I feel truly happy for this family when I found at the end of this video that both dad and mom were able to find jobs in LA, and their daughter got enrolled into a local high school.
@@Jdiehsofy th-cam.com/video/ukkLIFQWG4g/w-d-xo.html& Its the same thing but from a month ago. So it essentially is a repost. Guess they edited it down to farm views lmao
What a gut wrenching story. They seem to be able to maintain a positive outlook throughout their journey. Their resolute and tenacity are what got them through, I imagine. Glad to see them eventually made it and are now settling down. I can not fathom what the 13 YO kid has to go through. I wish this family the best.
@@danielwells774You clearly are unable to distinguish between asylum seeking and normal illegal immigration. People have been escaping communist countries and religious persecution for a hundred years. There is no way to "legally" immigrate, the way your weak little mind imagines it, because their country of origin wouldn't allow it. You think a communist nation or a dictatorship is going to happily allow families to apply for asylum in another country but just hang out at home waiting for it to be approved? Think again. That's why America and other Western nations have always allowed asylum seekers to escape from their home countries and await approval while in the US (or other Western nation.)
Do you know why some of these people want to leave mainland China? Many of them are actually trying to escape massive debts from gambling or failed businesses, avoiding their responsibilities. Some have criminl records and can’t find legitimate jobs. That’s why they secretly take their families and leave. They bring their kids along because criminal gangs are less likely to harm families with children. In reality, it’s nothing like the noble reasons they boast about in their videos. They don’t deserve sympathy, and you shouldn’t let their stories mislead you.
@@caseychan7158 It's implied. And you implied that. .. And for you to mentioned "support her husband" as though she does not benefit from the endeavour and sacrificed everything. Women should get over yourselves.
I’m a Chinese living in Canada for one decade, This is insane, I don’t know their conditions in China, but all of my relatives and friends have very good lives in China much better than my Canadian life. But every one has their own story and own choice . Good luck
@juneyi187: How does medical care and education work in China? Is education free? Is the cost of living reasonable for everyone? What are the pros and cons of health care in China? Cost, timlieness/speed of appointments, diagnosis, treatment, preventative care, acute emergency care?
China has very low wages and that's the biggest motivator for people who want to leave the country. In the U.S they can work a restaurant job for 11 hours a day and make 4.5k a month as a cook. When you spend all your waking hours and days working you won't even spend any of that money and then after a few decades you'll be able to buy a house.
@@ponuni In this case it appars the reason to leave is religious. The US is extremely over-rated. Many foreigners move her only to realize they made a mistake and there is no more "American Dream" because it is not possible to attain. That was decades ago. I'd like to hear the response from *@juneyi187*. There is a lot of mis-information in western media that demonizes China. Foreigners living in China and visiting China are learning just how misinformed they have been. Many staying longer than planned, planning on future visits, or planning to move to China because it is better than the United States or the UK.
I watched their journey on a different YT channel. It was pretty intense and dangerous, but im so glad they made it safely. Some of the others drowned or got captured by border patrol or immigration.
6:41 In Chinese, "我害怕死了" doesn't mean that I'm afraid of death. It's just an exaggerated way to say "I'm really scared" or "I'm terrified." It’s a common expression used to emphasize extreme fear, not a literal fear of dying Another example is "我緊張死了," which means "I'm extremely nervous" or "I'm so nervous."
China has a 9-year compulsory education system. If parents do not send their children to formal public or private schools for education, it is illegal and they will be fined.
It’s pretty ironic their daughter attending catholic school was so “important” they’d “walk the line” for that “freedom”, but now they’re in the US the girl’s just enrolled a regular local high school 😂
@@pinkcichlid that ridiculous term of freedom is the result of the brainwashing program in some Catholic churches. Unlike China, Catholic is legally recognized here in Vietnam but they are not satisfied, they still get angry and go to the road protesting to call for "freedom" and complain about how they were "suppressed" when the government plan to zone some of the church's land for schools and public construction.
There was a Chinese woman who wrote that she and her kid diverted to Mexico after leaving China by air. They bought air tickets to Tijuana, joined a ‘tour group’ there who dropped them near the border and they just spent 20 mins walking to the US border. Total cost is less than $10k.
@@LillyLite Not sure about the visa issue but there are Chinese who go to Mexico for holidays as well. I’m just curious why she seems to be the only one taking this route because it does look feasible
As a Hongkonger lived in mainland for 10 years plus I didn’t really see the reason they are moving outside because of church ? Church is definitely allowed in mainland. Even if you don’t appreciate the way Chinese education systems work. You could always pay premium to enter international schools that are operated inside mainland.
they just pulled up "christian" and "anti communist" card to get green card, they forgot they look chinese , I wonder how long before they got beaten up randomly in US
I am a foreigner who lived in Mainland China for a few years not in Hong Kong. I’ve met some people who think seriously about leaving others who are actively trying and some people who I think contemplate it quietly. Not universal, but a huge aspect of discontent is the pressure to conform (often focused around some aspect like religion, politics, social norms). You see this also in how many people who leave for the West become disillusioned because that pressure still exists just differently and I’d say substantially less. If you don’t understand it’s usually because you either naturally conform, do not mind conforming, or view it as an obviously worthwhile tradeoff. I think many comments here are missing the sincerity of these sentiments. You perceive religion as allowed, but that’s conditioned on conformance. Virtually every religiously active person I’ve met in China perceives thieve conditions as being actively adjusted depending on individual and collective action.
the parent are adult, they can do what they want with their life, but putting their 13 years old daughter's life at risk, I really doubt it. what if something happen to their daughter? they still feel their freedom? I have been living in US for 20 years. now in Canada for 30 more. US is not what they think.
Agreed. They have a safer life in China where women can walk at night alone and feel safe. *Freedom to feel safe* walking around does not exist in America like it does in China. Watch videos of foreigners living in China and foreigners visiting China. Then you'll understand.
I just searched online and with their Passport they could have saved almost 90 percent of their money if they just booked a flight from shanghai to Nassau in the Bahamas because theirs visa free travel to the Bahamian country not to mention it;'s also the cheapest flight compare to other Caribbean countries and the closest to the us.
Ask Ai Wei Wei. He was loved by Americans when he was anti China. When he voiced out against the Isrealis war against Hamas and Palestinians…..he was sidelined. His shows were cancelled. Western propaganda can be very persuasive. Anyway, I wish him the best of luck.
dont you all find these fishy ? 1. these illegal immigrants allowed their faces in the camera , and whole world could see it including the US customs. 2. during critical time in Mexico- US border control , the cameraman just recording freely like nothing happened. 3. their chinese accent is so so weird 4. remember guys this CNA news channel is the one who promote MRNA Pfizer vaccine and bashing chinese sinovac vaccine which proves much much safer than MRNA vaccine
@SivalinPuthery Your complaint here doesn't seem to be about freedoms, but about safety. More freedoms=more risks. More safety=Less freedom. The challenge is to strike the right balance, and different people have different ideas about where that balance should be. It seems clear that Americans value freedom higher than safety. They believe that safety is the responsibility of the individual, while the government should guarantee freedom. Most Asian countries value safety higher than freedom.
This is an amazing and deeply touching story. I even started googling if/how I could help them when I was watching the show. Wish them the best. They are everything this country is all about.
The grass is always greener on the other side. Reality will set in after a few years in the US. The cost for education, medical etc are astronomical. Then they will face racism in the US, which they never experienced in China. I wish them well in their new lives, in the US. God bless them - may they achieve their goals & dreams. Best wishes from Australia 🇦🇺
As an Australian, I think immigrants have a better shot here as our health and education are cheaper plus I like to think that we are less racist, well racism isn't socially accepted. Wish this family the best too.
Church is definitely allowed in China and in fact I attended Catholic church many times. I'm suspicious in the underground church he mentioned, probably one that influenced him on political views, where rightfully church doesn't talk about politics. Hope CNA can uncover more about the real purpose of leaving, surely not everyone left for the same reasons
@@pavedmaloney1157 CNA is pretty balanced when it comes to reporting on foreign news. Also CNN has nothing to do with CNA. CNA is a Singaporean media company.
let me list some main reasons below for you: 1. for less competition, more money job opportunities 2. run away from heavy debts due to failed business or gambling 3. brainwashed by media that the US is the heaven 4. stuck in a political fight with CCP
It's crazy how as a Chinese Canadian, I have a much higher quality of life in China every time I visit - while these people are risking their lives to come to North America for religious freedom
There is no religion restrictions in China. They only say this because they know this is what the west and western media wants to hear. And they say this because they think it acts in their favours when it comes to US Home Office.
