We are not even discussing the Chinese attitude which lacks a service mentality completely.

"Completely"? Could you expound on this? Is this a traditional cultural byproduct or a result of the decades of Communism? If it's merely due to Communism, why do you believe Eastern Europeans have a greater advantage? If it's perhaps a traditionally ingrained mindset of the Chinese, how do you explain Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan, whose economies are all heavily service-oriented today?
