Electric wheelchairs become new means of transportation. This strange phenomenon cleverly utilizes the blank space of current traffic management regulations.
This must be attributed to increasingly stringent traffic management policies. Some cities plan to implement policies that prohibit the use of electric bicycles in urban areas, making electric wheelchairs a seemingly more convenient alternative.

Personal opinion: This matter is not something worth being happy about. The current traffic regulations seem to be designed to serve the automotive industry and give cars the maximum driving rights for this purpose. Unfortunately, the current number of cars far exceeds the carrying capacity of cities. For this reason, our dear government has chosen to let those who do not use cars make way for those who drive them.

There have been some forest fires in Zhejiang according to my acquaintances (I have videos over whatsapl but dont know how to share in sdf), does anybody has connections to Zhejiang? When I was there last time pre covid in summer it seemed quite humid, doesn't this disencourage wildfires? Or ist just the air humind but the soil dry?

Zhejiang is trying to be the green model for chinese rural and enviromental rejuvenation, yet from what I have seen the local fire department was a bit overstressed by the size of the fire in the video I saw

US$500 to secure ancestral grave burial rights
  • Poor rural men who cannot get a wife fork out cash to ‘actresses’ for fake nuptials in bid to secure cushy afterlife
  • Tradition has it that burial in a family’s ancestral grave ensures you will be ‘looked after’ in death
The magazine Phoenix Weekly reported that “one-day marriages” are trending in rural parts of Hebei province among single men who long to enter their ancestral grave after they die.


In some areas, superstition holds that men who are too poor to attract a wife – often disparagingly called guanggun or “bare branches” – cannot be buried in their family gravesite or enter the ancestral hall.
This could damage the family’s feng shui and curse them with generation upon generation of single men.

Many believe men who are allowed to enter the ancestral grave will be looked after by the family’s offspring and enjoy paper money and other objects they burn for them in the afterlife.
