I went to Guangxi, China in 2014, to study Tai Chi for a month. I have to say that I had a lovely time. However, the people there all warned me that if I saw an accident, or anything involving the police, that I should not help, that I should just GTFO as quickly as possible!

They said that the police would inevitably blame me, and I would have spend thousands of yuan in bribes to get myself out of trouble.

I’ve since been to Việt Nam many times, where I have a few good friends. A couple of them have warned me that it’s much the same there. Is that so?
