October 26 The Student should Be RespectedOn October 20th, in Yunan Shuanglong Center Primary School, three first grade kids have been punished to take off all their clothes and stand in front of the whole class, because they didn't bring their own clean tools to clean the classroom as the teacher requested. After it happened, these three kids are very depressed and afraid to go to school. Although the teacher had apologize to the students and their parents, but her insulting behavior didn't be forgave by them.
On October 23th, the Bureau of Education withdrew her qualification as a teacher. She can not teach in any school or participate in any teaching activity form now on. The Bureau of Education also requested her to go to the students' home and apologize. The schoolmaster went to apologize to the students as well, and arranged a new teacher for this class. The class finally went back to normal.
Teacher plays a significant role in the society. The quality of teacher determines the quality of education. A quality education determines the future of the nation. Teachers have such a great duty of cultivating and teaching students, therefore, they should first set up good moral examples. What this teacher has done gives extremely bad impact to the students. Even when students made mistakes, their dignity should be respected. The Rumor about AIDS Is Scarier than AIDS ItselfOn October 12th, A girl called Yan Deli posted a passage on her blog says she is suffering from AIDS, and has already had sex with 279 guys. She posted their phone numbers as well. After the investigation, it shows that Yan doesn't have AIDS, and her ex-boyfriend is a prime suspect in this libel case.
Yan Deli's bolg shaked society. At the same time, she and her family suffered massive pressure from the public opinions. After the police claimed that they have already arrested the suspect, the truth finally came out. Yan's ex-boyfriend said he loves Yan very much. After Yan broke up with him, he wants to attack her reputation, and causes her has no choice but stay around him.
The poice spokeman said Yan's ex-boyfriend fabricated facts to slander Yan's reputation, which caused tremendous psychological harm to Yan, and also caused extremely bad social impact. Based on the evidence the police have got, they will severely punish him according to the law.
But nothing can really heal the girl's wound from this incident. It also bring us another issue that the spread of rumors like "AIDS Girl" is more scary than AIDS itself. We have measures to prevent AIDS, but what can we do to prevent the spread of rumors on internet? We rely on the power of internet in modern society, at the same time, it can easily be used to achieve someone's immoral or even illegal purpose, too. October 25 Slave Labor, Not just in Remote PlaceIt is never new for us to see some children have been trained to make money by begging, working in some factories day and night, or even by committing a crime. Some of them come out to work because of the financial burden of the family, while most of them have been abducted by the trader in human beings, and have been forced to work by their "owner".
Everyone knows the country severely cracks down on the illegal act of employing of children for the laber. Yet the "baby faces" never disappear from the factories where are not belong to them at all. There is no actual numbers showing how many children are working, that child labor makes up about 20% of the work force in China. The factories prefer children because they work for very low wages, are easily intimidated and able to fit in small work spaces..
Lots of children work for 12 to 18 hours a day, eat bad, and stay in awful work places. Some of them even work in very dangerous place like the coal bit.They have no security for their health, and even their lives..
Some may think the slaves lives only in far remote ancient times, actually they are still exist here, down the corner in our society, in our times, with the face of angel.
We owe them a health and happy childhood, a future, and essentially, the right to live as a free man. October 19 It's Easier for a Dog to Get a Beijing HukouI'd like to talk about the Chinese household registration, which is known as "Hukou".
Hukou is a red book or a piece of paper which says an individual's basic info. It gives an individual the legal right to live a city and receive coinciding social benefits including medical treatment, social welfare, housing, children's education, house, car purchase and even applying for a driver's license..
The household registration system divides the population into "agriculture" and "unban" sectors. It has imposed strict limits on ordinary Chinese citizen changing their permanent place of residence. Without a city hukou, life is difficult. Non-local graduates are discriminated against because of hukou when hunting for jobs, as most employers are unable to give them a hukou.
