China Myth Podcast
China Myth Podcast is a self-produced immersion experience of my journey through the fascinating and misunderstood dilemmas of Chinese business culture - a reaction, a behavior, even a suggestion - and asks whether I could have achieved a better outcome with a different attitude, mindset, and approach. Because sometimes, learning how to listen is a lost art of communication.

Hey Little Buddy, this is cultural significance of sports...
Sportsmanship means it doesn't matter if you win or lose!

When American professional athletes are caught in the US, the media calls out the cheater without any reference to the athletes nationality.
