CHINA – Chasing Government’s ‘Civilized City’ Award Gritty city …
San Francisco Chronicle
tmpl –> It’s all part of a campaign in Guangzhou China’s third-wealthiest metropolis to win the coveted “Civilized City” award – an annual ritual that sparks months of frantic scrubbing and buffing in cities across China. Women wearing red armbands patrol the streets and pick up cigarette butts. Volunteer crossing guards with yellow flags and whistles make sure people wait for green lights. Beggars even those with legs withered by polio are banished from their usual haunts on pedestrian bridges. While some citizens remain skeptical of the cleanup drive it jibes with Chinese leaders’ goal of shifting away from the blind pursuit of blistering economic growth at any cost.
