As more and more Chinese go travelling abroad, reports about their bad manners flood in.
Some Chinese talk loudly and push in. Some even spit everywhere.
The poor behavior of some Chinese has done great harm to our country.
I think it's time for us to do something about it. So before you go abroad next time , try to learn about the culture and people there.
You will have a better experience and win respect for yourself as well as your country.
Let’s write!
What bad manners do we have
What should we do to change the situation
If everyone has perfect manners,
we will live in a harmonious society .
