去过几个中东国家(非动辄人肉炸弹的国家),感觉民风还比较纯朴。在澳洲碰到的中东人也就是校园里和大部分中国人一样乖巧的学生啦。不过塔利班炸佛和911飞机撞楼后,弄的我上飞机看见大胡子裹头的,心里就犯毛。上了 ...
被西方讨厌歧视的我们是不是继续讨厌歧视那些最后作为我们朋友的国家和其人民呢。
(I will use English since it is much easier and quicker to type. If you have problems, I will switch back to Chinese.)
About discrimination, the West (US, Australia) has very little toward Chinese. I attended graduate school in the US. First my encounter on this issue was that minorities have advantages in getting into universities and employeed. I thought that as a Chinese I might qualify. Be hold! That was for blacks and American Indians; Chinese do not qualify. These laws were enacted to correct past mistakes toward blacks and American Indians.
I have lived and worked in the US for 15 years plus. If you truely understand their culture and language, I feel there is very little discrimination toward Chinese or other Asians. Sometimes cultural clash, yes; discrimination no. Toward blacks, yes there are some.
I have been in Australia for many years. I would say that Australia is probably not as good as the US as far as discrimination against Chinese is concerned but still is quite good. First, US and Australia are under rule of laws. Australian laws do not discriminate against Chinese.
In mid 90's I taught at USQ. It originally puzzled me that the best students at USQ are students from Malaysia of Chinese descent. After going there, I learned that Chinese in Mayalysia were not allowed to attend universities there or worked for good jobs in government. Chinese in Malaysia is a minority about 25%; only 1% or so can go to Malaysia universities. These were in strong contrast with the US and Australia. B. Obama was born in the US. If he was born in Malaysia, he would not be able to attend universities let alone to get elected.
Malaysia actually is a better Muslim country for Chinese. Check out Indonesia. Chinese there have to change their names and for a while learning Chinese is prohibited. There have been several riots against Chinese; you may search to find out. They just kill you, rape you or rob you.
Many Chinese do not understand the importance of Bible and Koran in Western countries and Muslim countries, respectively. Common laws came from these books (also Roman laws played an important role). According to Koran, you will be slaves, or at best second class citizens, if you are Christians or Jews. If you are a Buddist or Hindu, you worship idol and should be killed. If you believe nothing, you must convert to Muslim or to be killed. It is not surprising that Muslim countries do not have laws to guarantee equality and none is an immigration country.
