“English ex-pat David Richards, 24, lives near the beach in Dalian in North East China. He contrasts the civility of life there with the decadence of Brighton Beach and English life in general.
by David Richards
(henrymakow.com)Two cities I have visited, Brighton in England and Dalian in China, possess beaches that are startlingly similar. Yet the behavior by each set of holiday-goers couldn’t be more different.
Dalian beach is a wholesome environment where families relax and elderly people do Tai Chi. Brighton beach is a scene of vice and depravity, hosting drug-fuelled raves and gay sex.
I currently live in Dalian, a prosperous coastal city in North Eastern China. The city has many beaches to cater for wealthy Chinese holiday-goers.
One particular beach is very reminiscent of a traditional English seaside holiday. There is a fairground with a rickety Ferris wheel, bumper cars and arcade games. There are stalls selling candyfloss and ice cream. Extended families play card games under parasols and children play in rock pools.
The beach is also pebbled and has a pier; characteristics that make it look virtually identical to Brighton beach. The similarity ends there…”
