    Chinese are fine when they leave that shithole called China. If you ever visit Asia, try Singapore or Taiwan (the real China). I'm pretty sure you'll have a better experience. And if you are in Spain don't waste your time with chinos, jode a las chinas que no chinchan tanto y estan bien curiosonas...

    An China, my opinion of them as 'honourable and honest people' is vanished forever.

    What a disappointment.
    Although the Chinese may not be involved much in violent crime (Triad gangs notwithstanding), they are often on the vanguard of fraud and various white collar crimes.

    Russians too, I would say. I think these are intelligent societies that have not managed to channel that intelligence into ordered development, for whatever reason, so they use it to enrich themselves illegally.

    Although I would add that Russians, both at home and in the West, tend to be more prone to gangsterism and alcohol-induced violence than the Chinese.

    "most honests" are also the richest ones in Europe, but Poland, that is among them and is not so rich, so I would say that Polish are the most honests in Europe.

    It would be a more complet study if we know origins and social status of people who didn´t return the wallet, you know, turists, inmigrants, gypsies...

    Do you think poverty increases dishonesty or not? Maybe not as a factor in itself, but mixed with ideals coming from outside, it leads to corruption, dishonesty and throwing each other under the bus. What do you think?
    Otherwise, on its own, it had the opposite effect. The humble hearts of villagers is an example.
