Chinese electronics company Xiaomi donates tens of thousands of masks to Italy, and quotes Seneca: “We are waves of the same sea, leaves of the same tree, flowers of the same garden”.

Did I miss something O.o? Didn’t know about this.
but how real is the note?
I acknowledge conditions are poor in some areas, but I remember reading about a forged note once. We have no way of knowing if some of these notes are pranks, or if they’re legit.
I like that these notes make people think about working conditions, but we have no way of knowing which are real.
“Everybody liked that”
and places like hong kong were forced to donate their masks reserve to china, its good pr move i guess
same
Attacking individuals for being of Chinese descent is bad, but to what account is China held for spreading another potentially deadly virus around the globe?
I have to be careful with this thinking. I’m American, and whenever our president pets a puppy or whatever people cry out that he did a good thing and try to use it to excuse his evil.
I love what Xiaomi is doing, but I don’t know enough about them to want to only think this is PR.
Apparently Nike and Apple do so too according to that link, do you hate them too?
ok, make your own phone, sew your own clothing. There is not one single good company out there, everyone is evil.
Except that masks probably do jack against something as small as a virus
Wow. Awesome of them
Especially as it’s not an airborne transmission – in most situations its via touching a contaminated surface and then touching your own eyes/nose/mouth. A better donation would’ve been bars of soap and telling people to stop being gross and lazy and to wash their hands properly.
#Giorno here. And I’m here to say thank you for xiaomi’s big help on my country and I’m appreciated it. (Sips)
This great quote is from, Bahá’u’lláh, the Founder Prophet of the Baha’i Faith, Not the Roman Philosopher, Serenca. Please make this correction of attribution to this great quote dear Chinese electronics company Xiaomi. “Ye are all fruits of one tree, the leaves of one branch, the flowers of one garden.” – Bahá’u’lláh
What Bahá’u’lláh means by this is that the whole world should be like one big family and we should all be loving to one another.
But no donations to your own Wuhan doctors and nurses, who are forced to improvise with household material.
…pets a puppy = good person, what?
Their initial response was lacking, sure, but the strong control measures they instituted at the end of January bought the world many weeks to prepare – weeks that have clearly been squandered by many governments. Shouldn’t other governments be held to account too?
But, does it have Bluetooth?
4G Band 28 please or no deal.
Didn’t China complain about excessive travel restrictions for Chinese citizens into foreign countries? So how do you figure that other countries wasted time for preparation? If they should’ve immediately begun to stockpile equipment and masks, that would have put more pressure on China as well who was/is facing shortages.
While youre absolutely right, it’s still a useful move. I wish they cared about the millions of bugs they release with so called “stable” versions. (I’ve just seen the post here about the Mi a2 lite lcd getting fried by the os)
Other nations sat on their hands the first two months and perhaps laughing about the virus outbreak. Travel restriction is one thing, screening travelers coming from affected regions is another thing.
Look at Taiwan. They are so closed to China yet their screening process is effective. They didn’t ban any countries from flying there, they did mandatory screening and 14 days quarantine for travelers in heavily infected regions. They banning face mask export and starting producing face mask. Mind you their population has a habit of wearing face mask when they get sick to prevent spreading viruses or bacteria to others where western nations don’t.
What I’m trying to say is other nations had two months to prepare but they didn’t take the opportunity.
>…laughing about the virus outbreak
That sounds like the sort of imagination of a 50 cent army juvenile.
You’ve left out several other things. Its also a small island which makes it easier to monitor people entering and leaving the country as compared to the US/Europe.
Taiwan has an efficient single payer healthcare and a well run pandemic team run by the VP who worked as an epidemiologist before joining the govt administration. A federal office (NHCC) was set up purposely to coordinate govt efforts for future crisis like pandemics after the SARS epidemic, and use new technologies like big data. All that requires alot of effort and foresight and cannot simply be set up in a matter of months. So its not simply a matter of screening visitors and making more face masks like you claim.

China otoh prevented the WHO from entering the country and hid important data like the identify of patient zero.
Wuhan residents shouted abuse at a visiting politburo member, so when Xi visited Wuhan, police entered flats to prevent the same thing from happenning.
Except that Xiaomi did make donations to Wuhan doctors and nurses if you know the facts. They are donating to Italy now that the epidemic is being brought under control in China. Yes, many doctors and nurses there WERE forced to improvise at the peak of the epidemic, which overwhelmed the medical system in China then as it is overwhelming the medical system in Italy now. The tide of the epidemic in China has been turned, though, as active cases have dwindled and the doctors and nurses there are now generally well supplied.
It all happened fast. The epidemic exploded all of a sudden in China, catching the country off guard. The country has turned the tide, sooner than virtually anyone could have expected. Many lessons to learn, both good ones and bad ones. So you can be excused for not knowing the latest facts.
All the masks donated by the U.S. were intercepted by China Red Cross (CCPee affiliated) and were given to government officials instead of Wuhan hospital staff. The remainder were sold off online at high prices.
I thought that you’d be interested in facts. I guess that I was wrong. I’m not interested in politically motivated accusations based on cherry-picked rumours or poorly-cooked imaginations.
I am only interested in facts, not lies from 50-cents army.
Lol. this is true. They attack people who look chinese or let’s just say. Asians. when in reality it was a german who brought the virus in italy and an Italian who spread the virus. 😂
This is excellent. That quotes actually a paraphrasing of Baha’i scripture. [https://www.reddit.com/r/bahai/comments/ffr4ox/chinese\_tech\_company\_xiaomi\_paraphrases\_the\_words/](https://www.reddit.com/r/bahai/comments/ffr4ox/chinese_tech_company_xiaomi_paraphrases_the_words/)
You should get some help for that TDS you’re suffering from.
