People of All Classes Try to Flee China’s Repressive Society, Seek Refuge in European Countries

A leaked document revealed that some Chinese politicians, billionaires, and criminals obtained Cypriot passports by investing over $2 million in the country.

In fact, Chinese people from different social classes are trying to flee China. Besides immigration through family or work visas, wealthy Chinese have invested their money abroad, while ordinary Chinese or those with less financial resources take the illegal route.

The U.S. Migration Policy Institute reported on Jan.15 that 2.5 million mainland Chinese immigrated to the United States legally in 2018.

Meanwhile, more and more mainland Chinese immigrated to Canada, Japan, Australia, South Korea, Singapore, European countries, and many developing countries, according to the United Nations Population Division.

“In fact, both rich and poor mainland Chinese are trying to immigrate overseas legally and illegally in recent years, based on the information I received from China,” U.S. based commentator Tang Jingyuan told The Epoch Times in a recent interview. “Mainland Chinese share the same fears.”

Tang explained that the Chinese regime’s social credit system and tight restrictions on internet speech have made life in China increasingly stifling. “We can see that Chinese people don’t even have basic human rights.”

The Chinese regime installed a gigantic surveillance system that employs facial recognition and other technology to assign each person a social credit. With a low score, a person can be punished with restrictions on public transportation or where their children can go to school.

At the same time, the Chinese economy is in bad shape, which was acknowledged by Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang.

“We witnessed that the Chinese regime used the name of reform or developing a new region as an excuse to take away rich and middle-class people’s houses, factories, and so on. People feel that their property might be taken away

The Chinese would be a big improvement for Europe over muslims.

and I didn’t know millions were coming here. They are hard workers that keep to themselves but they do vote Democrat.

Please no one tell me you know someone or someone who knows someone who is Asian and they are hardcore republican. It is not the norm.

I think it can be but it is not right now.

I don’t get it. Even my own people the Sicilians and Italians came here because it really sucked.

Then they voted socialist for a generation and Democrat for another. Now they are solidly in Republican camp.

I pray the same happens with Asian folks

Yes, we have a lot of them here in Los Angeles, So Cal. They are hard working and industrious.

And their new Chinese foodie enclaves I n their LA neighborhoods draw papparazzi from mainland China to gawk at the new trendy Chinese culture.

In fact Chinese-American food has become a fad in the mainland... even though their authentic regional food here is out of this world!

No!! Chinese eat so healthy. Anything hyphen American food is always much more fattening. :)

I know. I ate Italian food growing up. Then when I moved out I ate Italian-American food mostly.

Italian food is MUCH, MUCH more healthy and nothing like Italian American foods..huge heroes, big pizzas with loads of cheese etc.

I bet the authentic regional food you eat is Great And Healthy.

I hope they stay true to their roots with the food.

Cuz Chinese American food is delicious but a lot of grease and very fattening.

We Americans seem to like things extra tasty and extra fattening :)

How ironic :)

Well they eat so well that a treat once a week won’t do them any harm.

Either that or there will be a lot of fat Chinese in a few years :)

What an interesting fact. I had no idea.

Even though I have family in Sicily, I have no idea if Italian American food is eaten in Italy/Sicily.

Now I have to find out :)
