“Many people are not like those people in the United States or Japan where they are spontaneously self-respecting. When you don’t have self-respect, the government will regulate. That is for certain.”
- Jackie Chan

Well said Jackie.

Jackie Chan says the Chinese need to be controlled.

Reality: he gets to enjoy the freedoms of being a Hong Kong citizen. If he was stuck in China, he’d be singing a different tune.

I think it is not right to compare the US or Canada to China in terms of people’s behavior and freedom. The North Americans have over 200 years to refine their freedom and behavior, while the Chinese have only 30 years. Is it a fair comparision?

There is absolutely nothing wrong in what Jacky Chan is saying but I may want to add a few more to it.

People needs to control their tongues if they speak to incite civil unrest, hatred, discrimination and lies.

Even in a free world like the US and Canada to name a few in the western world free speech does not give you the right to speak rubbish for there is such crimes as Hate Crime etc.

Being Chinese you need to understand the real world of free speech and dont jump to conclusion that you have every right to speak rubbish to incite hatred.

The Chinese has a lot to learn and I can fully support JC’s thoughts and since when he can not exercise a good comment. I do not see it as far being the truth.

We Chinese need to learn first and not just copy cat, which makes we Chinese so bloody fake.

JC and I have nothing in common but what he is saying is fine by me and it hurts those for it is true.

I am Chinese but so what? The truth is the truth and I am my father’s son, who taught me to be truthful yet not ashamed to be one.

We Chinese need to wake up!!!

Uh, yeah, I am. For a start, we actually have an exit plan for Iraq now (shouldn’t have even started in the first place, or we should at least be consistent and go for Burma too while Bush was at it).

Nobody in Hong Kong (Jackie’s own hood) likes him, that is because they know what kind of a person he really is, and now they have another reason to not like him more, he is getting too “pro” Beijing.

jamar,

are you honestly telling me right now that the barack obama’s government is ‘better’ than presiden’t bush’s government?

you’ve got to be kidding me. its the same old crap. they are all corrupt. it is no better. the only difference is that obama promises to help poor and indigent at the expense of the middle class. that is what got him into office… that and the fact that he is black. at least with GWB, you knew you were getting fucked… anddd companies were still hiring under GWB. Not anymore.

obama has done jackshit for anyone.

Uh, no. What I see is a cop-out. What China needs is a hard time. No criticism means no improvement. Look at all the crap piled on America for the Bush administration’s *ahem* missteps. Now we have a better government.

And really, you’re comparing treehuggers to traitors (yes, you said that- you said “traitors and running dogs” and then “treehuggers, activists, and imperialists” in the same context)? I want Earth to look better in 50 years, not worse.

Jackie Chan is a patriotic guy.

He is sick and tired of seeing all the traitors and running dogs giving China a hard time. With all the treehuggers, activists, imperialists jumping on the China bashing bandwagon, somebody has to stick up for the country.

Plus Jackie Chan can get a foothold with his movies, DVDs, merchandise.