America is not as same as 20 years ago…. I hope these people won’t be regret…. I am not saying china is good and perfect. No place in this world is perfect. At least all my family and friends are living in good live in China. I see more and more people are willing to move back to China and even retire in China.
You sure about that? I've seen the exact opposite because there is no opportunity for a solid future in China. Yes, we have many recent Chinese immigrants here in the United States. I hope that we get more Chinese!
@@everydayisabadday no place is perfect. Like California, many people leave California but also many people move to California. Everyone has different needs. I see and I know more and more people in America and Canada want to move back to China for retirement. Recently a lot of foreigner visit China and like it. Tons of TH-cam videos are about that. Some did move to China. Also, I think a lot of Chinese still thinking USA is like the old USA. They have no idea what the real USA look like right now. It is not as easy as they think. I also heard some people tried to give the false information and try to make money by helping these chinese come to USA. I hope these people won't be regret and really find the better life
Yep, one of my cuz married a Chinese because her visa is expiring. She now makes 4figer, he makes just as much. Both are quite beautiful couple, but she would never change her status to be a US citizenship as all her families are living really well in China and she still want to be able to return to her home w/out complication.
I'm Chinese living in Mainland China. I work as a teacher, my life here is not good, and not bad, just so so. I don't understand how good life is in the US, why it's worth risking their life to go there like the family from Chengdu. I'm from Sichuan too. I will never do that like the family in the show. Whether I like China or not, I will always live in China, and take the good and the bad. Luckily things are getting better in China.
You are a patriot. People need to stay in their country to work and better the lives of their countrymen. If everyone wants to leave and just go to an already developed country then that causes an excess brain drain and hinders the advancements of the country they’re leaving behind. This is partly why third world countries tend to always remain poor. China progressed greatly in the past few decades right? However there are some people who thinks they deserve more.
@@shinbi6009whats wrong with people who think they deserve more? And who are you to judge others thinking what they are worth? Everyone should be free to make and decide on what is best for their own life.
@@FF-ti6xu I lived in the US for 20 years, left in 2020. Life in the US is not easy at all, especially when you are an immigrant from another country. And healthcare and dental are very expensive. I dont think that moving from China to the US right now is getting a better or easier life.
They don't seem to have thought through or planned through the trek, as if driven by blind faith and supposition. I hope they do well after such trials and tribulations, but the reality is, if you ever been to the States, based on their skill sets and naivety , it will be an uphill battle in the USA, more so I guess vs their hometown. There is something odd about their recounting of their story, why di the parents send their daughter to an illegal "Church" school when the education system , like where they are from , Cheng Du, are a relatively well developed region with well funded free public schools. I feel again it is religiosity at play here, warping what could have been a good life in China. It does seem the family is relatively well off judging by how they could afford many amenities at the start of the journey. And at the same time, the parents did not once mention economic hardship at home... the power of Hollywood and word of mouth, I guess, chasing the "American Dream". So this was documented before the current context... I think America is headed towards a repeat of the "yellow peril" era, due to their policies and politicians. Its going to get tough for such Chinese immigrants
China is definitely not the paradise as advertised, but if you compare it to Africa/Southeast Asia/South America/Mexico, then China is indeed a paradise. He definitely learned his knowledge from TH-cam. As we all know, there can't be church schools in China. It is a very bitter memory for China, which reminds people of the story of the Opium War.
@@亦先汪 Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, it's his choice, but I suppose his blind faith and gamble got the family there. On the other hand though, he could well had imperiled his family, like the corpse they reported to have seen. Its definitely blind faith and dumb luck. I guess, based on your opinion, from your comment, you also agree that his decisions are based on poor judgement, clouded by some religious sentiment that is not grounded in reality. I bet the dad got into trouble with the authorities, not because he attended a "church" school, but because he prevented his child from attending school and getting an education. This, I recall, is illegal in China. Again, this hints of some form of serious disillusionment on part of the dad. Plenty of people in China gets a formal education, but end up still practicing Christianity, attending Church, and live a life without harassment from the authorities. It goes to suggest that, the parents must have a pretty extreme religious minded position, or a warped sense of "politics or freedom" to end up deciding to prevent a child from attending schools, and in turn go about making religion the central motivation for taking such a dangerous trek to "freedom". I watch somewhere (a video by a UK expat in China) that the government of China has no beef with Christianity and Churches, but are vehemently sensitive of any religion that has accult tendencies, or sends religious adherents against the state. I guess, the only indoctrination is reserved for the State, like any nation, USA included. If we take a deeper analysis into this family's story, I guess it's also a way for the family to get a "get out of jail free card to the express lane to get asylum in the USA, just by citing the "CCP" for "persecution". I'm sure the USA immigration agents would have been excited to have a case like this. Makes good propaganda out for USA. But that's said, still glad the family found their "religious freedom" in the USA and have their child in USA public schools and have some starter jobs in USA. It's clear they just didn't fit into China's "collectivism with Chinese characteristics". Most Chinese citizens who wants a different type of life and political system would have worked hard for it, and migrated the official way, but this family probably didn't have the heart, mind set or the means to do it that official way. Perhaps they're too fixated with their perceived "persecution" which sidetracks them into dangerous missions like this.
I think it was fear of the government or religion since the CCP hates religion. They have the money to survive but they don't want to live no more in a government constantly putting them down
I hope the family makes it and have a good life in the US, stay strong! This documentary shows us to be grateful to the things which are normal for us but a blessing to someone else
this father likes to do illegal things. send his daughter to an illegal church. then going into US illegally. I bet he is wanted by authorities in China for illegal stuffs. That is why he is desperate to leave China.
Normal han chinese were 4th class in China - well below foreigners/officers/minorities. And obviously they are not citizens - they are residents as the national ID shows.
@@choongta when they will discover about education quality security problems and indebtedness maybe they will change their mind... Not.. They are too religious.
I'm American and Christian. I'm very blessed to be to be able to practice my faith without persecution in this nation. But for foreigners coming here for economic opportunities. You better really have a serious plan because America is expensive and daily living expenses like rent, food, cars ect are outpacing wages here. Many Americans are financially struggling, let alone a foreigner with a language barrier, no work documents, even if your educated, your education may not even be accepted here in America. Putting you at the lower end of wages in this society...sometimes you may be better off where your coming from if you invest the same time and money into improving where you are in the nation your born in. Choose well.
They're gonna work for other Chinese immigrants who own Asian restaurants. There's not going to be a language barrier. Most Chinese immigrants don't end up working in farms and construction like the Hispanic ones because they work for their own people who came before them.
They were evicted and basically under persecution. Sometimes they won’t even be able to work. So honestly I get why they took the risk and I pray for their journey, and that God extend his in their favor.
"Your education may not be accepted here in america ..." no truer words are written. My father was a pharmacist, educated and graduated from the University of Columbia, USA but he migrated overseas for many decades before returning to the U.s.. By that time, his qualifications from the U.S. and overseas equivalents, were no longer recognized in the U.S. and he would have to retake the exams to re-qualify is he wanted his licence in the U.S. Also, my sister graduated as a medical doctor, specializing in geriatric medicine from the University of Singapore which qualifications are even recognized in the U.K. - but not in the U.S. So, someone from China with little to no english speaking background, little to no qualifications, little money, no connections, sneaking into the U.S. with no legal documents and where the hiring of illegals is actually punishable by law - wow. The thought is staggeringly amazing - these people are either delusional, foolish, naive, and gullible all wrapped up in one nice neat package - or really, really desperate - and I tend to think that they are in the former "nice, neat package". In any case, let these discover the truth for themselves. China already has far too many mouths to feed and clothe and losing a few thousand dis-satisfied malcontents, is no loss and definitely no pity or even prayers for them.
In leftist states like CA, they'll get free housing, food, medical care, even a funded debit card, etc....all on tax payer's money! While we have homelessness all over SF and LA, the illegals take precedents over citizens here.
I watched the whole 3-part doc. It's nice to see this family have all gotten jobs or are in school. They may not get rich, but I think they will do fairly well over the next few decades.

