True investigation of a country requires a lot of time and effort, you have to live and feel the people here, reading reports will not give you a true understanding even it's based on facts. Unfortunately, statistically most western journalists now are extremely biased as it comes to politics. They are writing things for you to read, not for us. They will write things that you will understand and you will like, even if they tell lies. There are many examples of how western journalists made fake reports on Xizang(Tibet) and Xinjiang. That does a lot of harm to China's politics and diplomacy in the world. So if a foreigner wants freedom, he/she should prove to deserve it. I think now many foreigners in China get almost the same level of freedom as Chinese citizens. As to uniting the country, in Chinese history, every time when China is united as a whole, people get better life. Once divided, wars come, that is a whole disaster to Chinese people. There is always a force in China to make the country unite, that will make the whole Chinese people's lives better. You see, even EU is uniting European countries, unite brings greater good, though not everyone of 1.4 billion understands it. Sorry, here, we can't let everyone shout his voice out. As to "I'm pretty happy and hopefully everyone else is too", no I didn't say that. Actually, I'm not that happy, and everyone in China is not that happy. But you have to see what we are worrying about. I have traveled around the country and lived in many cities and in the countryside(I have many relatives there), and I have quite a few friends from Xinjiang and Xizang(Tibet) too. For now, if you don't live in deep mountains, your life quality will be good. Food good, cloth good, water and power supply good, hygiene condition good. But there is still a lot of improvements to go, we don't want merely good, we want fantastic. So we are all worried how to make more money, work harder get a better job, when can I buy my own dream flat, how to teach our children better, how to make our parents happy. I think worrying about these kinds of problems is much better than worrying about the problems of refugees in Syria.
