China is a developing country, albeit a very big one. Not too long ago, even now, many still have the impression that China is still a very poor country with poverty everywhere, slums, neglected old buildings about to fall into pieces and with poor Chinese peasants in green and grey Mao tunics and all with the hungry look of third world peasants.

China has produced a 6 part Bird's Eye view of China to show the new China that they have rebuilt over the last 40 years. When China embarked on this journey to transform itself into a modern industrial state, there were many records of how poor China was, how isolated, how remote the people were from the rest of the world. The peasants hardly see a car, a new hotel, restaurant, foreigners, unaware of the issues of the world like climate change, protecting the environment, protecting wildlife.  Their main concern was food and shelter, very primary and basic needs.

The 6 parts of this series show a China that the world has not seen, a very rich and well developed China, not just in economic development but about protecting their environment and wildlife all across the Chinese mainland. I thoroughly enjoyed a few quiet evenings watching these presentations about life, about living, in a mood of serenity and calm and peace. The narrative is in English by an American that spoke in a well measured tone and temperament that would bring the viewers to a world away from the stresses of a chaotic and unfriendly world. The series show what life is all about, living and enjoying the environment and the people, not wars, political bickering, threats, sanctions, regime change or hate and animosity. There are many aspects of life that are more meaningful and worth living for, beautiful and at peace with nature.

The series starts with a visit to Xinjiang Autonomous Region from the air, showing how beautiful and how well developed and choreographed, how much planning put in to turn the region into a paradise on earth. The subsequent parts spanned across China to Hainan Island, Heilongjiang, Shannxi, Jiangxi and concluding with Shanghai, the financial centre of new China and the world.

By the end of the series, I realised I was wrong to think that China was all about the eastern coastal region while the rest of China was still poor and underdeveloped, unplanned poverty and legacy of a past that is still living.  China has redeveloped and transformed the whole country to a modern and well developed state, organised and carefully planned. No more slums and dilapidated villages. The farmlands are a wonder to behold. It is a new China in every way.

Thanks to the CCP for reviving and rebuilding this ancient civilisation that is China today. Thanks to the CCP for driving away the foreign invaders and improve the lives of the Chinese people by leaps and bounds.  Thanks to the CCP that the Americans and the evil white men would not dare to take a hostile step into China, let a lone start a war with China.  Thanks to the CCP that the Chinese people are now scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, industrialists, billionaires etc etc and travelling the world with bags of money to throw around.

Maybe these are the reasons why the Americans and the whites are so angry with the CCP and badmouthing it everyday, trying to bring it down, instigating the Chinese to turn against the Party that brought prosperity and a better life to the Chinese people and generations to come, while the West wallowing in self pity and slipping into poverty and deprivation and bankruptcy for wasting their energy and resources and precious money in starting wars, fighting wars and building weapons and war machine.