thats the biden government for you, on the basis of "human rights", the democratic party is friendly to those who reach our weakened southern border. if you have the means to make it as a non-american to cross the border, do it now, while trump is not back in office. trump is going to be hard on border immigration thankfully, and will only allow for a merit-based immigration system.
It is CNA, what do you expect. Check their content and most of them are reporting the dark side of other countries. It is the government way to indirectly telling Singaporean how good Singapore is
It’s amazing how strong they were together but this breaks they heart, they are leaving their home country just to find freedom, it breaks my heart to even think of them suffering from the robbery that occurred. Cheers to a better life to them🙏🏽

A rash man who risked his family's safety.. at one point of their journey, the entire family was strip-searched by bandits which a woman of their party disclosed while his wife/daughter remained silent and he looked embarrassed.. I hope the wife/daughter were not sexually assaulted.. how traumatizing it must have been for the young teenaged daughter and what a irresponsible rash father to subject his family to this. If God made it so difficult, maybe He doesn't want you to go. USA is poor now and racially biased, he has not gotten his facts right. I cringed every time this rash man speaks. Remember "only fools rush in" ...
The USA is not poor or racially biased. The USA is one of the richest countries in the world and one of the least racist and most accepting of immigrants. However, we do not want people who try to come here illegally. Follow the law or don't come. There is also a housing crisis here, so we don't want too many people to show up and make it worse.
I watched the entire 3-part documentary. It was something I’ve never seen before. The anxiety as they keep progressing towards the border and the changes in their appearance shows that they’ve been through a lot. It felt like a movie except it’s not a movie, it was real life. I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

When they enter the US, they want to be caught, because the justice system is very lenient on illegal immigrants. They'll be let free until their court hearing date. There are many activist organization that will sue the police or border patrol if they get arrested.

Most PRC people are 'fake religion believers', some may have certain level of faiths, but only about 20% or 30% compared to those who truly practice religions. These '润‘ folks are true Christians, which is why they wanted to flee, just as Uighurs who are largely true Muslims, and Tibetans and Mongolians are true Buddhists. CCP promotes atheism and doesn't like to see religious faiths, which is why they have been continuously removing contents about Taoism, Buddhism, and so on, from PRC media websites.
For a family from Chengdu they never spoke a single word of the Sichuan dialect, and their Mandarin had absolutely no Sichuan accent. Hmmmmmmm..........................
The father has spoken Sichuan dialect in other videos, and through his accent, it can be determined that he is from Sichuan. However, Chengdu has legal church schools, but his daughter attends an illegal one, which suggests they might be involved in a cult.

