An estimated 250,000 people commit suicide each year in China.Exam stress,career worries and relationship problems are named as the main reason.Suicide has become the main cause of death for people aged 20 to 35.
Well,pressure is everywhere in our life.What do you think about pressure,how do you handle? Smile

hey that is a quite important fact of chinese culture, do you think that is caused by the pressure each family puts on their children? in other cultures like some in europe think different about success...
i am really interested in getting to know as much as i can from the chinese! i am from germany so i a not that familiar with all that.
do you know the city kunming? i need information about that city too as i have to write a report on this topic.
kind regards, bye

Yes,Laniamoon,you are quite right,students in China have more pressure from study.So I think psychology teachers are urgently needed to help students solve their problems.

I am sorry,my hometown is very far away from Kunming.and I have never been there before.But climate and scenery there is wonderful.

Good luck for your report. Smile
