CULTURAL ETIQUETTE, IDIOSYNCRASIES AND 12 VIRTUES OF HARMONY RENAISSANCE
Jim,
I have feelings for both Chinese and Americans so I tend to forgive the differences in cultural etiquette differences and idiosyncrasies. I agree with you the Chinese current disrespect for waiting in lines needs to be corrected by public education. After all people in Singapore, Hong Kong and old Shanghai wait in lines and they are all Chinese. What is happening now is very annoying. I wonder the Red Guard disorder has any thing to do with Shanghai do not respect lines now. When I was young I went from Shanghai to Hong Kong 1951, I found people in Hong Kong are uneducated and unruly but on my return during 1980s I found HK has changed for the better.
My mother was a very capable Shanghai lady. When I was young my family members including my father all deferred to my mother. In return my mother took very good care of us. When I came to America during 1950s I could not understand the disrespect youngsters show to their mother. Now I understand the tradition and upbringing is very different. Even today Shanghai men are known to defer to their wives. That is not necessarily practiced in other parts of the world. So cultural differences do exist.
I hope the 12 virtues of Harmony Renaissance. TOLERANCE, ACCEPTANCE, RESPECT, KINDNESS, FORGIVENESS, HUMILITY, GENTLENESS, PATIENCE, EQUITY, NONVIOLENCE, GREEN ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION (See Attached 12 Harmony Virtues animation announcement) can be taught by public education to make people more aware There are U.S. and Chinese grade schools that are teaching virtues to school children with positive results. I wonder to the same degree public education can make nations more aware of Harmony Diplomacy and consensus politics instead of confrontational diplomacy and politics. Confrontation rather than consultation do lead to disharmony that may leave undesirable feelings that are not conducive to world harmony. It may not be as hard as one may think to reach Harmony Renaissance virtues. Look at the success in Singapore. Although some may think Singapore has overdone their public education. However, harmony balance is subject to each individual societal acceptance not for others to judge. As long as world citizens accept certain common standards according to the spirit of Harmony. What do you think?
