So we finally set off for mainland china on the 4th day... we took a ferry to Pangyu, Guangzhou where i saw this machine that's probably used for security purpose at the custom...not exactly that high tech but i was really intrigued by the english instruction...i guess this is how english would be written the chinese way...
Me and Sophia looks on when the waitress put down our first plate...it was the first official meal in a restaurant that we've had on the trip (all the previous meals are either free-time meals or university food) so i dunno wat to expect...i can tell u it wasn't classic..but it's definitely decent... We then visited this HUGE university town/city...this place is absoltely enormous...i'd say it's probably bigger than the whole town of tampines and consists of 10 different universities' campus...we attended this talk about the planning and construction of this "education hub" and it's really impressive how much thought and resources the govt has put into this plan...i just hope that they'd continue to give strong financial support to these univerisiies after the project's completion...alot more is needed if this education hub were to fulfill its potential as a place of education excellence.. A map of the whole unviversity town...there are no physical barriers between the different campus so as to facilitate communication among the students of the diff universities...there are also so large scale facility such as a big stadium that the universities would have to share and as such ensure maximum utilization of these big scale facilities...
I think I left my heart in Hong Kong, Ann Arbor, Berkeley, San Francisco, Riva del Garda....
