Today a friendly neighbor was bombed and then stubbornly regenerated. Actually, it’s just saying what would not be a problem in 99% of the world.
Information, opinions, even mood actions and timing, are precisely controlled. Ordinary people have followed suit and volunteered to eradicate voices that are inconsistent with the official announcement. Although it seems to be a concerted effort, is it really good for the country’s development?
From 2003-05, I think, I had more dealings with the China Entrepreneur Association because I ran entrepreneur training. At that time, CEA had just started to promote the concept of CSR, and I was also interested in this area, so we organized some seminars and trainings together. At that time, the Chinese enterprises that signed the CSR agreement were mainly central enterprises like COSCO, and private enterprises did not know much about it, and at most they were still at the stage of donating money to charity, and they were more resistant to issues like environmental protection and labor rights.
Later, enterprises have grown larger, internationalized, especially after joining the WTO, social responsibility and sustainable development has become better and better. In addition, the issue itself has long formed a quantifiable international standard for the business world, which has very real benefits for the development of enterprises. Of course you can see it as a trade barrier, like other unattainable industry standards, and try to modify the rules to make them more favorable to your current self, but you can also change the concept to catch up. This is actually a great enhancement to business competitiveness and sustainable development, and reflects the moral code of a company should be.
In short, in those ten years or so, although we saw and experienced many problems and even gloom, but still full of optimism to move forward, but also often selective ignorance of the problem, because think that society is always more and more progressive and open, is moving in the right direction, everything will slowly get better.
Then now, in 2021, NGOs are withering, public intellectuals are cursing, big entrepreneurs say 996 is a blessing, so many people scold the SEC for requiring Chinese listed companies to undergo PCAOB audits like everyone else in order to suppress Chinese companies, clients require companies to comply with basic human rights and moral requirements is the imperialist death of my heart, rather than the grass of socialism Capitalist seedlings want to rebuild the international order. I don’t know what to say.
The outbreak of all this is by no means without precursors, but also the background of the trade war and the profound impact of geopolitical competition. But if you want to win the long run, shouldn’t you be a better version of yourself? The country’s economic development should certainly give people more freedom of choice and higher requirements beyond living, because social development is not only limited to economic development. It is impossible to walk on one leg without falling.
As for going all the way to this situation today, what has happened, how much damage has been caused, whether there is their own responsibility, how to fix it if there is, how to solve it if there is not, or the struggle in the end, what kind of …… are unable to speak up and discuss, not to mention the impact of what. Sometimes it is hard to avoid discouragement.
Someone always asks me how I don’t write about parenting. I, right, now the older the children are the more they let go and don’t put much thought into their own affairs. In addition to being a mom, I’m also a citizen and investor, concerned about society and the economy. Whenever I go back to being a mom, I am more concerned about what I can do to make the world a little bit better for the next generation.
