The life of the poor behind the streets of Chongqing, China.But you can find happiness here

It's a famous old street in Chongqing, China
A place where poor people gather

[stephenchan]

Builds are old but well kept with no garbage and no graffiti and homeless people. This is low income but not poor district. Compare to NYC, there are more poor and dirty areas. These videos are most effective against propaganda.

As born in Chongqing, I feel so familiar to these scenes. These places were not poor, but original residents have moved. People are now living in the old buildings are mostly from suburban area or country-side in extended chongqing area, I can tell from their accents. People are hard working to earn money, although it's hard.

I was just in China. I did see some poor neighborhoods too. It is so different from other countries. Even the most ghetto areas are extremely safe and the people are honest hard working. No drug dealing, no mugging, no violence. Just people living their daily life in peace.

I see people working, hanging out, eating. But no homeless bums begging for money, no trash everywhere and no drug heads. Just some humble people living a normal life with No unnecessary high class standards. 🎉 Very nice.😊

For a poor neighborhood, I noted the following, 1: Hardly any garbage and I do not see any garbage bins around. 2: So few smokers. 3. People leave you alone. 4: So safe. China certainly changed and improved a lot. Well done, China

They may not have all the money, but all people are living in harmony. I have been there, you can walk with no fear of getting robbed. These people are really friendly and helpful. Very honest people.

Being poor in China is very much different than being poor in other developing countries. Everything seems well organized and clean, despite the simplicity. You don't feel much tension going on (beyond people unconfortable with someone walking around and recording their privacy). Greetings from Brasil!

What an enchanting older section of the city. Nice, traditional vibe too. These people are not poor in anything of what counts in life. Their community looks like a very safe, peaceful and reasonably prosperous place to live. Most major American cities now lack the first two attributes.

i went to china to see family a few weeks ago and i am happy to see how clean china has become

What a fascinating little tour! Compared to late (& notorious) Kowloon City, the life here looks so peaceful & simple. I have a great respect & fondness for the Chinese people. They've done so well in my homeland far in the western Caribbean for 100+ years & it's a pity that the 'Made in China' stigma conjures negativity rather than praise for their incredible creativity, humility & talent...IMO

Un barrio chino que a pesar de su humildad tiene su encanto ... Saludos desde mi querida VENEZUELA

Pues pobreza como tal no es, es gente laborando que mantiene sus lugares ordenados y limpios.
Gente sencilla y trabajadora.

Si el vídeo es por descrédito a Chongqing, vaya a los suburbios de New York o Los Ángeles, ahí si van a ver pobreza, miseria y drogadiccion.
Saludos🇲🇽

Huge respect for Hardworking Chinese People.

I like China, my grandfather is of Chinese descent and he lives in Indonesia, I am his grandson who has Chinese blood. i love you China

[h.a.]

As my mom always said: "We can be poor, but that's no excuse for being dirty"

[kkssraja]

regardless of country, politics, religion ... as humans we are just all the same ... life has it ups and downs, positive and negatives..

[Rhummie]

I’ve been to ChongQing 3 times and you’ll feel much safer there than in any big US cities.

[mohdzainisalleh]

Being having over 1 billions population, its still considered much better as compared to other populous countries around the world. God bless u Chongqing and mainland of China...regards

The Streets are clean I don't see even a piece of trash. There are no homeless or baggers or crowds on streets. Every individual on street looks pretty healthy. They don't look to bother each other and street food vendors are well-managed with aprons dress.People look relaxed, no rushing like in New York City.That’s all we need.
