About Christmas in 3 continents

One thing is certain: this case happens often to nomads flying worldwide on airways home from Shanghai / China (PRC) or back again to the metropolitan city to land on Pudong’s airport PVG.

Already travelled to 175+ cities worldwide, tourists from Amsterdam-Schiphol, Dubai or Shanghai may ask you in then on the Bund during these busy days:
„How do Chinese people – some of them live overseas – do celebrate their Christmas feast / party?”

Firstly, then you have to think deeply, please!

How to explain the 1+X question(s)? These will never be easy to answer correctly…

Generally spoken you have to admit: the Christmas feast has never officially existed before in PRC.

But how could it come now into fashion there, too?

What makes Christmas a new fashion or trend?

If we regard these (shopping) days only as a fashionable event, we might see it only with the eyes of a marketing director, whose department who tend to trigger the bonuses paid at yearend.

So, hoping to attract more than 200.000+ and more Germans living in metropolitan cities like Shanghai, Shenzhen or Hong Kong SAR, the new consumption worlds go really crazy: buying luxury cars, etc.

This year however, the similar holiday season in the former traditional China follows quickly the German feasts “Weihnachten” and “Sylvester”; as a surprise, it is also quite close to the traditions in Africa as well.

Why Africa?

Networking friends there say: We sing Christmas carols and dramatize place in African churches. Furthermore, many feasts and family reunions are held, similar to new Chinese citizens living and working in an almost forgotten continent: Africa, we go, top!
Opposite to the European thoughts, Chinese TV stations focus on the cultural events such as frequently visited churches, filled with more religious believers than these may offer space to – queuing up, without public viewing.

Yoga Thoughts…

The Christians are told by their priests how they could go on the healthy good old traditional ways. They are given fresh ideas following a visionary path for the coming years. Another yoga trip with drum music…

Finally many festivals are held on the December 31, celebrating gospel music in cities like Nairobi (NBO) / located in Kenya.

There, one week later everybody goes back happy to work with a fresh and creative mentality to overcome the global crises telling: Happy New Year…

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Why China is losing its quality workers…

It happened in ancient towns around Chengdu…

Historical events reported Chengdu people as powerful…

It is still a secret: the best things of China are exported now to Japan…

And these are the conditions for healthy men…: not drinking and smoking… the monthly income of 7.000 RMB working 72 hours a week – food and hotel rooms are inclusive for in total three years, always two men as partners in one good hotel room…

They will see their families regularly three times a year again. Most of them are actually single.

Their flights will be paid, too. Japan’s electronic industry must hire cheap labour from China now due to its worsening demographic factor in Chibu.

According to some desktop internet research there seem to be living less than 50 people per square kilometer now. If one of these might fall in love, it is most likely that this Chinese worker will never come back.

The reasons seem to be more than obvious in these days full of smog and the polluted air in Beijing according to this critical statements. ‘The television program and especially the food is much better, the sky is clear, and the working conditions are much more improved, so that the chances for a real career in Japan are good there’, he shouts. What do they know about Fukushima?

On my questions such as ‘why not working in Shanghai?’, he smiles at me, raises the hands and describes the landing scenarios, a movement of a plane, arriving on a beautiful island in the ocean with natural resources and sponsored job opportunities in a modern world that suffers from a lack of young people willing to start a second life. …Sayonara! Good night, China.

Sorry, they workers did not prefer to be on a photo due to this actual and unique case of labour exports to China’s neighbour…

International testing of the service quality (letter logistics)

‘Logistics is complicated’ especially for insiders who might believe this…
Please read and comment…

Believe it or not – sending a letter by express mail for example from a metropolitan city in Southern Asia (for example in Hong Kong, Guangzhou or Shanghai) lead to new sales arguments in order to make ways of transportation longer although it could be shorter.
The real problem behind is that the guarantees have become a burden for most of the carriers, kerosene prices increased, labour cost also and thus the margins are lower. Nowadays you might hear arguments that aircrafts have to fly via Southern Asia to Northern Asia and from there with a stopover in South Korea to get the tanks full.
Then further statements that the transportation within Europe by freight carriers might take up to two days from locations that are close together (less than 400 km). This takes in reality less than half an hour by air mail which the clients are paying for. They do not use the BER, the unfinished airport or logistics centres that are disturbed by passenger traffic.
The biggest point however is then the fact, that mailing services have to transport urgent letters by extra cars that will need for transports less than 15 km needs round about 12 minutes.
As a result, you might re-think why letters who might need maximum 18 hours transportation are delivered in 72 hours only. Is this a strategy to satisfy clients or get them to pay higher prices?
Testing, how long letters might take then we use today QR Codes linking to this website. Feel free to tell us the time and place where you have seen these letters.

This is a surprise… suddenly more than 50 decision makers arrive here to visit the | Metropolitan | Upper Rhine | Region |, announcing visits of the European Parliament and the nice location of Strasbourg city in Eastern France.

Focusing also immediately on the green energy capital of Baden-Wuerttemberg, Freiburg im Breisgau, the group will ride quickly after lunch along the highway number A5 | for sure no speed limits or controls | this group will also pass thereby at a unique and special area of interest: a former military airport that was recently announced, you believe it or not, for sale.

Unfortunately a sad story, however now, with all the important winds of change and great talks, held in more than two or three languages, it can work well for the Metropolitan Upper Rhine Region in the centre of Central Europe. Cheers! Santé! Salud! Zum Wohl!
