While dining with our co-workers this afternoon for lunch I learned a few interesting insights on the Chinese culture. Did you know…?
A cutie!
1) About half of the Chinese women get a C-Section for various reasons.
- Pressure from doctors
- Fear of a complication
- Stress from the one-child policy
You can learn more about this issue at the link below:
2) The Black Plague still exist in some animals in China. When I heard of this I went straight home and did some research. Yes some rodents and small animals can carry this but it shouldn’t be something to concern me. Actually I read that the bubonic plague is in my own backyard; there are some cases in Northern Arizona.
3) The smoking capital of the world is China and that the second-hand smoke here kills about 10,000 innocent people a year. A co-worker’s grandma has lung cancer because of second hand smoke from living in China. Please pray for her.
