how to do it Mandarin I'm pretty sure hello hi yeah uh do you speak English are you from China okay yes yes from China China there has been a 920 percent increase in illegal U.S border crossings by Chinese Nationals what has caused this sudden flood of Chinese Nationals fleeing China putting their lives at risk and paying Smugglers up to 50 000 US dollars each just to escape into America now these aren't impoverished people escaping some kind of a war-torn scenario where their country is in some sort of Ruin or they're escaping extreme poverty or something like that no these are decidedly middle-class Chinese Nationals that are being rounded up at the border here they're either being caught or slipping through and the question arises why have we seen such a massive increase in the trafficking of Chinese across not only the southern but also the northern borders of the USA well first let's go back to China what you're seeing here is some footage that was taken a week ago in Beijing outside of the Beijing U.S embassy now these queues that you see these massive cues are people that are lining up for their visa interviews now for those of you who don't know how this works I've been through this process myself is when you want to apply for a Visa to come to the USA be it a tourist visa student visa a work visa whichever kind of Visa that you're applying for there's a very long process it starts out with you setting things up online you have to input all your personal information it's a very very long process but once you've gone through all the online applications submitting all your documents and you know doing all this and that the next thing you finally get to the point where you can then go for your visa interview and that's what you're seeing here people lining up for their interview so what you do is you line up you go inside they take your Biometrics you know they go fingerprints and all that kind of stuff and then you get to see a consular official and their job is to vet you to make sure that you're not somebody trying to scam the system or illegally immigrate or something like that and of course if you have nothing to hide it's a fairly straightforward process I had to go there with my wife and my wife had have her interview separately and I have my own interview you know before we came to the States but I remember while I was standing in line the person in front of me at Chinese National was refused why he was refused I can't say for sure I know he was trying to get a student visa and the Consular lady she looked at his documentation and said you know I'm sorry but I'm refusing your application today and stamp and he had to leave now before we get into the meat and potatoes of why so many Chinese Nationals are illegally crossing the borders into the USA right now here's a word from today's sponsor surf shark the rat race responsibilities hey I get it none of us have time to think about internet security but you know what we don't pay attention to this stuff because we think we've got more important things to do but this is probably one of the most important things that we have to pay attention to in the modern world thing everything is hand Ed on our Internet Security our banking passwords our privacy our personal information everything is right there for the taking for a competent hacker and this is

just the most important thing you should be paying attention to after all go to surfshark.deals forward slash serpents at a to take advantage of this amazing deal and now back to the show so you saw the cues now those cues are small in comparison to some of the video footage and photos we've seen outside of the Guangzhou consulate and other consulates within China U.S consulates and embassies so many people are trying to get out of China right now and go to the USA especially since finally the covert lockdowns are over and Chinese people can more or less freely travel again but what if you refused your Visa like that poor chapters in front of me in line what if you don't qualify for a Visa for whatever reason and there are many reasons that you don't qualify for an American visa they're they're too numerous to mention what if you don't have the means or what if you just don't want to go through the nightmare of applying for that Visa what if you just want to pay for it and get it done what if you just want to pay some money and end up in the United States well that's where all these illegal border crossings are coming from you see Chinese people aren't just striking it out on their own heading to the USA to look for opportunity and arrive on the shores and figure things out no they already have people waiting for them there they already have jobs waiting for them there they already have opportunities that have been lined up for them they just need to get there are these jobs opportunities or family members that they're going to go and meet in the USA are in one of the very large Chinese communities scattered all over the USA you know the Chinese diaspora they've got chinatowns all over the place this is where they're headed ultimately and once they reach these Chinese communities where that job or that opportunity is waiting for them the one they've already arranged before leaving China or where they're going to go stay with family well then they can kind of blend in and live unmolested but why this crazy increase all of a sudden well there's a couple of reasons the biggest one of course is that the lockdowns have been ended in China this crazy situation where people were so controlled that they couldn't move or do anything and they were confined to their neighborhoods confined to their Apartments during the whole covert lockdown thing it's over Chinese people can freely travel again so of course you're going to get a huge number of them leaving all at the same time that's the biggest reason number one the second reason of course is the Chinese economy is taken a massive dive and this is something that you wouldn't know about if you were to read official Chinese propaganda as far as the officials are concerned and the government is