I have known quite a few ethnic Chinese in my life and known many others who've live in China etc. I've yet to meet one who conciously eats dog meat. Who are the folks eating these dogs? is it a huge problem in China? Maybe some of you Chinese SD'ers can confirm my experience.

Video footage of a two-year-old child run over by a van and ignored by passersby in China has ignited public uproar for what some are calling the immorality of modern society.

Graphic surveillance video of the incident on October 13 and later aired by a television station shows the girl run over by a van, which drives off leaving her to bleed on a narrow street in Foshan city, in the southern province of Guandong.

More than a dozen people over the next seven minutes walk or drive past the girl on bicycles and she is run over by a second truck, state media reported on Monday. A woman then pulls the girl to the side of the street before her mother, a migrant worker in the city, rushes into the frame.

The girl, now hospitalized, is in a coma, China's Xinhua news agency reported, citing doctors. The country's official English-language newspaper China Daily, said the girl had been declared "brain dead" and that she could die at any time.

Both drivers who ran over the girl have been arrested, Xinhua said, but Internet users have flooded microblogs decrying the apathy of the people who left her for dead.

China's economic boom and the growing disparity between the rich and poor have made changing social values a contentious topic, with some lamenting what they see as materialism replacing morals.

On China's Twitter-like microblog service, Sina's Weibo, one user called the incident "the shame of the Chinese people."

"Really, what is up with our society? I saw this and my heart went cold. Everyone needs to do some soul searching about ending this kind of indifference," another user who went by the name Xiaozhong001 wrote.

Many people in China are hesitant to help people who appear to be in distress for fear that they will be blamed. High-profile law suits have ended with good Samaritans ordered to pay hefty fines to individuals they sought to help.

I watched the clip on youtube. This is cold-blooded murder and should be condemned and punished. When the child was hit and ran over by the front wheel of the first van, that driver had a chance to came down and pulled the child away. In stead, he ran over her again by the rear wheel and escaped the scene. Passer-by were just so apathy, they didn't even look at the girl leaving her to dead.
