chinese people don't hold doors open for nobody?

In many Asian countries, people do not feel the necessity to hold doors for the people who are coming after them. This is because it’s assumed that most would prefer to walk at their own speed rather than walking fast to reach the door being opened for them. Also, Asians simply do not regard holding doors as an important part of being polite. So, experiencing almost everyone holding doors for the next person here in the United States - it’s heartwarming.


-think i found the reason

the funniest incident i've witnessed with asian drivers was an

old[x]
chinese[x]
woman[x]

driving a car near my university and i saw a student riding a bike next to her in the bike lane when she turned on her right turn signal to indicate she was going to turn into the next parking lot
i made a mental note that this was not going to end well and sure enough she turned right into the guy and hit him - luckily it was a low speed collision and the guy got back on his bike and kept on pedalling but it was funny as hell :lol:
