100 Yuan vs. 1,000,000 Yuan

U wun know how amazing the Chinese can be in difficuLt times.

WeLL of course, we do not want to mention some Chinese superstar basketbaLLer in the U.S who earns SGD 75 miLLion in 2007 yet initiaLLy contributed peanuts to the quake reLief fund, sparking an outrage from his comrades back at home.

The focus shouLd be put on peopLe Like a handicapped begger who is bearLy a metre taLL, having received a 100-yuan note from a tourist, struggLes his way to the donation box to make his contribution of the note he has just received. And aLso a homeLess oLd man who makes a donation of 5 yuan in the morning, onLy to return in the afternoon to make more contributions coz he feLt that his shiLLings were a shame to be contributed and he went to the bank to change for a 100-yuan biLL, and that is everything he has.

The vaLue of 100 yuan and 1,000,000 yuan, now can you see the gap other than pureLy numbers?

Do take some time to browse through the site as foLLows:
