This anecdote from an article in New York magazine about why China’s super-rich send their children to America sums up Asian culture today in a nutshell. Asians make stereotypical aggressive New Yorkers look like Quakers:
“When I first drove in Asia, I flashed my signal and immediately people, instead of slowing down, all sped up to cut me off. It was so maddening, and then, after a little while, I became like everyone else. I never signal when I turn in Asia. I just do it. You don’t have a choice.”
