Made in China

Nowadays, most products are made in China. However, I think the products will be manufactured in other country such as Vietnam and Malaysia.

First, manufacturing brings pollution. As the communication technology becomes more advance, the problems of pollution cannot be ignored in China. The local government in Shenzheng is taking more serious measures to reduce pollution. However, the government in Vietnam seems less concern about environment. The manufacturers spend less in preventing pollution in Vietnam, so the factories swift to Vietnam.

Second, the manufacturing cost in China is increasing. People in China are more concerning about labour right. There are increasing minimum wage in China which increase the cost. Moreover, as China is developing other business such as IT and finance, the factory owners need to increase wages to employ workers. On the other hand, the wage in less-developed country is still very low.

Last, the American like to blame on others for causing unemployment problem in America. There are many places in the world where the salary and production cost are much lower than that in America. Moreover, American has no special skills like German or Japan. However, they do like to blame on others for election. In the past, they blames Japanese. They change to blame China now. American tries their best to push up the value ob RMB. If the production cost in China is increased, the factories will shift out of China (but not shift to America).

Exercise and health

Nowadays, the public emphasis exercise, especially aerobic exercise, can make us healthier. Exercise should be good to health, but I think exercise should be treated carefully or exercise is not good for health.

First, it is common to be injured due to exercise. It is very common to hear that some famous football player or basketball player are injured and cannot play in that season. Some injury cannot be totally recovered. The Athlete may feel painful when they get old and on a rainy day. Injury certainly violate the standard of being healthy. Moreover, there is even a research claims that chlorine in swimming pool may cause cancer.

Second, the performance of exercise are based on physical and biological rules, but not way to make us healthy. For those who play sports, they usually not only want to be healthy, but also want to win in a competition. For example, the pose of fencing seems not natural as they need to turn their head and walk like a crap. For track and field, athlete need to follow exactly what the performance required and train for a specific muscle.

I am not saying that we should not exercise, but we need to exercise in the safe way and choose the exercise that do not harm our health.

What do you really need?

Just looking at the people living in country side, their lives are simple but not meaningless. They do not need high-tech products nor beautiful clothes. However, they are happy and even happier than citizens. In well-developed society, people are not afraid to be starved to dead. So, what do we need?

I think building relationships with others, eat enough food, having some interest in live are enough as those desire are built in our DNA to push us survival. Earning money is also a basic desire, but the cost is high in modern society. In a large company, employee needs to play drama and take care of other's drama to fight for better income or just keep the existing job. And people may not be so competitive in the society, they may not have any achievement and have disappointment instead. I think building happiness on achievement often brought sadness and is not reliable source of happiness.

So, what do you really need?

Is Blog outdated?

Nowadays, both Facebook and mobile broadband become popular. I think that the future of Blogger may not be bright.

In Facebook, one could share and have interactions with friends more easily. If I need to share photo with friends, Facebook is a better choice than Blogger. "Note" in the Facebook could be used as dairy like Blogger. People may not want to log-in to different websites to share nor reading friends sharing.

Another threat to Blogger is mobile broadband. As people could write share their feeling using mobile phone like Iphone or Android and using mobile phone to input data is not so convenient, they prefer writing something short just like Twitter. They seems not to use computer again to share in Blogger.

Last but not least, it seems too difficult to be distinguish among the blog website. Wordpress, Xanga and Yahoo! Blog are also popular. Any company could set up a similar blog hosting like Blogger. A little more functions seems not so important. Moreover, Blogger aims at English environment and lack of localization. For those whose mother language are not Engish, they may not prefer Blogger.

Values

Many philosophy, religion and life coaching course emphasis that feeling is based on values, and values are created by myself. Therefore, we need not feel sad nor other negative feeling. However, as what I have observed, our feeling is not totally "artificial".

Human are born to live in wild. Feelings are used to push human beings to cooperate, reproduction, avoid dangerous and fight for food. Therefore, human beings like to be recognized by others, having sex, help each other, earning money and take care of baby. On the other hand, human being dislike to lose money, be lonely, hate by other, etc.

Buddhists have tried to eliminate all their desire but they failed. Christians try to follow all the rules and teaching in the Bible but it seems that very few of them could follow all the rules. Many people joining life coaching courses but they change back to their original personality. Therefore, I don't think that feeling are artificial.

I think the way to feel happy is to think that the feeling comes from natural which originally used for live and reproduction. After that, try to live naturally. Helping others, finding lovers, earning money and finding something fun could help.

Modern Marriage

Marriage is not only the result of love, but also the result of social income and reproduction.

I think human beings are designed to live in the wild and try their best for food and reproduction, just like other animals. Having marriage to limit the natural desire on other woman is not natural. However, human beings concern about marriage in order to gain benefit.

In the past, woman had less income than man. Therefore, the livelihood of woman could be more secure by marrying to a man. And the society had less support to the poor. The children grew better with both a father and mother. Therefore, marriage did have its function.

Nowadays, woman can have more income than man. Couples may not give birth to baby. Children could be brought up with single mother or single father. Therefore, marriage seems not so suitable to modern society. No doubt about the devoice rate is increasing.
