Why is India so provocative?

A Chinese teacher’s experience in India will tell us that India’s border provocations against our country have aroused continued concern.

Faced with this incident, most Chinese people are very puzzled: Why have their former allies become so crazy?

To invade a place where there is no dispute.

Why is the compassionate and peaceful "Buddhist Kingdom" in our impression so militaristic?

Geographically, China and India have many similarities.

They are both ancient civilizations that originated in large river basins; they both face the sea and have high mountains (the Himalayas - the roof of the world) in their backs.

In such a geographical environment, development opportunities must be "in front of you" and "extroverted".

Keeping up with the trend of the times, China has proposed the concept of "One Belt, One Road" to find development opportunities from exchanges with distant places.

Why did India turn around and provoke from the "rear area"?

Perhaps, this is our biggest puzzlement.

Without investigation and research, we have no right to speak. Let’s look at the article of a Chinese teacher who teaches in an Indian university. Maybe it can answer many of our questions?

It can help us know: Why is India like this today?

Why is this happening?

"Looking at the Cultural Differences between China and India from My Indian Students" Source: Phoenix International Think Tank Author: Zhang Wenjuan has been teaching in India for nearly three years and taught for six semesters.

School became my main platform for integrating into Indian life.

In the past three years, I have taught about 200 Indian students. Young people represent the future. They have become an important window for me to observe Indian society.

(However, it should be noted that this university is one of the most expensive private universities in India. Its students are mostly from the high-income middle class, and are mainly law students. Therefore, it can only represent a part of India's young people. Of course, it cannot

Underestimating the cultural independence it reflects.) 1. A strong sense of rights and a faint sense of responsibility. There are many mechanisms in Indian universities that are not available or rare in Chinese universities.

For example, in Open House, every two months, students organize to communicate with the leaders of the college. Students can raise any questions and the college must respond.

If the school is small, there will also be an Open House attended by the principal to address all concerns raised by students regarding school construction and their own rights.

I once participated in a meeting led by the dean of the law school and attended by other deputy deans and assistant deans on the issues of equal treatment and future development raised by LLB students.

LLB is a degree that is obtained after completing three or four years of undergraduate studies in other majors before studying law. It is similar to the JD in the United States and the Master of Laws in China. Because of the five-year BLLB degree, the traditional LLB degree does not have an advantage.

Students raised many questions at the scene, including their participation in international exchanges, internships, employment, and the advantages of this major in competition with the BLLB major.

It reminds me of the experience I had when I was a Master of Laws student at Peking University, but no matter how much I fought back then, there might not always be an opportunity for all students to communicate with the leaders of all departments.

The students raised questions in a very pragmatic and measured manner. The leaders of each college gave very pragmatic responses to the corresponding concerns. The dean made a decision on the spot which concerns would be resolved immediately, which concerns were unnecessary, and which ones required strategic consultation with the outside world.

Communicate and implement it to the specific dean.

I appreciate this mechanism.

Sometimes, if the communication channels with the college are not smooth, or the school handles things inappropriately, we have also encountered student rallies to protest.

However, if there is a strong sense of rights and lack of relative constraints of responsibility and introspection, it is easy to deform.

My office colleague, who is in charge of academic affairs, has to deal with students who are unable to take exams because of too many absences, who may not be able to graduate because of insufficient credits, who are unable to choose classes because of missed course selection time, etc. almost every day.

Reason to ask for his help.

One of the students impressed me deeply.

His energy was not spent on studying and he did poorly in the exam. However, he insisted that one question in the exam paper did not meet the syllabus requirements.

To this end, the school specially organized other teachers to evaluate the question and found that there was no problem.

In fact, even if he was given full marks for that question, he would fail.

However, he still wanted to solve the problem and insisted on spending money to have it evaluated by an independent third party.

Makes me speechless.

I thought, if I use this energy in study, I will definitely be excellent.

As a classroom teacher, I often have to face all kinds of strange reasons from students: because my good friend’s uncle passed away and I had to accompany her, I didn’t come to class; because I went home on the weekend, I missed Monday’s on call; because I had several assignments,

Therefore, I cannot submit my homework on time; I have to take a week off because of my sister's or brother's wedding; because I have to attend the graduation party, I ask the teacher to finish class early... China's Confucian culture often emphasizes introspection and self-consciousness.

Or it is called self-denial and restoration of rites.

Although we often criticize excessive utilitarianism, leading to a lack of social responsibility.
