Herdsmen worship Chairman Mao

At what cost?

These kids eat ice out of the river and smile while doing so. Wealth does not lead to happiness as my fondest memories are usually of a time when I had nothing.

I hope that the unsustainable craze to get rich will not tear the land apart and turns to mud the stream with the ice.

Agreed.

At any cost, only through progress we could gain truth happiness which is the new knowledge, fond memories are precious but never the reason to choose stagnative content (under whatever pretty name). Human society must be in constant evolution, and there is no such thing as "unsustainable craze". it just means there is new way to be find for correction and improvement, but never fall back.

And your so sure the craze for wealth is the correct path forward?

I think that humanistic sociological change is the best way forward, which will in turn lead to better education, health and ultimately wealth and power.

A wealthy but corrupt and immoral society will implode from within and let the vultures of lesser countries invade.

Of this we have seen again and again in 5000 years of Chinese civilisation.

China's western mountain border area is still too poor, abject poverty , China's national strength and wealth refuses to reach those far off regions. Those kids drink water directly from a river in winter , heart wrenching to see.

All the wealth in this world cannot replace the simple , purity in their reverie ! I hope that they are able to maintain their way of life in conjunction with the onset of modernity. Let there be a healthy equilibrium .

China is trying to let these people out of poverty.It is absurd to your comments.Can you live in such an environment？(No water, no electricity, cold)

I love this one, it shows how our soldiers love our children.

Those are very old school people, they still have Chairman Mao 's portrait in many household. They still worship Mao like god.