Church schools are indeed illegal in China because the government forbid preaching to citizens under 18. Even parents taking children to religious places, except for tourism reasons like visiting a popular ancient temple, is technically not allowed. Although this is not strictly enforced apart from Xinjiang. Anything related to the Falun Gong stuff like "organ harvesting" is with hearsay evidence at best, if not straightforward lies. But underground Christian/Islamic schools and the banning of such schools is a real thing in China.
Im happy that they are okay i watched the previous of them as a filipino its really heart breaking to see people doing these things just to get out of china because of their beliefs and many more 🥺🥺🥲🥲🙂🙂😇😇😇💞💞💞 thank you LORD for the protection
I know many commenting here will not understand, but I’ll try to explain as simply as possible to those who have an open mind. Christianity is “legal” only on a superficial basis in China, which is ruled by an officially atheist CCP. There largely exists two types of churches in China - the state sanctioned church and the underground church. To belong to the state sanctioned church, you must fundamentally acknowledge that the CCP government is the authority above all else, including Jesus. To belong to the underground church, you simply believe that Jesus is Lord. The CCP authorities will of course say that religious freedom exists in China and cite the large number of state sanctioned churches, without ever mentioning that many underground church leaders have experienced various forms of discrimination, hardship and even jail terms for simply trying to live faithfully according to what the Bible actually says, that God is supreme over any human government. On that basis, I completely understand the father’s desperation to get out of a country that may be wonderful for any atheist who doesn’t care, but a prison to those who to wish practise their faith freely. I don’t know if California is the best place to run to because there are other negative influences for people of faith to be aware of, but there you go…
While the educated know that thousands of Americans live in China, MOST ARE CHRISTIANS including me - I'm a Roman Catholic from South Africa with the BRICS. YOUR UNCLE SAM'S BOGEYMAN CCP, which is the CPC COMMUNIST PARTY OF CHINA, was founded by the partnership of the SOUTH AFRICAN COMMUNIST PARTY in 1921, due to the fact that the fishing village, RESOURCE-POOR HONG KONG, was built by the BRITISH RULE WHO IS ANGLO AMERICAN INVESTMENTS founding partners of OPPENHEIMER GROUP, who founded the FIRST AFRICAN CENTRAL BANK in South Africa, controlling ALL AFRICAN CENTRAL BANKS. It's no big secret that the RESOURCE-POOR HONG KONG was built as a free-market capitalist model with an exceptional smuggling port providing the world with blood-diamonds and conflict minerals from the African continent, powering the dull currency Hong Kong dollar tied to the RESOURCE-POOR UNITED KINGDOM Pound and then to the RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES dollar since 1983. Therefore, the RESOURCE-BASED COUNTRIES BRICS RISING AS A MULTIPOLAR WORLD rejecting the US dollar reserve status will have Uncle Sam's puppets commenting on CCP B.S. Uncle Sam's puppets DON'T KNOW THAT THE RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES dollar is FORCED on resource-based countries as the WORLD'S RESERVE CURRENCY, powering the WORLD BANK funding NATO military weapons investments from the time of the BRETTON WOODS AGREEMENT. ALL THE RESOURCES WHICH THE RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES DEPENDS ON FOR ELECTRONICS, TECHNOLOGY, AND MILITARY WEAPONS INVESTMENTS ARE FROM AFRICAN AND MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES WHO HAVE JOINED YOUR UNCLE SAM'S BOGEYMAN, COMMUNIST BRICS (Brazil, RUSSIA, India, CHINA, South Africa representing AFRICAN UNION)! MAKE UP B.S. for your Uncle Sam ALL YOU WANT, the resource-based countries BRICS and BRICS PLUS (AFRICAN and MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES) are rising strong without the US dollar, which in effect has caused the RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES to have an over $30 trillion federal debt, with the economy affected by galloping inflation. Surveys reveal Americans are 3 paychecks from being homeless. It is no surprise that educated, wealthy Americans have been transferring their investments to the low-tax haven China, with the BRICS investments --- while YOU'RE POOR typing B.S. online with a technology device provided by resource-poor United States tech corporations dependent on manufacturing in China, with the resources from African countries. Further, YOUR BOGEMAN CHINA BELIEVES IN BUDDHISM, and with firm belief in REINCARNATION, no different from the SAINTS OF CATHOLICISM and Judaism. There are karmic effects of being your Uncle Sam's puppet as a capitalist plague on the earth's resources, like Judaism and their belief that the modern-day Roman Empire is the United States, which is scheduled to collapse, and most souls who didn't have good value while on earth will descend to the animal kingdom, with lesser world populations dependent on capitalisms destroying the earth. THE CHRIST WAS NOT A CAPITALIST!
As my father and mother are both Mongolian immigrant came at 2006 after soviet disaster they have achieved to buy a first house since 2021. They never had a good work or easy job both worked hard. I wont go specific through it but you can think an average salon jobs or truck. Yes America is not that easy to live but when you spend less, dedicated to sticking your job you will be deserved to be lived. As my parents bought first ever home in America with little loan I think it’s possible.
This is strange, China is rising by the day and economic conditions are getting better there. Here in the US a house costs about 600K, thankfully we can print as much money as we need and issue loans, but that may come to an end soon. I'm sure that living in china is cheaper, so why make such a stupid move.
because Western media is so powerful. Many Chinese who have never ever gone to America believed that America is a perfect place to live. On the same time, most western travellers who came to China were shocked that China is much mo better than they thought according to western media.
Because China media was beautifully covered up and masked so the people who lost hope with China will no longer trust whatever China media say. They hope America can give them a better life. Right now only usa have the ability to compete with China without fear. Too many smaller countries have to really bow to China due to survival.
Here you see people zhou xian desperately leaving china, but on the other side of the world like kl, bentong durian farm, redang island, kk, , semporna you see so many china tourist are happily traveling.

Vietnam used to have this kind of people back in the 70s and 80s. They are call boat people. Many are not even oppressed but are too politically indoctrinated, baseless fear or simply looking for better economic prospect led to rash actions. Many sadly lost their lives and families at sea due to murdering pirates and natural disasters. Trading your life is never worth it, let alone entire family, sadly this is a very common state of mind in developing countries.
I was a boat people escaping from Vietnam in 1987. What you said is partly true. Back in 1980s and 90s Vietnam was no different than North Korea: No private business, food ration, citizens have no right to move where there were jobs etc...In a word Vietnam back then was an authoritarian state in its true sense.
@@thumtlnguyen3626 Glad that you made it safe. I've heard gruesome stories from former refugees about the hardship they went through at camps and of the pirates who attacked ships in the Gulf of Thailand, robbed poor refugees of everything they had, left people stranded on uninhabited islands with no foods and water, only to come back a few days later to rape and kill again. It's stomach churning the horrible ordeals journey many people went through and how the international community did little to help protect them from pirates. In Vietnam, it was indeed a hard time economically due to post war struggle, destroyed infrastructres, poverty and sanctions, but at least it finally has peace, life was safe and there werent anything disastrous like famine. Luckily as policies got reformed a few years later, life's got significantly better since. My heart goes out to fellow Viets out there. It was such a dark time in history, a pointless war and humanitarian crisis that shouldn't have happened in the 1st place, had the foreign powers didnt pushed the Cold War into Vietnam and forced Vietnam on its last leg to fight for her rightful sovereignty.
"From the frying pan into the fire" is the first thought that came to mind about this family's story, coupled by, "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence". This family has absolutely NO IDEA what it is really like living in the U.S. without much money - and health. They see only the bright side seen in TH-cam and Telegram - social medias. They didn't talk to actual Americans who fled the U.s. to live in China and there are many of them in the larger cities. My own parents supported and went to the U.S. from Malaysia because of my father;'s fond memories of a U.S. he was educated in as a young man - in the mid-1930s and 1940s but certainly altered into an uglier side by the time the 1980s rolled around. He remembered great U.S. Presidents like FDR, but never thought that his successors would be radically different to his social policies. My father died from cancer in the U.S. - discovered too late because he didn't have enough money for regular medical checkups and he was declared "too old with pre-existing conditions" for insurance companies to want take him on and so, he had no medical insurance. This is one of the realities of living in the U.S.
You have absolutely no idea what it is like living in China. Certainly worse than living in the frying pan. Oh yes, they know what the US is like, from the constant propaganda of their government about US shooting, drugs etc.
"They didn't talk to actual Americans who fled the U.s. to live in China and there are many of them in the larger cities. " 😆😆😆 CCP leash is too tight! Your brain is generating nonsense!
Also to be fair what do you think would your father had as treatment back in malaysia at that time ?xD cure dor cancer? Or maybe a insurance ye boy same i dont think so aswell Till this day only 54% are insured in malaysia but yes it wasnt the cancer it was the bad treatment that killed him i can see that for sure like are you for real that delusional ? Btw im not from America im just asking these questions bc i realy want to know how retarded a person needs to be for such a comment xD
The American dream is only wonderful because it stay in dreams aka while you are asleep. I won't give up my citizenship for my usa bf even thou we dated for years. He will move over to Singapore after his medical school residency.
a SG passport is incomparable to a Chinese one lol but asking or insisting your bf to move to SG after medical school might be harsh for him since he'll likely have to pay off LOADS of tuition debts and I doubt that income in SG as a junior doctor is sufficient to pay off the debt compare to working in the US, so good luck with that 😅

