Episode #47: Trip to East Asia 2018 (Part 3--Shenzhen, China)Word of the Day: downpour (noun) a heavy rainEx. We left Guilin, China in a downpour.Question of the Day: Has your hometown changed greatly since you grew up there, or does it still look pretty much like it did as you remember it?This episode tells you about Days 11-13 on Scott and Deborah’s recent trip to China. Join them as they fly from Guilin in SW China to Xiamen in SE China on the Taiwan Strait, then to Shenzhen, in SE China next to Hong Kong. In 1980 Shenzhen was a fishing village with only 30,000 residents-- today it has over 12 MILLION people; that’s 50% MORE than New York City! In China, the phrase “Shenzhen Speed” means to do something at breakneck speed. How did Shenzhen have the fastest growth of any city in the world since 1980? Why are so many “Made in China” goods produced in that area? Why did Scott and Deborah go there? Listen to find out this and more! Have a question or feedback? Maybe a topic you’d like to hear in a future episode? Please email Scott at [email protected]. We’d love to hear from you!
