What's new

I can answer questions about China and help you understand our country

Does China have a cricket team and is there any interest in China regarding creating its own national cricket league? Given China's size and economy, this will be first mega league ever that touch annual revenue running into the billions and attract talent from all across China and the rest of the world.

Shanghai Jiaotong University of China has a cricket team. They will represent China in the 2022 Asian Games. However, these athletes only came into contact with cricket for the first time in September 2019, with an average age of less than 18 years. I hope they don't lose too badly.
ok, can anyone say “winnie” in mainland?
Sure. Plz read 429# to 437# reply.

If they make their mark in the Asian games then China can guarantee its spot in the intl cricket. They should start training on the PSL with Pakistani players or in the Pakistani under 19 league. I know Chinese people since I've been working with them. They will either NOT take on a challenge or they will master that challenge...no 3rd option in between.

Cricket is probably the slowest team sport in the world. The same goes to baseball.

baseball, yes. but thing about cricket is that it is unpredictable which keeps the audience on the edge. your tik tok'n the ball here and there for a few minutes and then BOOM, there are big sixers and fours outta the blue, or there can be big sixers and fours strong partnership and then a crazy psycho baller comes outta no where and starts claiming wickets. that's what makes the game so attractive, for the most part.

That probably has a lot to do with the rules, not much with the sport itself. In contrast, soccer is probably the most hard-working team sport. It is certainly more predictable than cricket but man, you really have to work for it.

Of course there are, but buying drugs isn't easy. It's not a crime to use drugs so no jail time, but drug addicts will be detained by police for upto 15 days, and then forced to join rehab centers. Drug trafficking on the other hand is a serious crime, trafficking 10-50g jail time 7-15 years, if more than 50g then life sentence or even death penalty.

Yes people of all ages drink alcohol, quite heavily in the north say Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang and such. People from the south drink less. Young people do play with drugs in nightlife venues, not too common in my opinion, but like I've mentioned getting drugs ain't easy at all.

Chinese law expressly stipulates that smuggling and trafficking more than 50g of heroin, or more than 50g of methamphetamine, or more than 1000g of opium, or more than 15kg of marijuana will be sentenced to death.
Because of the Opium War, the Chinese government and Chinese people had a low tolerance for drug crimes.

China has drugs, but it is difficult to buy drugs. Drug trafficking is a serious crime in China. China executes about 3000 death penalty prisoners every year, of which 50+% are drug trafficking crimes. On June 26 every year, all death penalty drug traffickers will be executed. So the drug dealers are so hidden that it's hard for you to find them. In China, drug addicts are detained for 15 days and given compulsory treatment for three months. Repeated drug abuse will be detained for 37 days and forced detoxification for 6 months. In China, 100000 to 300000 CNY ($16000 to $47000)will be awarded for reporting drug traffickers and 1000 CNY for reporting drug users. Even after successful detoxification, the criminal record of drug addicts is not allowed to be eliminated for life. When drug addicts enter other cities, hotels or important festivals, local public security personnel will do drug inspection.

BTW: Foreigners entering China must carefully check their belongings. Many foreign goods contain marijuana, which is illegal in China and may lead to your arrest when you get off the plane. There are drug dealers or your enemies hiding drugs in your luggage, which may even lead to your death sentence. In recent years, dozens of foreigners have been executed for drug trafficking. Americans, Britons, Canadians, Japanese, no govt can rescue drug traffickers from the Chinese govt.


Chinese people drink 7 litres per capita, 40% of them are beer and 60% are baijiu. In the WHO Global drinking ranking, Chinese people don't drink much, which is lower than the average level. There are many drinkers in northern China, and few drinkers in the south.
If they make their mark in the Asian games then China can guarantee its spot in the intl cricket. They should start training on the PSL with Pakistani players or in the Pakistani under 19 league. I know Chinese people since I've been working with them. They will either NOT take on a challenge or they will master that challenge...no 3rd option in between.
For the Chinese, this is a movement from zero. China needs Pakistan's help, otherwise the development of the sport will be very slow.

In the 1980s and 1990s, the Chinese were very poor, they usually used straw paper or newspapers to go to the toilet. These papers are easy to block the toilet, so many families will put a trash can next to the toilet to discard the used paper. After 2000, straw paper withdrew from the market, and Chinese people generally use biodegradable toilet paper. But many old people still have the habit of throwing toilet paper into the trash, and young people usually throw it directly into the toilet.

Okay. We accept you have done well. But all said and done your all kaffirs and all of you will go to hellfire. So my question when will you stop eating pork as it's haram and submit to Allah which will give you visa to heaven?

This life is transient. It matters nought. Accept Islam and be prosperous.

Plz forgive me, maybe I'm wrong.
I've always been sensitive to hidden emotions in communication, so I don't think you are a religious extremist, more like an extreme patriot.
I don't know what you want, but I feel you love Pakistan too much. Because of love, you feel angry and anxious. I hope you are calm and stable emotional, which is conducive to real thinking.
Are you afraid and worried about religious extremism?