Excuse me most of the people from the Philippines come here either petitioned by their family or work as nurses. Like all my relatives and including me we have professional working VISA as nurses. My relatives came here in the 60's and 70's. My grandfather came here before WW2. He worked in the farm here in California. How about your forefathers? How did they arrived here in the US and you????
I do not support illegal entry into any country. If you have a dream, then work hard to achieve that dream of yours, instead of risking your life to enter illegally into any country. I have many mainland Chinese friends who worked and studied very hard to achieve their dream of entering USA and Canada. It's B.S. to say the only way is to "Walk The Line".
Hard times make strong people 💪. As a boat person, I get my strength from challenges of life. I wish this family the best. And Lucy will do great 👍. The land of opportunities is where this family will thrive.
I am consistently amazed, and a bit proud, to live in a country that draws such brave, passionate and hopeful souls! To literally walk away from your birthplace…? Hard choice.
China is 1.4 billions people. Its fierce competition. Try to live in hongkong and buy apartment there . Its very tough . Sydney australia still cheaper then hongkong
I understand wanting a better life… everyone in the world wants a better life. But what about all the Chinese who are in line to migrate the lawful way? This family broke laws to come to America, they should not be praised. Breaking laws does not come with a reward. More than likely they will be deported at some point and not allowed back in to America ever again.
I hope this family are continuing to be well. Such a perilous road to freedom. God be with those who try. It must take a lot of soul searching to choose to voluntarily leave one's home country, with your family, in search of a better life, in such a way. The danger, stress, and torment. Thank God for any kind soul they meet along the way. Religious persecution is a terrible thing.
When you become legal & able to finally work brace yourself to experience working 12 months but get paid for 10 months bc your wages for 2 months go to huge taxes. No 13th month pay or mid year bonus. Get ready to have 3 to 4 jobs to make ends meet & survive. Welcome to United Stress of America!
How come they didn’t insist on sending their daughter to religious school now that they’re in the land of the free? I thought that was the whole point they left China.
atleast they have opportunity in the usa. its stupid to stay in a country where there is no opportunity. you wouldn't understand but your ancestors did.
BS. I've lived for 20 years in both China and America. America is paradise compared to China. Cleaner, safer, more beautiful, more free, easier to work and make money.
Interesting to see what people go through to try and get to America. Crazy. Especially when life here is not as wonderful anymore as many hope. I'm also amazed by the dad being so focused on his religious belief, but his religious belief system does not keep him from breaking laws.
Soy de Guatemala y atravesar México es sumamente complicado, mis respetos para esa gente que se arriesga a hacer esos viajes tan riesgosos en busca de libertad. Ojalá todos encuentren lo que buscan.

Are you happy for them committing a crime?
@@danielwells774You clearly are unable to distinguish between asylum seeking and normal illegal immigration. People have been escaping communist countries and religious persecution for a hundred years. There is no way to "legally" immigrate, the way your weak little mind imagines it, because their country of origin wouldn't allow it. You think a communist nation or a dictatorship is going to happily allow families to apply for asylum in another country but just hang out at home waiting for it to be approved? Think again. That's why America and other Western nations have always allowed asylum seekers to escape from their home countries and await approval while in the US (or other Western nation.)
@@danielwells774 worldly crime*
Do you know why some of these people want to leave mainland China? Many of them are actually trying to escape massive debts from gambling or failed businesses, avoiding their responsibilities. Some have criminl records and can’t find legitimate jobs. That’s why they secretly take their families and leave. They bring their kids along because criminal gangs are less likely to harm families with children.
In reality, it’s nothing like the noble reasons they boast about in their videos. They don’t deserve sympathy, and you shouldn’t let their stories mislead you.

@juneyi187: How does medical care and education work in China? Is education free? Is the cost of living reasonable for everyone? What are the pros and cons of health care in China? Cost, timlieness/speed of appointments, diagnosis, treatment, preventative care, acute emergency care?
@@violetviolet888 Everything in Canada sounds good only, but in reality it is not.
China has very low wages and that's the biggest motivator for people who want to leave the country. In the U.S they can work a restaurant job for 11 hours a day and make 4.5k a month as a cook. When you spend all your waking hours and days working you won't even spend any of that money and then after a few decades you'll be able to buy a house.
@@ponuni this is not life , only alive
@@ponuni In this case it appars the reason to leave is religious. The US is extremely over-rated. Many foreigners move her only to realize they made a mistake and there is no more "American Dream" because it is not possible to attain. That was decades ago. I'd like to hear the response from *@juneyi187*. There is a lot of mis-information in western media that demonizes China. Foreigners living in China and visiting China are learning just how misinformed they have been. Many staying longer than planned, planning on future visits, or planning to move to China because it is better than the United States or the UK.
I watched their journey on a different YT channel. It was pretty intense and dangerous, but im so glad they made it safely. Some of the others drowned or got captured by border patrol or immigration.
6:41 In Chinese, "我害怕死了" doesn't mean that I'm afraid of death. It's just an exaggerated way to say "I'm really scared" or "I'm terrified." It’s a common expression used to emphasize extreme fear, not a literal fear of dying
Another example is "我緊張死了," which means "I'm extremely nervous" or "I'm so nervous."
China has a 9-year compulsory education system. If parents do not send their children to formal public or private schools for education, it is illegal and they will be fined.
So they can indoctrinate kids
It’s pretty ironic their daughter attending catholic school was so “important” they’d “walk the line” for that “freedom”, but now they’re in the US the girl’s just enrolled a regular local high school 😂
@@pinkcichlid that ridiculous term of freedom is the result of the brainwashing program in some Catholic churches. Unlike China, Catholic is legally recognized here in Vietnam but they are not satisfied, they still get angry and go to the road protesting to call for "freedom" and complain about how they were "suppressed" when the government plan to zone some of the church's land for schools and public construction.
I don't see why you would not send your kids
你在开玩笑把大哥？？？？ 谁跟你说不读书就是犯法还会罚款 压根没这回事
There was a Chinese woman who wrote that she and her kid diverted to Mexico after leaving China by air. They bought air tickets to Tijuana, joined a ‘tour group’ there who dropped them near the border and they just spent 20 mins walking to the US border. Total cost is less than $10k.
hello, do u know if they had visas for costarica ?thanks
can they still get visa’s in tijuana?
i’m assuming the only reason why they went so far south is because of visa issues
@@LillyLite Not sure about the visa issue but there are Chinese who go to Mexico for holidays as well. I’m just curious why she seems to be the only one taking this route because it does look feasible
As a Hongkonger lived in mainland for 10 years plus I didn’t really see the reason they are moving outside because of church ? Church is definitely allowed in mainland.
Even if you don’t appreciate the way Chinese education systems work. You could always pay premium to enter international schools that are operated inside mainland.
LOL
I think it an excuse to get the green card
Excuse and lie
they just pulled up "christian" and "anti communist" card to get green card, they forgot they look chinese , I wonder how long before they got beaten up randomly in US
I am a foreigner who lived in Mainland China for a few years not in Hong Kong. I’ve met some people who think seriously about leaving others who are actively trying and some people who I think contemplate it quietly. Not universal, but a huge aspect of discontent is the pressure to conform (often focused around some aspect like religion, politics, social norms). You see this also in how many people who leave for the West become disillusioned because that pressure still exists just differently and I’d say substantially less.
If you don’t understand it’s usually because you either naturally conform, do not mind conforming, or view it as an obviously worthwhile tradeoff. I think many comments here are missing the sincerity of these sentiments. You perceive religion as allowed, but that’s conditioned on conformance. Virtually every religiously active person I’ve met in China perceives thieve conditions as being actively adjusted depending on individual and collective action.

