British born Australian Jerry Grey describes himself in this way on his YouTube Channel “Jerry’s Take On China”:
“Over the last 18 years I’ve lived, worked, married, studied and now retired in China. I’ve travelled about 30,000 kilometres on a bike around China and there are only 3 mainland provinces I haven’t visited yet.
I may not be an expert, no one is and anyone claiming to be certainly isn’t. However, I have opinions, I research facts and I won’t tell you lies on this, or any other channel.
This is my China – the good (mostly) the bad (sometimes) and the Ugly (rarely, China is beautiful and so are the people).”
By the way, Jerry Grey is a former police officer in London and has an MA in Cross-Cultural Change Management.
He also writes articles – mainly about China – on Medium.
In this short video lecture, Grey gives you some perspectives and interpretation which, of course, you never get in the orchestrated Western anti-China (sinophobic) mainstream media. Enjoy!
And then take a look at his Channel.

I’m impressed with the notion that freedom of speech does not give you freedom to disrespect government officials. If you have grievances with a law or policy, you may air them, but you may not disrespect the government.
This is different in the West, where people are free to mock and denigrate their officials. Why should this even be allowed? What purpose does it serve?
