Polish people have no presence in China and most people are confused!

I was reading many of the threads and posts and it feels like when I was In Poland 30 Years ago.

I left the Poland then to heaven - Canada.

Long story short, it is not, but it looks good. Since than I have been traveling to most Asian countries and now live in China for the past 5 years.

Whats is wrong??, Polish have no presence here and most people are confused, except the rich guys that send their kids to play Chopin.

English and German have enormous presence, socially and commercially, and based on what I read, we Polish are so distracted, and to me looks like a complex - of not letting some things go.

I am at owe here now how my Chinese friends are managing here with all the issues here. But, surprisingly, they live a very devouted family life and all is about having a baby and all gp are helping.

Guys, what is wrong? Are we Poilsh, just so stuborn and worry about little things like a carp for Christmas?

I was reading some posts about Polish in Uk and discrimination, is like what the #$%%, of course it is like that, people are protective of their envirnment, we need to find the space and give space.

I will finish for now, but if there is any Polish expat in Shanghai, please let me know.

I don't understand you. Do you have impression, looking from your perspective, that Poland looks like a resource of cheap labour or hinterland of Germany, or what?

Jacek, can't You see that You notice inferiority complex?
I don't understand it. If You want to see a brighter side of Polish reality, just start from Yourself. In the page is somehow described how foreigners (mostly) and Polish people who are abroad, see Poland. In many cases the picture is a bit pale and a bit exaggerated, but for haeven's sake, maybe this is your personal interpretation of the view? Maybe You remember Poland this way, and actually You have a difficulty with noticing some optimistic, new, modern, interesting, fascinating and filled with pride observations of many people who love and admire the country?

I am not sure what you're trying to say. 'No presence here", where? in China (since you currently live there), on PF? True, not too many polish posters from Poland. Where do the rich Poles who send kids to play Chopin live? Chicago? Warsaw? Shanghai? London? I'm sure there are a few.

I hope you don't just believe in everything you read here (PF), they are simply opinions of a few individuals, whether they are good or bad, based on their experiences, or what they read in a shady paper or website. Is (was) there an issue with Poles in UK or USA? Sure. But is a mainstream problem? Nope. Few incidents here and there.
So, what's your real beef?

Poland could strategically and logistically make it's presence better known in the next twenty years. The countries with the greater influences. Germany and Britain, have gotten their products out and have accepted a lot of immigrants so people in other countries no more about them.