@SivalinPuthery Your complaint here doesn't seem to be about freedoms, but about safety. More freedoms=more risks. More safety=Less freedom. The challenge is to strike the right balance, and different people have different ideas about where that balance should be.
It seems clear that Americans value freedom higher than safety. They believe that safety is the responsibility of the individual, while the government should guarantee freedom. Most Asian countries value safety higher than freedom.

They don't seem to have thought through or planned through the trek, as if driven by blind faith and supposition. I hope they do well after such trials and tribulations, but the reality is, if you ever been to the States, based on their skill sets and naivety , it will be an uphill battle in the USA, more so I guess vs their hometown. There is something odd about their recounting of their story, why di the parents send their daughter to an illegal "Church" school when the education system , like where they are from , Cheng Du, are a relatively well developed region with well funded free public schools. I feel again it is religiosity at play here, warping what could have been a good life in China. It does seem the family is relatively well off judging by how they could afford many amenities at the start of the journey. And at the same time, the parents did not once mention economic hardship at home... the power of Hollywood and word of mouth, I guess, chasing the "American Dream". So this was documented before the current context... I think America is headed towards a repeat of the "yellow peril" era, due to their policies and politicians. Its going to get tough for such Chinese immigrants
China is definitely not the paradise as advertised, but if you compare it to Africa/Southeast Asia/South America/Mexico, then China is indeed a paradise. He definitely learned his knowledge from TH-cam. As we all know, there can't be church schools in China. It is a very bitter memory for China, which reminds people of the story of the Opium War.
@@亦先汪 Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, it's his choice, but I suppose his blind faith and gamble got the family there. On the other hand though, he could well had imperiled his family, like the corpse they reported to have seen. Its definitely blind faith and dumb luck. I guess, based on your opinion, from your comment, you also agree that his decisions are based on poor judgement, clouded by some religious sentiment that is not grounded in reality. I bet the dad got into trouble with the authorities, not because he attended a "church" school, but because he prevented his child from attending school and getting an education. This, I recall, is illegal in China. Again, this hints of some form of serious disillusionment on part of the dad. Plenty of people in China gets a formal education, but end up still practicing Christianity, attending Church, and live a life without harassment from the authorities. It goes to suggest that, the parents must have a pretty extreme religious minded position, or a warped sense of "politics or freedom" to end up deciding to prevent a child from attending schools, and in turn go about making religion the central motivation for taking such a dangerous trek to "freedom". I watch somewhere (a video by a UK expat in China) that the government of China has no beef with Christianity and Churches, but are vehemently sensitive of any religion that has accult tendencies, or sends religious adherents against the state. I guess, the only indoctrination is reserved for the State, like any nation, USA included. If we take a deeper analysis into this family's story, I guess it's also a way for the family to get a "get out of jail free card to the express lane to get asylum in the USA, just by citing the "CCP" for "persecution". I'm sure the USA immigration agents would have been excited to have a case like this. Makes good propaganda out for USA. But that's said, still glad the family found their "religious freedom" in the USA and have their child in USA public schools and have some starter jobs in USA. It's clear they just didn't fit into China's "collectivism with Chinese characteristics". Most Chinese citizens who wants a different type of life and political system would have worked hard for it, and migrated the official way, but this family probably didn't have the heart, mind set or the means to do it that official way. Perhaps they're too fixated with their perceived "persecution" which sidetracks them into dangerous missions like this.
I think it was fear of the government or religion since the CCP hates religion. They have the money to survive but they don't want to live no more in a government constantly putting them down
They will quickly find out the “American Dream” no longer exist and anti-Asian sentiment is prevalent and violence increasing.

