9 behaviors that put Chinese people on the 'blacklist'

The China National Tourism Administration has just released a clear list of things that tourists traveling domestically and internationally should avoid doing if they do not want to be blacklisted.

According to this list, violators may be banned from leaving China for 2-5 years, depending on the severity of the violation. In fact, the 9 types of behavior listed by the China National Tourism Administration are all drawn from real and embarrassing incidents that Chinese tourists have caused in recent years while traveling both domestically and internationally.

1. Interfere with the operation and safety of aircraft or public transport

There have been many cases of Chinese passengers causing flight crews to panic by arbitrarily opening windows or emergency exits on planes.

The most recent incident was when a 50-year-old woman on China Southern Airlines flight CZ3456 from Chongqing to Shenzhen opened the plane’s emergency exit, mistaking it for the bathroom door. The incident caused the flight to be delayed for several hours.

In the past few years, Chinese airlines have often encountered ridiculous situations because passengers arbitrarily opened airplane windows for very "unreasonable" reasons such as fear of airsickness, to get fresh air...

2. Destroying public works

Just over a month after opening, Shanghai Disneyland has become a top destination in China, but it has also been a source of chaos and confusion.

The trouble comes from tourists littering, trampling on trees and flowers, and some parents even let their children pee right in the playground.

3. Insulting local traditions, culture or living habits

Recently, Malaysian police arrested a 33-year-old Chinese man for taking nude photos on a tourist island in the country.

State criminal investigation department chief Datuk Salehhudin Abdul Rahman said about six men and four women were involved in the nude photo shoot.

"The suspect visited Semporna town many times, bringing groups of Chinese tourists to dive on the islands surrounding Semporna island," police said.

Those arrested could face up to three months in prison or a fine, or both.

4. Destruction of cultural and historical relics

A Chinese teenager while traveling with his parents in Egypt "innocently" carved the words "Ding Jinhao was here" in Chinese on a wall painting at the sacred Luxor temple.

Ding Jinhao's actions sparked a wave of criticism on Weibo and Sina in China. Most people expressed their dissatisfaction with this thoughtless and disrespectful act. Ding Jinhao's parents had to apologize for their son's actions, admitting that they had failed to educate him properly.

5. Engage in gambling, prostitution or drug use

In 2014, thousands of Chinese police raided 12 prostitution dens in Dongguan, Guangdong province, and found many tourists there.

China Central Television (CCTV) spent 30 minutes broadcasting the scene of scantily clad women taking to the stage at a brothel in Dongguan city, while managers introduced customers to the services.

6. Threat to public safety, personal safety or property

Three Chinese passengers brought a fake gun onto a plane to take a photo. The photo immediately caused a stir on the internet. Many people called the behavior of these three young men stupid.

According to the regulations of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, passengers carrying guns, knives and fake weapons are all considered smuggling.

7. Damages the environment, breaks wildlife protection regulations, and threatens the safety of animals and plants

The photos above show a female tourist climbing Shanghai's famous cherry blossom tree to take photos.

Immediately after being spread on social networks, many people called this woman's actions "shameful" and "uncivilized".

"Chinese people living abroad are called 'Chinese pigs', while those living in the country are called 'Chinese monkeys'," one netizen commented.

8. Insulting beliefs and symbols of worship

Officials in China's Shaanxi province have urged tourists to respect ancient Chinese beauty after a series of vulgar photos were circulated online.

The incident began with a nude statue of Yang Guifei, one of the four great beauties of China, built next to a hot spring. However, many tourists took the opportunity to take pictures with vulgar actions.

In a desperate attempt, the resort staff hung a sign "Please take photos in a civilized manner" in front of the statue, but it was of no use, and unthinking tourists continued to take photos.

9. Other types of behavior that cause negative impacts

The image of a Chinese female tourist traveling in Hong Kong casually defecating at a subway station has shocked many people.

The photo was taken by a local resident named Wong at Tsim Sha Tsui station. The two were identified as Chinese because they were communicating in Mandarin.

What shocked Wong even more was that both of them seemed completely unashamed even though dozens of other people were looking at them.