concerned China is doing amazing China is so great it's got the best economy they grew during the time everyone was locked down inexplicably and you know what things are great everyone's happy it's got the biggest happiness rating in the world and the most satisfied population ever but of course if the government is trying to tell the people how satisfied they are well you know that they're probably not very satisfied in well they vote with their feet so that's the second reason the third reason is that it's inevitably spreading around Chinese social media like wildfire that even if you are caught crossing the border by the border guards they will release you anyway okay now this is fairly breaking news but Chinese Nationals that are being caught at the borders are being released to ngos non-governmental organizations and they're being released to them with a notice to appear so in other words you get caught crossing the border illegally you get given a hot meal they take you down to the Detention Center they kind of give you a note that says you have a notice to appear in other words appear in court on this day and this day and this day they take you over to the NGO drop you off and that's it you're off you're free and so then they uh go from there and hop on a plane or take a bus or whatever the case and they head off to the New York Chinatown or San Francisco or LA or wherever their opportunity slash family slash job is waiting for them so there's no risk the only risk of course is getting to the border and I'm going to talk about that a little bit because after a bit of research it turns out that a lot of the Chinese Nationals are flying into Ecuador and the reason for this is that Ecuador is one of those few countries that doesn't require a Visa for Chinese people to travel to so they fly there land in Ecuador the smuggling operation has already been set up it's already been paid for in advance from China they meet their Smugglers they get taken across South America all the way to the Border through some very dangerous places by the way but of course they're paying a lot of money so they get the right kind of protection they reach the Border they get told hey don't carry luggage with you wear clean clothes walk in that direction if somebody encounters you smile or you know pretend you don't understand what they're saying just you know pretend it's all natural and off you go but why would middle class people decide to do something like illegally cross a border rather than you know go through the proper steps well you have to understand that Chinese Society is what we call a low trust Society Western societies are usually a very high trust Society in other words we don't expect people to take advantage of things like for instance if you put out some food for homeless people you don't expect a millionaire to drive by and take that free food for themselves because that's not what you expect it's there for the homeless people in China however being a low trust Society it's really doggy dog and if you're not careful you'll get taken advantage of and you learn to work in that system and this system of taking advantage when the opportunity arises because if you don't you lose out so why not take this chance the risk is minimal I mean if you get caught like I said you just get released anyway and so what if you get deported you just try again maybe this time you go through Canada and I didn't even mention that part but there's been a big issue with people crossing What's called the uh what is it called the Peace Bridge Park there's there's this this big Park between Canada and the USA and it's being used now for decades as a way to basically illegal legally cross from Canada into the USA or vice versa and I was reading up on some of the stories but usually what will happen is say someone's working in in Canada and gets deported what they do then is they apply and get a travel visa into the USA go as part of a tour group they go to the USA and then they meet up with their agents who drive them up to the peace Park drop them off they go to the bathroom in the peace park because this park is between the two countries you can actually just walk in between they drop them off they drive through legally because it'll be a citizen of Canada or of the USA drive through and then kind of pick them up on the other side and carry on so you know look this is all about economics and it's all about Freedom when you've got a little bit of money in China you start to realize that the state can take it away at any time the way the country's gone under Xi Jinping has got a lot of people worried it's become very authoritarian it's become very unstable people don't know if their currency is going to collapse they don't know the economy seems to be going down as much as the Chinese government keeps going on about how fantastic everything is people on the ground know that's not true and if they want stability if they want opportunity they have to go abroad and one of the beautiful things about America is that different cultures and people from different backgrounds and ethnicities can Thrive here it's not just happening in America it's happening with every country around the world seeing a massive influx of Chinese immigrants recently legally and illegally I mean just think about it for a second here you don't hear about Americans being arrested at the border trying to cross illegally into China do you and you don't hear about America towns popping up all over China so I hope I've made you aware of something this is very real and it's currently still developing but this massive increase in illegal border crossings by Chinese Nationals is something that is on the rise this is somewhat of a crisis we need to pay attention because not only are there legitimate people running away from bad conditions in China or trying to go for better opportunities in America but there are of course agents of the CCP coming in through these channels too bad people use these channels to come into not just the good people so let's all keep an eye on this I hope you learned something and
