China is far from the most advanced country but China had developed in such speed that no other country in the history can be matched.  However, mentality and mannerism cannot be changed or improved over night and that may take much longer time to do. But this doesn't mean we only concentrate on the negatives in China but must recognize the positives.
虽说中国距离世界上顶尖发达国家还很远，但中国发展速度之快却是无可睥睨的。虽然，一个国家的精神意识和文明程度不可能在昼夜之间发生质变，但这并不代表我们必须盯着中国负面的内容。我们也应该看到中国的进步。

Why is there no will power to build trains like this in the US! Can you imagine being able to get from NY to LA in 2-3 hours?
为啥美国就没人想修建高铁呢？想想看吧，从纽约到洛杉矶只需要2-3个小时！

I'm from Iran. I had a chance to visit China 3 years ago and fortunately had a trip with fast train from Shanghai to Beijing. It was a fantastic experience for me. Fast much more than 300 kilometers per hour but no shaking in your seat. Everybody has his opinion but for me the best advantages to use fast train in there was the view of nature like the river and green lands that I saw during my trip that I couldn't saw if I had trip by plane from Shanghai to Beijing.
我来自伊朗，3年前曾去过中国，并有幸搭乘了京沪高铁。那真是一段美妙的经历！高铁每小时可达到300公里的时速，却一点也不抖。对于我来说，坐高铁最棒的优势在于可以沿途看看河流和绿地这样的自然风景，如果我坐飞机从上海到北京，就看不到这么美的风光了。

U.S. and Canada is busy on how to figure out how to fleece taxpayers and not build anything. In Toronto, they argue for over 10 years to extend 5 miles of subway tunnel. In China they build while in the west we talk and point fingers at each other. And also in US and Canada we build useless bureaucracies to enforce stupid and irrelevant business unfriendly regulations. That's why the Chinese and other Asian countries are getting ahead as we stagnate.
美国和加拿大都在忙着从老百姓身上抽税，却根本不知道该拿钱去干什么。在多伦多，为了修建一个5英里长的地下隧道，他们喋喋不休争吵了10多年！当我们这些西方人B个没完忙着互相指责对方的时候，中国却在干！人！事！还有，在美国和加拿大，我们把钱都扔给了那些毫无用处的官僚机构，让他们制定出愚蠢又无关痛痒、不利于商业发展的规章制度。这就是为什么中国和其他亚洲国家能够领先止步不前的西方的原因！
