True. But they need to get around and most couldn't afford cars. Also to ban smoking would create an uproar as to smokers, cigarette smoking is a sort of relaxation. IMHO. At least they ban smoking in restaurants and public transportation.
@yonight6871 21 күн бұрын
Marijuana has been legalized in Canada, and teenagers can buy marijuana. This is terrible. Young people without self-control are prone to committing crimes for the sake of drugs. Therefore, smoking is not a very objectionable behavior in China, as long as you do not smoke in public places.

I am a Chinese living in Vancouver Canada for 44 years from rural Guangzhou near the Baiyun International Airport. Yes, it is a good life. Love to go back and visit my relatives in cooler seasons. The summer there is too hot to bear which I don't like. The disadvantage of living in China is there is no old age pension for non perfessional occupations like if you live in western countries.

Then on top of that you need to tip. Here I can get a pint of carlsberg or asahi for 5-6$ and that’s the final price.
