The Shenzhen Evening News has then issued an apology on their official Sina Weibo account for taking photos of Yao after she died on Friday at a hospital in Shenzhen.

The accusation⁷ sparked a debate over media ethics⁸.

Which side are you on?

Topic2 Chengguan VS peddlersAnother controversy⁹ between urban management and vendors¹⁰ has caused heated discussion.

And this incident took place in Hangzhou, capital of Zhenjiang Province. A fruit vendor¹¹ accidentally ran over his own son and killed him when he tried to run away from the chengguan who were on a clampdown mission.

Should someone be responsible?

Topic3 Do you have to get married to be happy?

It will soon be that time of the year when Chinese singletons in their late twenties will be nagged¹² by their anxious parents to get married ASAP.

Marriage as many Chinese see is one of the most important things in life and considered a key to happiness. That's the prerequisite¹³ for parents' urging children to get married.

But is it necessarily the case? Do you have to get married to be happy?

Topic4 Father Questioned by Child Service for Bathing DaughterA Chinese father who lived in New York has been summoned by the local Office of Children and Family Services for bathing his daughter.

This again raises the question of appropriateness and cultural difference on the topic of child care. Is it an inappropriate thing to do?

How big of a trouble is it in the US?

Topic5 Year-end BonusThe lunar year is soon coming to an end, and the most anticipated part for the working class must be the year-end bonus. It has become not only the material rewards, but also means recognition from companies. Around this time of year, people are either flaunting¹⁴ or complaining about the year-end bonus they receive.

What kind of year-end bonus would you find satisfactory?
