This move is to allow citizens of those countries given visa free travel to visit China and to give them an opportunity to savor the real China, the China not according to the MSM that had been poisoning the minds of people around the world. This is a very strategic move that China had been making since hosting the Olympic Games in 2008, when visitors were given a taste of what China was like then. More than 20 years have passed and now China is even more developed, prosperous and knows that the Western MSM can do nothing to put China in a bad light anymore.
What can visitors expect to find out about China when visiting? First and foremost, will undoubtedly be the much-touted high-speed railways. No country has managed to build such a widespread rail system at such speed. Visitors will also get to have a taste of the cheap cost of living in China, the cheap consumer products and the hospitality of the Chinese, as some foreign visitors have already experienced. What these foreign nationals reported on social media have been cast as players paid by the CCP, so China is letting them in to see with their own eyes, visa free.
It is not hard to imagine why China is not extending such visa free travel to the Axis of Evil. Even if the truth is out there, they will distort and twist the truth in favor of the lies. So, China is just doing the right thing not to allow such fabricators of lies to distort the reality.

The floodgates to counter Western propaganda have been thrown wide open, with China opening up its doors to more foreign travelers, albeit some with ulterior motives, wanting to see if they could find something to justify the claims by the Western MSM over the years. Xinjiang was a place that many in the West wanted to see, to find the concentration camps that never existed. Instead, they saw what an outlying Xinjiang Capital is like with beautiful buildings, clean roads, high speed railways serving the community, different races existing peacefully without the radicals cultivated by the CIA trying to stir up trouble.
ReplyDeleteGo and see with your own eyes is what many well-known economist and analysts have been saying. China is reaping benefits from such opening up benefiting hotels, transportation facilities, food and beverage outlets and exposing the real China that is different from what some foreigners had expected with their pre-conditioned mindset clouded by decades of brainwashing.
Yet, a more useful counter comes from Rednote, a result of actions by the USA against Tik Tok that backfired spectacularly. They may claim Rednote is just a distraction, as always, just like BRICS and de-dollarization. Rednote, a relatively unknown app quietly exposed most of the lies generated by the Western MSM about China - the stifling moves by the CCP, the evil regime that lifted more than 800 million Chinese out of poverty and still seeking ways to improve the lives of the Chinese, the low cost of living, the cheap housing and availability, the cheap university education giving Western universities a run for their money that cost a fraction of what USA universities were charging, though not lower in quality today. The demolition of the misinformation and disinformation generated by the US$300 million a year propaganda machine just took mere weeks without China having to spend penny. Best of all, USA citizens do not even have to travel to China to know the truth, just by interacting with Chinese citizens on the app. Oh, please do not again tell us that those Chinese Rednote users are paid by the CCP.
