Observations # 15

There are two classes of Chinese peoples. For the sake of simplification, let's designate them as Chinese-educated, people educated in Chinese-medium schools, and non-Chinese-educated, people educated in non-Chinese-medium schools.

Non-Chinese-educated people typically behave like urbanized city folk, people accustomed to high-tech gadgets, fancy cars, fashionable wear and so on.

Chinese-educated people typically behave like uncivilized jungle tribes, people unaccustomed to high-tech gadgets, fancy cars, fashionable wear and so on but have a very strong desire to show to the whole world, everyone in sight or within earshot, that they too are capable of owning high-tech gadgets, fancy cars, fashionable wear and so on like everyone else.