@@choongta when they will discover about education quality security problems and indebtedness maybe they will change their mind... Not.. They are too religious.
I'm American and Christian. I'm very blessed to be to be able to practice my faith without persecution in this nation. But for foreigners coming here for economic opportunities. You better really have a serious plan because America is expensive and daily living expenses like rent, food, cars ect are outpacing wages here. Many Americans are financially struggling, let alone a foreigner with a language barrier, no work documents, even if your educated, your education may not even be accepted here in America. Putting you at the lower end of wages in this society...sometimes you may be better off where your coming from if you invest the same time and money into improving where you are in the nation your born in. Choose well.
They're gonna work for other Chinese immigrants who own Asian restaurants. There's not going to be a language barrier. Most Chinese immigrants don't end up working in farms and construction like the Hispanic ones because they work for their own people who came before them.
They were evicted and basically under persecution. Sometimes they won’t even be able to work. So honestly I get why they took the risk and I pray for their journey, and that God extend his in their favor.
"Your education may not be accepted here in america ..." no truer words are written. My father was a pharmacist, educated and graduated from the University of Columbia, USA but he migrated overseas for many decades before returning to the U.s.. By that time, his qualifications from the U.S. and overseas equivalents, were no longer recognized in the U.S. and he would have to retake the exams to re-qualify is he wanted his licence in the U.S. Also, my sister graduated as a medical doctor, specializing in geriatric medicine from the University of Singapore which qualifications are even recognized in the U.K. - but not in the U.S.
So, someone from China with little to no english speaking background, little to no qualifications, little money, no connections, sneaking into the U.S. with no legal documents and where the hiring of illegals is actually punishable by law - wow. The thought is staggeringly amazing - these people are either delusional, foolish, naive, and gullible all wrapped up in one nice neat package - or really, really desperate - and I tend to think that they are in the former "nice, neat package".
In any case, let these discover the truth for themselves. China already has far too many mouths to feed and clothe and losing a few thousand dis-satisfied malcontents, is no loss and definitely no pity or even prayers for them.
@jessicapenaloza9321 they could go to other Asian countries. But no, they want to go to the USA for economic reasons. They are criminals.
In leftist states like CA, they'll get free housing, food, medical care, even a funded debit card, etc....all on tax payer's money! While we have homelessness all over SF and LA, the illegals take precedents over citizens here.
I watched the whole 3-part doc. It's nice to see this family have all gotten jobs or are in school. They may not get rich, but I think they will do fairly well over the next few decades.
this father likes to do illegal things. send his daughter to an illegal church. then going into US illegally. I bet he is wanted by authorities in China for illegal stuffs. That is why he is desperate to leave China.
这样的智商，去到那里都是穷人！
How the hell is the daughter allowed to go to a publicly funded highschool and both parents work without any restrictions? Also why the hell did border patrol release them?!?!? Nothing here makes sense, like there's no consequences?
China is a free country
They are the “润人”, they left China on their own free will, China won't stop them, and neither should the US border guards
thats American Immigration policy for you lol, its never about Americans first. just need more voters to vote for the "party" that grant you that access, who would u thank once you are allowed to vote? Biden Adminstration. volia
thats the biden government for you, on the basis of "human rights", the democratic party is friendly to those who reach our weakened southern border. if you have the means to make it as a non-american to cross the border, do it now, while trump is not back in office. trump is going to be hard on border immigration thankfully, and will only allow for a merit-based immigration system.

Pretty sure they will give you a ticket wherever you would like to go. 30 years is a long time to leave if you are not happy here and ungrateful.

A rash man who risked his family's safety.. at one point of their journey, the entire family was strip-searched by bandits which a woman of their party disclosed while his wife/daughter remained silent and he looked embarrassed.. I hope the wife/daughter were not sexually assaulted.. how traumatizing it must have been for the young teenaged daughter and what a irresponsible rash father to subject his family to this. If God made it so difficult, maybe He doesn't want you to go. USA is poor now and racially biased, he has not gotten his facts right. I cringed every time this rash man speaks. Remember "only fools rush in" ...
The USA is not poor or racially biased. The USA is one of the richest countries in the world and one of the least racist and most accepting of immigrants. However, we do not want people who try to come here illegally. Follow the law or don't come. There is also a housing crisis here, so we don't want too many people to show up and make it worse.
this is more than a movie story . i wish blessings for all those and specially the family . from Pakistan
I really like Du Wei's accent, please do not stop making such good production documentary. happy to watch other line walker's stories.
I watched the entire 3-part documentary. It was something I’ve never seen before. The anxiety as they keep progressing towards the border and the changes in their appearance shows that they’ve been through a lot. It felt like a movie except it’s not a movie, it was real life. I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

The excuse doesn’t matter. Illegal entry is still illegal and they need to be deported immediately. We have laws that need to be respected.
They are mother and father that want to change a life , when your at your wits end you would do anything . God , why deport them are they aliens ? Are they from another planet ?

So many sad and tragic stories from these journeys. Thank God this family made it .
They're illegal. This is not acceptable, especially to those who wait and gain citizenship. This is pathetic.
I agree. I feel they should apply for asylum, refugee status, or work visa and immigrate legally. How do we know if he is not a cult leader, scammer, or a convicted criminal in China? I don’t want to live with crazies.
Amen, God is always with us. There is no fear. Hope you live well.
I have so many questions lol.. how on earth they got caught twice; including in the US, but then released and could continue their journey? 😮
Because of money dudes
In the US, they will release until the court hearing because the jails are full.
They wanted to be caught in US, otherwise they wouldn't get work permit
In mexico? Corruption
When they enter the US, they want to be caught, because the justice system is very lenient on illegal immigrants. They'll be let free until their court hearing date. There are many activist organization that will sue the police or border patrol if they get arrested.
What a great story. God bless their future in America.

100% cult. You know, those who want your property, body, and mind in the name of god.
Most PRC people are 'fake religion believers', some may have certain level of faiths, but only about 20% or 30% compared to those who truly practice religions. These '润‘ folks are true Christians, which is why they wanted to flee, just as Uighurs who are largely true Muslims, and Tibetans and Mongolians are true Buddhists. CCP promotes atheism and doesn't like to see religious faiths, which is why they have been continuously removing contents about Taoism, Buddhism, and so on, from PRC media websites.

For a family from Chengdu they never spoke a single word of the Sichuan dialect, and their Mandarin had absolutely no Sichuan accent. Hmmmmmmm..........................
The father has spoken Sichuan dialect in other videos, and through his accent, it can be determined that he is from Sichuan. However, Chengdu has legal church schools, but his daughter attends an illegal one, which suggests they might be involved in a cult.

Something tells me the "church school" story was adopted from his research on YT and Telegram.
Church schools are indeed illegal in China because the government forbid preaching to citizens under 18. Even parents taking children to religious places, except for tourism reasons like visiting a popular ancient temple, is technically not allowed. Although this is not strictly enforced apart from Xinjiang.
Anything related to the Falun Gong stuff like "organ harvesting" is with hearsay evidence at best, if not straightforward lies. But underground Christian/Islamic schools and the banning of such schools is a real thing in China.
People need an excuse to do what they do. basically all of them went for economic reason.

