“Heaven is to the left, Guangdong is to the right.” I think there is an old saying like that…
In Zhejiang as well, though, I saw an old woman who had just been hit by a car while she was riding her bike. She was laying in the street crying, with a little blood coming down from her forehead. Nobody really did anything to intervene, and just a few people watched. Eventually an ambulance came by, but people seemed more or less unconcerned by the whole thing. I’m not sure if they were afraid to help, or if they just thought it had nothing to do with them? A number of such cases have been big news items in the last few years.