I am not a Beijinger. So I need to apply a temporary residence permit if I want to work and live in Beijing, like a foreigner does. When I was looking for a job here, I noticed that a lot want ad says "people with a local hukou only". I am not sure if Beijingers are truely smarter than people form other cities. But I know it is much easier for a local student to get into university than students from other cities, too.
Anyway, under these circumstances, people who are not locals have less and less jobs to choose from. It is even more difficult for females as we are often discriminated against also because of our gender. Many of my friends choose to go back to hometown even though the work environment is not as vibrant and competitive there. Meanwhile, some people are trying hard to get a Beijing hukou Which is like trying to get "green card". It just sounds sad to me..
I remember a friend told me that, "My dog is a Beijinger. I am not." October 17 A Story around UsFive years ago, I interviewed a man. This guy brought a bottle of water on the train, which costs 1.5 yuan. And then he asked fapiao for the cost from the train attendant. The train attendant laughed and said: “There is no fapiao for the cost on the train ever.” The guy sent the Ministry of Railway to the court afterwards. He said people always choose to accept when they are facing strong and powerful rules. But if we give up the right to ask fapiao for 1.5 yuan today, tomorrow we may have to give up the landright, property rights, and even the right to live… If we don't fight for our rights, these rights will just be a piece of paper. He won the case at last. I thought him and the Ministry of Railway will be two from now on. However, when next time he ate in the restaurant car on the train, the chief conductor deliver his food in person, and asked him if he wants the fapiao right away or after meal. I asked him, how you win the respect? “By the perseverance to fight for my rights.” He said. His name is Hao Jinsong, a 34 years old lawyer.
I heard the story from a journalist in her speech competition yesterday. I appreciate Hao Jinsong’s courage to go against the powerful government branch for his legal right. And I also appreciate the journalist’s work to record the small but powerful stories like this and broadcast them. A nation consist of different idividuals. They create and define the nation. Only if a nation have the people who has independent thinking, who strives for the truth, who filghts for their constitutioanal right, who knows the world is not perfect but never gives up trying, the nation can have its future, a better one.
Ps: Fapiao is an official receipt. It used for calculating the in-comes, so that the government would know how much that one earns, and then easy for tax. October 16 Take a Look on the Spicy TeacherOne of my classmates from the university becomes very famous recently. Her name is Deng Rui. A 24 years old lovely girl who works in a primary school in Chengdu at the moment. She was in the CCTV news this week as a "spicy teacher" because her great personality and the way she gets along with her student.
Chinese people values teacher a lot. In tradition point of view, study is a very serious issue. Teachers should be erudites and strict, and students should never challenge the teachers' authority.
Well, it has been changing as China has been absorbing western culture since the "Reforming and Open-up policy" has been carried on in 1978. The easy and facetious western culture has rocked the old stiff Chinese world. My generation, the people who were born in 1980's, was growing up in the new colorful world.
We got to know that teachers are not always right. We'd love to challenge the authority in studying times. We were famous for beyond the control, and we even have been considered as the lost generation by the educationist..
Apparently, we bring the "new world" to the class when we grew up and become a teacher ourselves.
Deng Rui represents the tipical characteristic of this generation.
She would sing to the student that "you're still in my eyes", when he was afraid to look at her in the eye because he has been found that he was stealthily doing something in the class.
When the student makes a lot of mistakes in the homework, she will tell him that he is not match with his "NIKE" shirt---NIKE's logo is a "√". "I will buy you a "Xecp" shirt, whose logo is a "×", if most your answers are wrong..
When there are students talking in class, she will make a miserable face and tell them:" How can you be so cold-hearted to left me teach the lesson alone? You made my heart broken into pieces." ……
Children love her because they feel like she is a real person in their life, but not just some kind of saint who will never make mistakes, or tell jokes.. And she will never give students any kind of corporal pinishment for their improper behavior.
I am proud of her. Not just because the fame she has got, but also what she has been doing is something.
Wish her good luck in the future. |