I know many commenting here will not understand, but I’ll try to explain as simply as possible to those who have an open mind.
Christianity is “legal” only on a superficial basis in China, which is ruled by an officially atheist CCP. There largely exists two types of churches in China - the state sanctioned church and the underground church. To belong to the state sanctioned church, you must fundamentally acknowledge that the CCP government is the authority above all else, including Jesus. To belong to the underground church, you simply believe that Jesus is Lord.
The CCP authorities will of course say that religious freedom exists in China and cite the large number of state sanctioned churches, without ever mentioning that many underground church leaders have experienced various forms of discrimination, hardship and even jail terms for simply trying to live faithfully according to what the Bible actually says, that God is supreme over any human government.
On that basis, I completely understand the father’s desperation to get out of a country that may be wonderful for any atheist who doesn’t care, but a prison to those who to wish practise their faith freely. I don’t know if California is the best place to run to because there are other negative influences for people of faith to be aware of, but there you go…
While the educated know that thousands of Americans live in China, MOST ARE CHRISTIANS including me - I'm a Roman Catholic from South Africa with the BRICS. YOUR UNCLE SAM'S BOGEYMAN CCP, which is the CPC COMMUNIST PARTY OF CHINA, was founded by the partnership of the SOUTH AFRICAN COMMUNIST PARTY in 1921, due to the fact that the fishing village, RESOURCE-POOR HONG KONG, was built by the BRITISH RULE WHO IS ANGLO AMERICAN INVESTMENTS founding partners of OPPENHEIMER GROUP, who founded the FIRST AFRICAN CENTRAL BANK in South Africa, controlling ALL AFRICAN CENTRAL BANKS. It's no big secret that the RESOURCE-POOR HONG KONG was built as a free-market capitalist model with an exceptional smuggling port providing the world with blood-diamonds and conflict minerals from the African continent, powering the dull currency Hong Kong dollar tied to the RESOURCE-POOR UNITED KINGDOM Pound and then to the RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES dollar since 1983. Therefore, the RESOURCE-BASED COUNTRIES BRICS RISING AS A MULTIPOLAR WORLD rejecting the US dollar reserve status will have Uncle Sam's puppets commenting on CCP B.S.
Uncle Sam's puppets DON'T KNOW THAT THE RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES dollar is FORCED on resource-based countries as the WORLD'S RESERVE CURRENCY, powering the WORLD BANK funding NATO military weapons investments from the time of the BRETTON WOODS AGREEMENT. ALL THE RESOURCES WHICH THE RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES DEPENDS ON FOR ELECTRONICS, TECHNOLOGY, AND MILITARY WEAPONS INVESTMENTS ARE FROM AFRICAN AND MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES WHO HAVE JOINED YOUR UNCLE SAM'S BOGEYMAN, COMMUNIST BRICS (Brazil, RUSSIA, India, CHINA, South Africa representing AFRICAN UNION)!
MAKE UP B.S. for your Uncle Sam ALL YOU WANT, the resource-based countries BRICS and BRICS PLUS (AFRICAN and MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES) are rising strong without the US dollar, which in effect has caused the RESOURCE-POOR UNITED STATES to have an over $30 trillion federal debt, with the economy affected by galloping inflation. Surveys reveal Americans are 3 paychecks from being homeless. It is no surprise that educated, wealthy Americans have been transferring their investments to the low-tax haven China, with the BRICS investments --- while YOU'RE POOR typing B.S. online with a technology device provided by resource-poor United States tech corporations dependent on manufacturing in China, with the resources from African countries.
Further, YOUR BOGEMAN CHINA BELIEVES IN BUDDHISM, and with firm belief in REINCARNATION, no different from the SAINTS OF CATHOLICISM and Judaism. There are karmic effects of being your Uncle Sam's puppet as a capitalist plague on the earth's resources, like Judaism and their belief that the modern-day Roman Empire is the United States, which is scheduled to collapse, and most souls who didn't have good value while on earth will descend to the animal kingdom, with lesser world populations dependent on capitalisms destroying the earth. THE CHRIST WAS NOT A CAPITALIST!
Sounds like a narcissistic Chinese government to me.
As my father and mother are both Mongolian immigrant came at 2006 after soviet disaster they have achieved to buy a first house since 2021. They never had a good work or easy job both worked hard. I wont go specific through it but you can think an average salon jobs or truck. Yes America is not that easy to live but when you spend less, dedicated to sticking your job you will be deserved to be lived. As my parents bought first ever home in America with little loan I think it’s possible.
This is strange, China is rising by the day and economic conditions are getting better there. Here in the US a house costs about 600K, thankfully we can print as much money as we need and issue loans, but that may come to an end soon. I'm sure that living in china is cheaper, so why make such a stupid move.
CCP China is a prison state.
You don't want to live freely?
What's wrong with you?
because Western media is so powerful. Many Chinese who have never ever gone to America believed that America is a perfect place to live. On the same time, most western travellers who came to China were shocked that China is much mo better than they thought according to western media.
I'm sure they will regret their behavior when they arrive in the United States, and they will live in a bad place without working hard.
@@liuantony638how is western media so powerful when western media is banned in China??! The government controls everything!
Because China media was beautifully covered up and masked so the people who lost hope with China will no longer trust whatever China media say. They hope America can give them a better life. Right now only usa have the ability to compete with China without fear. Too many smaller countries have to really bow to China due to survival.

Vietnam used to have this kind of people back in the 70s and 80s. They are call boat people. Many are not even oppressed but are too politically indoctrinated, baseless fear or simply looking for better economic prospect led to rash actions. Many sadly lost their lives and families at sea due to murdering pirates and natural disasters. Trading your life is never worth it, let alone entire family, sadly this is a very common state of mind in developing countries.
🎯So true !
I was a boat people escaping from Vietnam in 1987. What you said is partly true. Back in 1980s and 90s Vietnam was no different than North Korea: No private business, food ration, citizens have no right to move where there were jobs etc...In a word Vietnam back then was an authoritarian state in its true sense.
@@thumtlnguyen3626 Glad that you made it safe. I've heard gruesome stories from former refugees about the hardship they went through at camps and of the pirates who attacked ships in the Gulf of Thailand, robbed poor refugees of everything they had, left people stranded on uninhabited islands with no foods and water, only to come back a few days later to rape and kill again. It's stomach churning the horrible ordeals journey many people went through and how the international community did little to help protect them from pirates. In Vietnam, it was indeed a hard time economically due to post war struggle, destroyed infrastructres, poverty and sanctions, but at least it finally has peace, life was safe and there werent anything disastrous like famine. Luckily as policies got reformed a few years later, life's got significantly better since. My heart goes out to fellow Viets out there. It was such a dark time in history, a pointless war and humanitarian crisis that shouldn't have happened in the 1st place, had the foreign powers didnt pushed the Cold War into Vietnam and forced Vietnam on its last leg to fight for her rightful sovereignty.

"From the frying pan into the fire" is the first thought that came to mind about this family's story, coupled by, "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence". This family has absolutely NO IDEA what it is really like living in the U.S. without much money - and health. They see only the bright side seen in TH-cam and Telegram - social medias. They didn't talk to actual Americans who fled the U.s. to live in China and there are many of them in the larger cities.
My own parents supported and went to the U.S. from Malaysia because of my father;'s fond memories of a U.S. he was educated in as a young man - in the mid-1930s and 1940s but certainly altered into an uglier side by the time the 1980s rolled around. He remembered great U.S. Presidents like FDR, but never thought that his successors would be radically different to his social policies. My father died from cancer in the U.S. - discovered too late because he didn't have enough money for regular medical checkups and he was declared "too old with pre-existing conditions" for insurance companies to want take him on and so, he had no medical insurance. This is one of the realities of living in the U.S.
You have absolutely no idea what it is like living in China. Certainly worse than living in the frying pan. Oh yes, they know what the US is like, from the constant propaganda of their government about US shooting, drugs etc.
