywhere I look, the buildings are so gigantic and tall it makes me feel small. Then again, I'm walking amonsgt 17 million people. No wonder I feel so small.
I will blog more when I get back to Kuching. Oh yes, the Chinese officials at the airport doesn't do nuts. Show them your passport and they'll stamp it and wave you through impatiently. I managed to smuggle some greens over too. YEAY!
