East vs West still? That simple
Heard a conversation between a student from mainland studying overseas and a tourist from mainland. They said people from 'west' are more self centered . Western always say what they want and Chinese always ask what 'you' want. Say in a dinner setting, Chinese always ask what guests want to eat first. As a person who lives in Hk, there is no East vs West mindset, we enjoy both values. We speak up our wants and take care other fellows. Of course some still stick to utilitarian familism but many surpass it through the current movement.
