For nearly 2000 years, once something unusual happens, Chinese people rushed to the spot as fast as they can to witness. It could be a magic performer coming to town, a suicide, an execution of a criminal or a street fight. But apart from watching, they did nothing else such as offering help.
Is it a fair description of the Chinese onlooker mentality?
